+1 to new wheels. don't waste your time with spacers. i was going to do spacers on mine but decided to just run on what i got now and get new ones later on with more aggressive stance.

[fillit]

oh cmon guys, don't hate on spacers :P

jeff look for rims on yahoo auctions, heaps of nice stuff around at bargain prices :)

[jeffy]

nahh i dont hate spacers.. its just ceeebs with spacers ~!

thinking of swapping with my mate temporarily,

hes got 18" osaka RS5s 18x8s unknown offset, to see what it'll look like with 18s,

....Till then, the search continues for "that perfect fitment"

[fillit]

be brave jeff, 18x10 + 25 negative 3 camber all round, slammed on it's ***** :D

[itsmehuey]

not hatin' on spacers, but just thinking in the long term.. is it really worth it? plus i'd still be weary about how safe spacers really are.

but when it comes down to it, fitment wise, if you're going to do it, do it right? I learnt the hard way and bought rims without fully researching specs etc.

i've ran 5mm slip on for years now, and never had an issue, atm i run 22mm hubcentric spacers no problems..

unfortunately my car is 4x100 and low offset wheels are extremely hard to find (least the stuff that i like) i searched night and day on yahoo auctions to find my current rims which are 16x7 +35 (lowest offset they come in), yet they are still quite sunk... even with 22mm spacers they are only "just" flush..

in my scenario, low offset wheels are really limited to VIP style or 6UL/AXIS OS/BBS stuff which i'm not too much of a fan of..

with that being said i have friends who have ridiculously low offset rims and still run spacers on it :D

Stop giving rubbish advice and filling peoples threads up with crap about illegal spacers. WE GET YOUR POINT!!!

On an ON TOPIC note, Jeffy those wheels look alright, something of that style in 18's would look good in black. I like your thinking of getting the correct offset wheels.

If you want to go flush without spacers, you are going to have to stagger your offset or buy staggered rim widths or both.

I can say with confidence that if you get a 18x8" rim:

Front - +35 (you may get a tiny bit of poke)

Rear - +30 (you may fall a fraction short of flush), +25 will probably give you some poke

I run 18x8, +40 front and rear and I almost get flush with my fronts and the rear is still tucked away. However, if you run a F35/R30 combo and use superlow or coilovers you will need your rear guards rolled (definite) and you may need your fronts rolled as well.

You could buy a pair of 18x8.5 +40 and a pair of 18x9 +40 and you'd probably be more flush than a game of poker. However, I suspect (especially for the rear) you'd have strut/suspension fouling issues.

As much as I would love the flushness different offsets provide, it would make tyre rotation a biatch (unless you can afford to get them to take them off every time you rotate). There is one possible way to make things flush legally with same rim widths but I need to check some measurements and stuff first.

edit: If I were you, buy a set of 18x8" +35 and live with the fact your rears aren't flush.

[jeffy]

thanks for that info andrew, been lookin at loads of 18's lately, but soo far the ones i want are all dished with +22 offsets,

Looking for concave rather than dish? Plenty on yahoo jap auctions.

We can test fit my wheels on your car to give you a rough idea how much less (or if your brave) more poke you will get and how much camber it will have

[private number]

Jeffy you are gonna love me

One of my boys ride in the USA

Rear specs are 19x9.5 +20 rear 225/35 3.5 lip

If i were you id go 18x9.5 +25 (thus have 5mm less poke) Run 225/45 tyres

intereseted .... :D ^_^ B) ;) :P :)

but i cant afford your 6 Grand rims LOL xD ~!

[Cee-Lo]

The gold rims could have worked ok if you slammed the car on coilovers, but if you're going for fitment, may as well offload them for something else.

[private number]

haha they arent te37s bro. Just rotas

And were just using em for the specs and comparision ;) unless you wanna buy em ;)

[Andrew357]

Stretched tyres?

Yuk.

[jeffy]
