They came on some coupes as an option I think, hence the 18" size. These seem to be off an AWD because they're a square setup. 18" looks meh on a Sedan. I'd go 19s.
I have the stock 17s, which to be honest I don't mind much, but there aren't a lot of tire options at this size (no PSS, for example). I tried to pick up the coupe 19s last weekend but that fell through and I'm a big fan of those so I'm definitely keeping an eye out.
the reason why air force bases in japan have curfews
When I was there last summer, some Marine got drunk on Kadena AFB and made his way into a hanger and set off the fire extinguishers on a multi-million dollar aircraft.

Try joining Facebook groups that sell wheels, or check your local Craigslist.

Respect for service.
Hahahaha, we all have M4s (much smaller than the M16) now. I'm 6'1, can't imagine what it's like being shorter.
I've been using the slot for a number of days now, and haven't experienced the problem again yet. I don't believe it's just a key for caddy... have to check the owners manual, though. Er... just did, and not sure what to think. I suppose the real way to check this is to remove the battery, stick the fob in the caddy, and see what happens. I believe the car will start just fine. The manual says if the battery is discharged, insert the fob in the Intelligent Key Port to start the car, so... there's that.

Also if the proximity system for some reason dies or stops working that'll be the ONLY way you can start your car as far as i know.

Good to know. Thanks guys. Tested this out and it does seem that the battery has to be at least present and have a little bit of charge left in order for this to work. A bad battery or no battery and the fob still doesn't work even in the slot.
Fixed the dent/scrape, cant even tell, cost me $150 in materials and 2 days of work.... Body shop wanted 2k for the same thing.... Anyways, put my spacers on. Pardon the dirt, it rained this morning, but yeah, looks a lot better with the wheels flush.
hexotic looks good, can I ask why you only wrapped the rear chrome spoiler and not the window trip as well? Also I have no room to talk, but polish up those tips man

Haha, thanks bud. The front chrome grille and rear spoiler I painted with colour matched black paint. 6 coats+4 coats of clear to match the car. Im planning on wrapping the window trim, just have to find some spare time to do it. I like doing all the stuff myself instead of paying someone, so things sometimes take longer to get off the ground as my free time is very limited.
As far as the tips go, they are polished, we had 30mm of rain fall in like 2 hours during my morning commute, and the car was clean the night before lol. Just have to wipe off the layer of crap and they will be shiny again

Wow that's quite the repair... any close up shots of it finished?
Um, not with the car clean or in good lighting lol. Detailed the car, then got hit by a freak rainstorm that wasnt even forecasted the next day. Ill clean it again this weekend, then snap a photo in daylight. It looks almost like new, not 100% perfect, but a good 95% lol. I still have to spend some time buffing the whole door, its just a bit less reflective than the rest of the car (I had to clearcoat the whole door even though the scratch on the door was so minor). Limitations of using spray cans.... takes a lot of wet sanding and buffing afterwards to bring back the mirror finish.
Im just glad I didnt see who hit my car.... or I'd be doing 25 to life right now.
