If you can get the FS01's in 18x9 +25 that would look badass. And you said you were going to use 225's? Thats pretty stretched. Go for 245/40

 

Thanks for the input. Learning towards to the Forgestar F14 or FS01. I can only get +48 or +30 offset with 18x8.5 or +31 offset with 18x9 with the FS01. Forgestars, i can go as low as +25, i was thinkin +35 front +30 rear. i plan on using my stock 225's for now and will go wider once they wear out lol. Also running on stock suspension but gonna drop with some tein s techs or tanabe GF210s

 

If you are going for the +5mm difference front to rear, just get the same rim all around and use a spacer. Then you can rotate tires easier.

 

Thanks for the tip. So 18x8.5 +35 front/+30 rear or 18x9 +35 front/30 rear. Or i can go with the same offset all around, just trying find the best combo that can take my stock 225's right now but will allow me to go wider in the future. Excuse my ignorance, still trying get wheel fitment/offset lingo down.

 

18x9+30 all around works

 

appreciate the advice. definitely the look im goin for.

 

I had a quick question. I just ordered some enkei prk wheels. They are 18x8.5 with a 35mm off set. I am using the stock tires on my eight to put on them once they get here. The site I got them from contacted me and told me the fitting on the rear would be fine for those rims. However they suggested that I go with a 18x7.5 with a 38mm off set for the front because they cannot grantee that the 18x8.5 will fit the front. What should I do? should I get all four rims to be 18X8.5 35 or should I stagger with the front 18X7.5 38 and rear 18X8.5 35?

 

HAHAHA they don't know what the hell they are talking about. You can fit 18x10.5 +43 w/265s all around and no roll lol. 18x8.5 +35 will fit with tons of room to spare

 

cool thanks then i shall let them know to go a head and proceed

 

what about: 5zigen FN01R-C 19x9.5 (all around)
with: Toyo T1R Proxes265/35R18

 

^offset?

offset = life

yes...it's that important

 

btw; sparks: +1 w/J

that site is retarded. We can fit 19x10.5 if we wanted to.

 

my bad +45
helps if i pay more attention when asking questions

 

^you'll be good

 

thanks attila

 

lol noted. this is why I love our site

also side note I am an anime junkie as well love bleach check out my album on ACEN '09 (Anime Central its in Chicago) there is a pic of my friends Rx 7 Fc down up with a red suns theme

 

I currently have 18x8 +33 in the front and 18x9 +27 in the rear with a fender roll in the rear.

Will I be fine with the tanabe GF drop?

 

^Not at all, those springs lower it alot in the rear. If you are running a 245 or higher you'll rub alot.

 

Would I have any issues with 18x9.5 +45 all around and 245's? Perhaps 255's?

 

18x9 +30 w/ 255/35/18?

 

Please tell me your joking...You have 3000 post and you don't know this answer? One of the most popular wheels are the 18x9.5 +45 RPF1's and most people running those are on 265-275mm tires... No rubbing what so ever.

You'll rub depending on how much you are lowered. more so in the rear than the front.

 

You really think so? 9+27 is the same as 9.5 +33 and we both know people run 275s on that without rubbing after a roll. I'm lowered as much as those springs with 9.5+33 and I think I have enough room for 265-275ish tires. I've been wrong before though.

Tell what size tires are on the car and we can help a little more.

 

Like Topgear8 said, it will rub in the rear without a roll. 245/40/18 works great though.

 

19x9.5 with 18" tires? No go on that one lol. I'm sure that was a typo.

 

I'm on 18x9 +35, it rubbed with 275's and with 265's on the plastic, not the fender. Rolled fenders will not solve the problem of rubbing on the plastic, He might have to shave the plastic a bit.
