looks very well camogt4 has the same rims on his white 185 and the look amazing in the flesh, i would even consider these as OZ Supert WRC's are a nightmare to clean, these seem alot easier

not at all i got them off of POTN.com to be honest they weren't the best originally i went for 17" but they said they didnt have them in stcok and they wont be getting any for ages so instead i asked about 18" with low pro's they tried charging an extra £100 but after alot of arguing i won and got them at the original price of £670 :) and my mother says moaning gets you nowhere ahhh if only she saw me now lol :D

i wanted 17" as well thats why i had no choice but to get low pro's and it turns out the wheel is smaller now through the tyre being 35mm instead of the previous 50mm

yeah but handling is effected with 18" and it would be a very hard ride now with such a low profile tyre in remember my corolla with 18" on a 215/35/18 and lowered 35mm it was damn sore on the car especially the rims

Yeh, your handling will suffer a bit. I know mine has a problem with tramlining... but they look sweet.

Same as mine!

Good choice  ;D

P.S.

The 35 isnt 35mm, it is 35% of the width of the tyre.
