See the pic below, am I not right in assuming that the bead should not stick out further then the tread of the tire? I have never liked the way it looks when it goes inward from rim to tread. Granted this pic isn't nearly as bad as some of the others I have seen where the tire is obvioulsy 3-4 inches to narrow for the wheel. I am getting some M5 reps, what size tire should I get if I want it to look natural like the a stock set up. The tires that have been suggested in a "package" are 225/40/18 front and 255/35/18 rear which are the stock 330 ZSP tires. The fronts seem to make sense as the stock ZSP 162's come with that size tire and they are also 18X8 but the rear stays with the same tire even though the rim is .5" wider. Tell me if I am making a big deal over nothing but I its just got me worried a little that I can't see them before I buy them.

Thanks,

Jesse
