I am looking into getting these rims ASAP, and I wanted your guys opinion. Please check them out and let me know what you think. Also, if anyone knows, please clarify if these rims will be clear of rubbing my suspension.

these wheels going on a truck or your car? if its your car, what kind do you have, and have you modified the suspension at all.

I know 18s look a LITTLE big on preludes, so if this is a civic or teggy, im really not sure you want to go the 18 route.

(on a side note, a friend of mine has those wheels on his S10, and they are HAWT!!)

I put 18" motegi wanna-be rims on a crx once. Looked like an old-west wagon.

I know what you mean ... the only thing is that it comes stock with 16" rims and 1 inch step up would not be much of a noticeable difference.

There's no way to tell if that setup will rub without offset information or wheel well information, especially since you have a Cobalt.
