Re: 18" rims fitting on '99 eclipse
Yes, they will fit nicely. I have a buddy with some 18's with a 40 profile tire and it looks badass.

Re: 18" rims fitting on '99 eclipse
Yes, all 2g's have the exact same body stamp so if it fits nicely on a 99, it will look the same on a 98, 97, 96, and 95. If you get 40 profile tires and lower it about 1-1.5 inches you will be sitting very nicely.

Re: 18" rims fitting on '99 eclipse
My car looks really good with the 18's on it and lowered about 1.5 inches.
Ashley what color is your car? Those are some good looking wheels.

Re: 18" rims fitting on '99 eclipse
JScharF thanks. Once again don't know yet how to do pics but soon as i do i'll put a pic of my car. It's red, tinted window(slighty, want more) and black leather interior. i'm going for this black and red thing( if you didn't notice) i got red lights inside and am thinkin about black out tail lights( opinions anybody?). I tried them (the rims) on once but heard a popping noise and this is my baby so i decided to be safe, but i'm gonna try again tomorrow. To the question as where i got them...they were a gift( very nice gift! lol).they are nice, great condition too.

Re: 18" rims fitting on '99 eclipse
Yes on the blacked out taillights, I think they look extremely sexy. And for the popping noises, I'd get your suspension checked out before you put those wheels on just in case something is loose/broken.

Re: 18" rims fitting on '99 eclipse
I personally wouldnt black out the taillights on a red car...I dont think it looks very good...

Re: 18" rims fitting on '99 eclipse
Well i guess the real question now before i do this is there enough back spacing for the rims?
