Rim Help.

[LEE490]

Hey guys sorry to open another wheel thread but i am looking at buying my new wheels tomorrow, I have read countless threads and am sure these will fit fine but just wanted to double check with you guys before hand. The new wheels are 18 x 8.5 and 9.5 inch +30 which i understand to be same as stock 18's just a tad wider. So was just hoping you guys with a higher knowledge then me could let me know if these will have a nice fitment that is going to be legal and all.

Thank you for any help you may give. Almost forgot to add....its a coupe =)

Going to be sunken

Hopefully they will clear your front brakes if you have brembo s

Atm I've got 9.5+8 with a 275 and it's still in the guard

yeah +30 is a bit weak, i learnt my lesson when i bought +25 offset wheels.. they sink in the guards pretty bad but i didn't want to run spacers for insurance purposes. I'd look for wheels with lower offsets or consider spacers.

Ok sweet guys ill keep my eye out for sumthing with a lower offset, thanks for the info.

[Seano350GT]

Usually more expensive wheels can come in a variety of offsets. I'm looking at a new set of wheels atm with +4 and +5 offsets but they're going to cost me around 3k..

[LEE490]

Yeah im looking at these - http://www.importmonster.com.au/shop/product_info.php?cPath=40_45&products_id=1322 have seen them with a +20 also so might get on and ask the guys if they can get em lower then that if not ill just keep my eyes peeled for something similar.

those are sick wheels at a good price. i personally wouldn't go 18's i just think they're a bit small. You'd need at least 20mm spacers on if you were going to run +30 offset to look half-decent

[LEE490]

Yeah been tossing up on if i should get 18's or 19's dont really wanna get 20's like i did on my last car tyres cost to much and I enjoy having a functional spine after a long drive. And yeah im the same as you gonna try steer clear of spacers so i cant have it used against me by my insurance.

[Seano350GT]

might be an idea just to save a bit more money, and spend it on a quality set of japenese wheels with the right offsets in a 19''. Tyres are still going to be expensive in a 19'' too.
