No problem Cesar! I'm glad you are happy with the new wheels

Nice!!! I can't wait to see shots of your ride with the new suspension. I'll be sure to keep an eye out for the updated pictures

I would not recommend a 255/45/18 tire, this tire size is very tall and will not fit well. If your stock tires are still relatively new then you can always use them on the new wheels (will be slightly stretched). If you are getting new tires then I highly recommend a 265/35/18 tire. This tire size will fit great on the wheels and offer nice performance. It's also just a bit shorter than the OEM diameter so you won't have any rubbing with full lock turns (scrubbing near the sideskirt).
