Volk Racing Rims

[SLY33]

Im looking at some Volk ce28n's in 18 x 10.5 for 33gtr

I went through the whole wheel size ond offsets thread but found no one running that size.

Available offsets are +18, 35, 45.

Id just like to confirm that its the +18 offset i want? Anyone link me any pics of that setup?

lastly, are there any negative points to using 10.5s as oposed to the more commonly used 9.5 inch wide version?

thanks for any help

+18 is what you want.

what do you mean - negatives in terms of running 10.5 instead of 9.5? obviously your tyres are going to have to fit whatever rim width you get, wider costing more money. but the whole setup will depend on what offset/spacers you run to make the rims fit properly

thanks for the responses,

by negatives i mean things like, will they rub, does the 10.5inch wide rim cause any undesirable driving characteristics such as affecting suspension geometry etc.. i realise it will depend on tyre size also. I consider having to run spacers negative too, but at this width with correct offset it wouldnt be necessary. Just wanted to know if there was a reason why i couldnt find anyone running the 10.5's, with the 9.5s being quite common.

Basically i wanted to confirm that the correct offset of +18 would fit snugly and not require any extreme guard modifications.

cheers

BTW nice avatar onedollar, who is that?
