You shouldnt need spacers with 18s. Do you have sport brakes?

My blizzaks just arrived today. Blizzak LM 60's. Got the cheapest wheels on tire rack that fit the sport package. I'd post pictures but I don't have access to a computer until Sunday. Can't wait for the snow!

No sports brakes, just the base model here. Will roll with your guys input, appreciate the help. Don't plan on driving it all the time in the winter, just when I'm in a pinch (car pooling, and my friend drives winter), but read about the horrific handling with performance tires, so may need to drive a week or two throughout the winter (blizzaks will probably dry-rot before I need to replace them).

Thanks again, I'll post up results later this winter.

If no spacers with 18s, won't the front track seem awfully wide compared to the rear track (assuming all 4 wheels have the same offset)?
