honestly im lost i like this rim, but im thinking its to rice. i dont like the cobra's or most of the commen rims, just because they r common. but through your .02 my way.

the rim is a Katana Destiny specs




also i checked the fitment and they say it will fit

also what size should i get. i want 18's that is one thing im certain about.

18x7.5 225/40HR18 NANKANG NS-II $1075
18x7.5 235/40HR18 NANKANG NS-II $1125
18x7.5 215/35HR18 NANKANG NS-II $1125
18x7.5 245/40HR18 NANKANG NS-II $1150

so what do yall think, i was thinking, if i did get this rim do u think they make a wider wheel and what width is good on a 18' wheel "rear only"

Well if you like something different, you might look into some fr500's, cuz they have a very different look. They are borderline ricey, but you stay domestic with them. They look good with 9's in the front and 10.5's in the back. Good luck finding something different. But remember that people use those wheels for a reason.

Well where i live, there are mustangs everywhere, and everyone talks about having something different, and i tell them to buy a damn volvo if they wanna be different. What i'm sayin is that people put cobra r's and stuff like that on them cuz they look good. But the fr500 is a good looking wheel and you might wanna look at those. Chrome looks sweet.

Those are 18's, with 9's in the front and 10.5's in the back. That's the best looking mustang wheel in my opinion that is different from a cobra or something along those lines

Well those 245/40/18's are more than an inch shorter than stock, so unless your car is lowered it will look funny. Those rims are 7.5 inches wide so a wider tire than 245 might not be the best idea.
