Sorry to contribute yet another offset question post, but I'm interested in the Work Emotion XT-7 in 18" x 8.5" all around.



Available offsets are 5mm, 32mm, 38mm, 46mm. I'm guessing the 46mm offset would be the safest. Is there any guarantee that these will fit? There would be a couple mm less inner clearance and a 10mm extension, which doesn't sound like a big deal. I'm having flashbacks of the first set of winter tires my tire shop ordered not clearing the calipers.

Advice would be appreciated.

+46 will clear. guaranteed.

It's great!!

 

You'll probably be safe with 38mm also. What size tires?

 

46mm is safe, but I would do 38mm

 

thats some jdm **** right there....

 

I was thinking of going with 245/40/18.

 

I'll probably go with the bronze. I have the black/brown leather interior and I think broze would complement it nicely.

Can't decide whether I want to do the MS body kit first though...

 

I like those wheels...you also could safely go up to 255 tires on 8.5" wheels if you wanted. Heck, my friend's BoxsterS has 265 on 8.5" wheels from the factory.
