Seems like a lot of rubber for 18" rims. Did you use a greater overall diameter than stock?

Mine were on the car when I bought it back in December. I have seen them for sale by a company on ebay. I think the 17's are right around 1k for four.

I got mine from Custom Wheels-Car Rims-Chrome Wheels-Replica wheels-custom wheels-Custom rims,OE for $900. And the guy from custom wheels market said to get 245/45/18 and that would keep stock height.

It must be the new rubber. I pic from just the side would look normal I think.
