kinda surprised no one has tried to run 0 offsets on their 8 yet.

everybody is still messin' around with teenage offsets.

10.5w +18 works w/265's..

why not 10w +0 w/255's?


food for thought

the math isn't exact but i'm just wondering what's stopping people from trying it?

i mean to say, what's stopping people from dropping some inches on width n' going lower in offset?

ud have to do some serious fender work to get +0 to fit with 255's.

with 225's it wouldn't be too hard with max camber i reckon

Oh, and I would say 10.5 ET0 is possible with 245/40/18's + camber arms or possibly 235/40/18 on stock camber adjustment.

I almost went with a -14 offset a couple of weeks ago on a 9.5 & 10.5

It came off my friends G35 and was going to be temporary wheels until I got in my new custom spec Meisters.

They were some really aggressive Meisters that was going to be on the 8 for about 3 months until the new wheels arrived.

But I decided that I didn't want to do any more work haha. The idea was very entertaining though and I went with the Volks instead.

^ it sure will but people like tilt have made 18x10.5 with really low offsets look FLUSH. So it is possible but personally i think the only person that would be able to pull it off is Tilt.
