These are 18x8 Interlagos wheels with 235/4518 Michelin Tires. They just barely cleared the steering knuckle on the front so I got 5 mm spacers which makes it look about right.

The suspension is ST lowering springs (Approx 1 inch) with Bilstein HD struts and shocks.

This car also has a 5 Speed Manual Transmission, Malone Stage 1 Tune (soon to be stage 2 now that I think the clutch will handle it), Zimmerman coated rotors and Pagid pads. Balance shaft delete, and tinted windows. I have a couple other things that I want to do to it yet like boost and egt gauges, exhaust modifications, splash guards, and a few other minor things.

The car has 192,000 miles on it. Gets a consistent 45 mpg on the highway.

Very Nice!!! I have a black wagon too, currently getting ready to respray my hood. Other than my hood I have a good paint job. The previous owner had it painted a late model dodge metalic black.

I just got some Samarkands 18's to put on it.
glad to hear the 45 profile fit, that's what I am planning
