i'm looking new black rims

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/18-Speedy-L8-4L-Black-Wheels-Tires-Ford-Focus_W0QQitemZ8043446590QQcategoryZ66484QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem#ebayphotohosting

i like these (and it seems like a pretty good deal for rims and tires for $900.  question is, they're 18x7"  with 215/35R18 tires.  i don't know jack about tires so....  will these rub?  i'm not lowered right now but planns are to put on the SVT susspension kit so it'll be down 3/4"

i'm not too concerned about the tires beeing some super duper racing jobbies, but i am going to keep my 15" steels for winter tires.

They will fit, and will not rub, a friend of mine has his Focus dropped on Sportlines and rolls on 18" with the same size tires and has no problems at all.

Ask the sell what kind of rubber there gonna wrap them in and than see if you like them. Don't want to spend money on tires you don't care for.

I think they look nice & I agree w/ Dan - find out what kind of sneakers you're getting, or do you get a choice?
