Kevin B's old wheels, 18x8.5 ET30 with 245/40/18 tires:

It could just be the pictures, but it seems like they stick out more than the factory ones. Maybe the OEMs are 8"?

Loved the wheel itself, just the ET30 was too far out of the wheel well, doesn't look right. Think my new ones are ET35 or 40 and look perfect. But I need to lower mine too, just ordered the Eibachs from tirerack on sale.
