It's all about YOUR personal preference and vision for what YOU want out of YOUR car.

That being said, here are some great looking Speed3's:


The black MS3 is sexy. I'm not sure how I feel about the teal wheels and bumper stickers, but sexy nonetheless.

If someone put work into making a Yugo a high performance, reliable car, I'd tell them it was a pointless endeavor since they could've bought a better car in the first place.

At the same time, I would appreciate the amount of work they put into it in order to make it into a respectable vehicle.

Regardless, making a car stupid low on wheels that don't fit is less pointless (wait, hear me out) since there isn't a car that you can buy that comes like that from factory. On the other hand, there are lots of alternatives to buying a Yugo.

Bumpers stickers are covering cracks and damage to the bumper. But I agree, could've picked something not so blatantly ugly. Whatever though, sick car

its 18x8.5 +38 evo x oems, last time i checked he was on KW V1's with custom springs in the back(think no perches), maxed out in the front(not sure if hes still got helpers/perches in) no spacers

not sure about the tires though maybe 225/235? theres minimal stretch if any so thats my guess

Hatchie with the TEAL wheels i think were 225/40 on evo x wheels. Yeah bumper stickers hiding cracks. Helper springs removes in the front. Custom KW springs for rear. I think most power mods came off. But plans to put some back on. One of the first peeps i remember with EVO x wheels. but wanted to try somethin custom color no one else was using, PLus makes car stand out.

Um... no. That's smaller than stock. I mean, unless those wheels have some really crazy offset or something...

Shouldn't have a problem in the world. You can run those all day long. Hell, you could lower your car a bunch, and they'd probably still be fine

I like the look and the tires are $30/ea cheaper than 18's and the wheels I want only come in a 17s.

I thought they would be close to rubbing due to the 225s and the 42 offset when I go with springs. I know they will be pretty flush. I have FD wheels (16x8 et50) on now.

I'm runnning 255/55s on a 16x8 rim in the front, and I only rub when I crank the steering wheel all the way. You should be 100% ok.

Edit: Here's how they sit...

I'm gonna say probably not. I'd watch your rear tires if you go with the 235s though.

I was running 18x8.5 245/45s in the back and I nearly destroyed my tires. I think you'll be fine though.

Definitely fine in the front.

Edit: Stock ride height?

You need to roll, especially when you have passengers... it's gonna rub for sure.

Fronts will be fine. I can 100% guarantee you that. Rears... They might rub, but I don't think they will

Fronts can only be pulled anyways.

They will rub, only when you corner hard and have passengers going over bumps on freeway. Even rubbed with 225/45. 225/50 & 235/45 are both taller.
