Default Work SC1 Wheel Fitment

Hey, I don't know if this has been covered.. if it has I apologize, but I currently have 17" OEM rims on my 2IS and I wanted to jump to 18" Work SC1's with the Black Polish. What kind offsets would I need, and this is also considering me getting h&r springs (1.4f and 1.3r drop i believe). If I wanted the flush look, should I also get spacers? Please help a newbie -_-

go 19's...18's will be too small. Your going to hear this a lot, you can't be flushed without being slam so your going to need coils. So coils and 19x9 19x10-10.5 with offsets in the 30's and roll or shave your fenders..it'll look really nice or if your local and in the bay, you can come out to our mini-meets to check out some of our local members wheel fitments

Yea I don't know why I was looking into 18's, I think it was cause I've been hearing that with 19's you lose some performance or some **** like that, but eh. If 19's look better then I'm all for them. Do you guys have any idea how much they're going to run with me? With tires included
And yayitscola, yea i'll definitely sign up for it and see if I can make it out although my car's going to look like **** compared to everyone else's -_-

don't worry about it, we don't judge people by their ride...we actually got a few members that still haven't gotten wheels yet or done serious mods. BTW my name is Colan and it'll cost you somewhere around 3500 with good tires...or maybe a bit less or more so yeah haha

Hey steezy..you from Ewa Beach??...I went to Campbell H for a few years. And surfed a lot at bottoms and Hau bush
sorry for hijack....go with 19' min for a flush look. But in your budget 18's are still great but will have more of a wheel gap then you might like. Make it out to our meets and you can see in person...
