I thought about getting a yokahama parada in a 225/35/18 and hoping that they would not rub. I think I just might go with a 17" though. I checked on Volk SE37's in gun metal or the TE37's and they were about 1800 with parada tires...which is not bad for how light the wheel's are. I appreciate all the pics and info though.

Are you sure that Volk has the correct bolt pattern? Contour's have a 4x108mm pattern. Most Japanese wheels are 4x100 or 4x114.3mm.

These are 18 X 7.5 ADR Design Reactions they only weigh 20lbs without the tire. Handleing and acceleration for me are better than before. And they are 18's, oh my! 215/40ZR18 Yokohama Parrada tires.

I have a late 98 and my back tires used to rub. My car is also dropped on eibach springs. But I power sanded the fender lips in and cut out parts of the wheel well where it would rub. And now I have no more problems.
Peace
