hey guys
looking at some new wheels
thinking about work Cr Kais

just want to know which ones would eb the best for width and offsets that would fit under the rolled guards and sit flush

FF means flat face
SC means semi concave face
DC means deep concave face

sizes im looking at are either
front:
18 x 7.5 offsets: FF +48 +42 +35
18 x 8.5 offsets: FF +43 +37 +30 SC: +38 +32 +25

rear
18 x 8.5 offsets: FF +43 +37 +30 SC: +38 +32 +25
18 x 9.5 offsets: DC +38 +30 +20 +12

was thinking 8.5's all round in a matt gunmetal colour

any opinions would be cool

Those sizes would be killer!

But will require stiff coilovers, rolling, and stretched rubber and still may scrub occasionally...

Agreed! And a bit of neg :D at least -2 degrees or more to tuck the tyres in.

If you can get the arches flared - I'd go as aggressive as possible with the offsets then mod the guards to suit :P like 18x8.5+25 & 18x9.5+20 (215-40R18 & 245-35R18)

*The latter sits out the same as a 18x10+33 here

While the Risky Devil - ILL300 Spanky mentioned wears F: 18x9+25 R: 18x10+25 (215-40R18 & 225-40R18)

*Oriphin asked a similar fitment Q here (18x9 +26 18x10 +26)


Have a mess around with this Wheel Offset Calculator Compare offsets you have seen fitted with what you want to try ;)
