19x8.5 +30 all around.
Is it possible? Any recommendations on tires and guard modifications will be greatly appreciated.


Also might be a good idea to adjust original #1 post in this thread to include sizes that have been asked before.
I think it would save a lot of re asked questions.

245s for the bbs would male it work.

15mm spacers is more what I'd recommend for stock height and stock wheels.

Last guy post your suspension info.

Put on the 25mm all round yesterday. it looks sweet !!!!

I might drop the car on springs while i get my coilovers next year but over all im very satisfied with the looks.

But im just scared shitless i didnt tighten the spacer to the hub enough lol. I dont have a torque wrench with the pound/feet readings. I just used a deep socket with my torque gun and pulsed it till the lug nut wouldnt turn anymore.

I found some cheap enkei RP03, but he's not sure of the offset. He said possible +20 because they sit flush on a supra. Enkei's website states that the 18x19.5 are only made with a +38 offset.
So:
18x9.5 +20 (possible +38)
245/45 (whats on them now, but can change if needed)
Front & Rear

Dropped on Tanabes GF210 with stock struts.

Tires are too tall for the front and you need to know the wheel specs for sure.

Those spacers don't need to be too tight. I think it was a pretty low torque spec for my project kics spacers.

If the wheels were a +30 offset what would be a good choice for tires without doing any modification of fender rolling?
thanks for the help!

Rp03 will work fine. Fender roll possibly needed. Depends on camber

245/35 should be fine.

Spyros that will fit but the wheels will probably be outside the fender.

I'm eyeing up a set of XXR 527's in 18x9.75 +20

How much of a headache do you think this will be with BC Racing coilovers?

Yeah there is no way i'm stretching tires. Damn, XXR needs to make that wheel in something other than +20!

They have an 18x8.75 in +20 and +35.

Would the +20 fit with say 265 section tires?

I'm looking at the wheels here: http://www.nlmotoring.com/XXR-527-Wheels-s/1649.htm

Chromium Black is what i'm looking for for my Titanium Gray 8.


However, they do have the "522" in 18x9.5 +38. Those should fit with 275 section, no?
