Is this a good trade for me?

Me trading: Stock 17's w/ tires, 400 bucks

Me getting: Hyperblack 18x8.5 CSL's w/tires.

Assuming similar tread life and rim condition, yes.

[tay10rrr30GTO]

8000 miles on the rims/tires, no curb rash at all.

Sounds like a good trade to me.

Good deal, yes. But make sure you like CSLs in 18s, they tend to look quite different when their 19s...

[tay10rrr30GTO]

Well I DD and I think 18's would be a lot better for me. Are you saying the 18's look worse?

i am. I thought long and hard about this before getting my CSLs in 19s. I even bought a set of used 19s to test drive to make my decision easier.
CSLs look MUCH better in 19s. Trust me. And the ride difference between 18s and 19s is very minimal. My car is also a DD.
That being said, that's a good deal you're being offered. Just make sure you won't regret getting them in 18s...

Well I mean I don't think I'm going to ever get a deal like this again. He is letting me give him 200 now and pay the rest off, paying for a shop to switch them. I think it's a pretty good deal and I doubt I would regret getting the 18's. Plus I plan on lowering my car and 19's probably wouldn't let me do that without some fender work.

Not to hyjack but did you need to do any rolling or suspension mods to get the 19s to fit? I may be ordering some this week, just wasnt sure.

It is a good deal. Go for it. You can always sell them and get 19s if you regret it. As for 19s needing work to fit, they are no different than having 18s. Even though one wheel is an inch taller than the other, with the tires on, the diameter will be the same. Smaller sidewall on the 19s evens it out.

They are going on this friday. I just got them last week and Im currently doing some work to the goat. Everything should be done friday, along with a good detailing. The CSLs will be the last step :)
Goat version 5.0 is almost complete and will be ready for the OTB GONE show this sunday. Keep an eye out in the appearance section for a thread with a lot of pictures and info.
