18x10 -3 possible with A LOT of work.

18x12 -3 I highly doubt it.

Oh dear lord, peer pressure!

Back to the drawing board on this one. There are a few different wheels out there I've always wanted to try out in gangster specs, lol.

Im planning on having it all at one time. The front and rear bumpers are just too big of a project at this time where I am currently living. Everything I build I build in a small hobby room in my basement. the fenders will be about the largest thing in the space being worked on... the mirrors were scrapped for a new design(I still have the old and it is finished), the new version is a sleek version of the McLaren MP4 12c mirrors.

This is a PS that's about a yr old now, but it shows a fender that measures roughly about 30mm wider on each side. Probably cant notice from this distance and angle. Recently I have fallen in love with the RWB porsches so Im thinking of going wider now. like 60mm plus on each side. We'll see if its justified with the new engine setup.

30 more mm's each side would be insane.

18x12's would be cake

WheelFlip is two things - Soon to be forum for buying, selling, and trading wheels & a wheel customization, refurbishing/refinishing, and all-out retail wheel shop, storefront and all

They've been lagging on the forum but when it is launched, it will be glorious. Should be live any day now!

Starting to like the 2's also. I have a set of 16x7.5 old school VOLK CV-Pros I was gonna put in a Fit(if I ever get one), but might save it for the mazda2. Wait, does it have 4x100?

Same wheels, but mine are 16s
