Default for those of you using 18" wheels..

Im about to get some 18" wheels and run a 2/4 drop b/c the 20"s are too heavy. i was wondering how many people are running 18" wheels and if you are please post a pic so i can get some ideas. i really want some intro pentia 6's but they are kind of pricey. thanks

I run 18" nissan titan rims. Probably not what you're looking for but I spent $51 on the full set. I run 255/55/18's with a 4/7 and they're perfect.

Oh and FWIW each rim/tire weighs 64 lbs combined.
