They are 18x10 18x11 +13 all around, which is pretty close to the lowest offset i've seen them run in japan w/ those sizes, i think the lowest i've seen is an 11" wide rim w/ a 10 offset but he had to make his fenders all retarded <the little dent from pulling to much>.
RIght now on the 11 there is a 255/35/18 stretched slightly, i'm gonna try to drop a 235/40/18 or something like that on the 11 and a 225/40/18 on the 10 and hopefully that wil allow me to clear stock fenders in the front and rear w/ massive rolling and no bondo.
Most avg. size/offset that i've seen people are running out there are like 18x10, 18x11 +18, i'm hoping to be able to sport these wheels w/o having that dent from pully cuz they' be for daily and getting another set of wheels for BLiNG...
Man Ishould stop spending money on wheels and just get the car huH?

wow, that is just insane!! Where in CA are you? I have my fronts rolled completely and the rears trimmed, if you wanna meet up we can test fit and see how it'll fit before you go buying more tires...

I'm thinking of new wheels myself so seeing these on the car would be great help!

The front will fit really really good, with small camber adjustment.

Rear will defiantly need a pull, but, as long as you take your time and go slow, i think it'll turn out nicely.

That sunken look is cool for some people, but i like to know that my rims are on the verge of not fitting <hence the planned stupid stretch>

lol it's not that cool i promise, there only maybe 5 secs of it at night...

anyways, I didn't read you were going to run a pretty small tire, if that's the case, you should be able to get away with just a slight pull or possibly none at all.

for the fronts i'm plannin on running a 225/40, and the rears a 235 or 245/40, hopefully i can do just a slight pull w/ no camber, but lets be realistic... that doesn't look cool -=)
man i've been lookin around shopping for tires and daymm 18's are expensive...ahhh the price of looking good...dayam.

Yea, I'm not really sure I understand peoples obsession on this forum of wide tires. I mean, 95% of the people on here would be lucky to put down 200whp, I'm just not understanding why 200whp needs a 275 tire? I mean a 225 would be PLENTY. ha
