18x9 18x9.5 +45 +48... Would that work? I'm not sure if you can fit a 9 inch wide in the front.

white_is · 10-13-2008, 03:15 PM

the front would stick out 4.3mm...
the rears will also stick out 4.65mm...

i would think you can make it work... but i just do the math

i run a weak ass 8" +45 all around lol

^^ Thanks, I'd like to hear ill's opinions on this too.

mookie · 10-13-2008, 04:28 PM

eh i run a 8.5 +30 in the front so that 9 should fit just fine

The highest offset you can run on an 18x9 is roughly +38... I had 18x9 +42 and it needed to be spaced about 3mm to clear the arm.

Alright, thanks! I was looking at these. I was going to refinish them.

Car is sold but I figured I'd join the fun. The fitment isn't aggressive at all but it's SLAMMED.

that thing is hammered! looks badass!

It looks like the car is eating the front wheels... Rear looks great though.

I still have them. They're not good for anything anymore since the spokes are cracked. I was thinking about making a table out of them

I didn't. I drove it from the lift (where I dropped it) to the parking lot for a meet, then back to the lift. I couldn't even get it back onto the lift after without a lot of massaging.

Cheater...

The hella flush/aggressive wheel trend has come a long way since Solo and I pioneered the trend for the IS300. Glad to see that it's finally catching on.
