nicksm3 · 11-22-2014, 03:39 PM

Selling my 18" Apex ec7's and Nitto's..decided to takes some pics of the OEM's ...Looks great but 19's just look to big for me.

personally, I like the OEMs better.......BUT, it could be the white lettering that's throwing me off with the other ones...

yea if i were to get a set for winter setup or track day setup, no questions i'd go for 18s, much better and somewhat "affordable" than 19s

I used the 18's for 2 track days this past summer. 19's I like just not as much as 18's with a nice wide meaty tire. Plus..18" tires are more cost effective. Have my eyes on another set of 18's and a wider tire setup.

yeah I agree with you. I was using OEM 18s for the last 4 years, then recently I switched to ZCPs. While I love the ZCP style, I think the 18s just look better on the car. The meaty sidewalls looks awesome.

the ZCP sidewalls looks really thin in person. I'm committed to ZCPs for now, not sure how I feel in 2 more years, I'm keeping my OEM 18s in case I change my mind. Those EC-7s are the classic Y-styles that I like, similar to ZCPs, I might just buy that set.
