yesterday i try to install Koing Tunner 2 on my coupe and ran into some fitting issue. i orginally had them on my 97 maxima, the guys at townfair tire told me they would fit. the size is 18x5. i tried to put it on the rear first and notice that the wheel doesn't sit right, its more of slanted downward... am i doing something wrong or do i need and offset...?
