Bit over the top for me, but hey, each to his own.
You can easily fit 235's on these and even 245's. The aspect ratio will need to be 40.

I can fit 235's on 7" width so you could easily get 245 or 255's I'd say.

I don't really like the wheels but I'm sure they'll look OK on the car.

Unique wheel but too small in 18x8 needs to be at least 19x8.5 with rear 9.5 or 10" with 245/275 tyre combo otherwise will look crup. Remember Soarer has wide ass end fill it up! And save up!

Ugly again, it really depends your taste. Just go with what you like. As long as you're happy with them that's all that counts. Best to try and photoshop them onto your car to see if it suits.

I agree with Ross - to me they are ugly but if you like em. Personally I don't think Soarers suit chrome, or very large wheels - better with slightly smaller wheels and fatter tyres. Boxier cars suit larger wheels and lower profiles, and I'm not sure what makes chrome wheels work on some cars - some large, dark coloured low 4 doors look OK with chromes, - anyhoo its all in the eye of the beholder.
