they shouldnt rub unless u get a massive tire in there, and with a decent size tire they would only rub on sharp turns. i have never heard of such a thing about needing better brakes, sure its more weight to stop but its still gonna stop, put 18s on my bros maro and he has no problem stopping with stock brakes.

id ask around more first about the brakes thing if you ever do get 18's but i just cant see why you would need better brakes.

Eventually..you'd need new brakes. But for a while you'd be fine IMO. It'd probably just wear your stock brakes faster if nothing else.

are those gunmetal? ive never seen cobra R's in any other than polished, silver, and chrome. thats crazy. pretty cool, but i dunno about 18's... bigger the diameter, the more expensive the tires are. itll catch up to ya in the long run. |

Anyone know where you can get them other than eBay. |
