Bro, you really need to use the search engine and provide details on the size of the wheels.

if you go with the standard 225/40/18 tires the rubbing will be minimal and as mentioned above, it's nothing that can't be fixed by rolling the fenders. i wouldn't even give a second thought about running 18's over a 17 inch wheel, the difference in look is significant.

How heavy are ADR reactions. I love the way they look but i have a 4 banger and am afraid that they will hurt my already lacking performance.

i believe the ADR reactions are around 24.3 pounds per wheel which is a lot considering my 19x8 are roughly the same weight. there are a number of lighter wheels available for the contour, i know bernie is running Centerline RPM's that only weigh 15-16 pounds per wheel for their 19" rim.
