What do you guys think?!

Found them on Tirerack.com

Gram Lights 57 Optimise
Size: 18x7.5, +43mm Offset

They suggest a 225/40-18 tire. I plan on lowering on some prokits, I didnt see this exact setup on the sticky above for wheel setups that work. Do you guys think I would have issues with rubbing?!

not trying to thread jack, but i like these wheels and i googled them. i found out they do come in white (which i am looking for), and I found 17X7.5 for $419. Now is that for a set or only 1 wheel. I m guessing 1 wheel since gram lights are good wheels, but i want to make sure.

$419 is too pricey. You can get 17s at tirerack.com for $320 and $352 for the 18s. And too answer the TPMS question, I believe all GLs are TPMS compatible. I have the 57maximum and I am using TPMS.
