So these are cars done by a local shop/whole sale auto lot in SoCAL (riverside, ca) They sell Sportmax 002 wheels so I decided to call them up. I asked him what size they were running on these and he said 18x9 in the back and 18x8 in the front... 1. those sizes are listed on the website, but Sportmax is located here... special sizing. 2. Um my eyes make them look more like 16x8 and 16x7... (he said he didn't know offset or tire size on them off the top of his head)

What do you guys think? Do they look like 18' Sportmax 002?

Those will be fine as long as you have coilovers and adjust the camber to tuck

them in. You will also need to roll the inside of your fenders so that you don't rub.
