sc300 offset questions on 18's
I've been researching wheels for my sc300, but not sure on offsets I want. I want my wheels to be super flush, with no sunken in look. I'm actually wanting the wheels to sit out maybe a half inch to an inch, so I can use negative camber to fit them under the fenders. I don't mInd rolling my fenders either. here are the offets i have found..
18X8 5-114.3 30mm
18X9 5-114.3 15mm
18X9 5-114.3 38mm
i wouldn't mind going with 9's all the way around, as long as theyre flush. Heres a pic of my s14 with super flush wheels that needed negative camber to fit. I'm looking for something just like this.
Also, I didn't know what the offset on my wheels for the 240 were, since they didn't say and I bought them used off a 95 mustang GT. All I know is that they were 17X9.5 in the rear

30mm will give you what youre looking for.
15mm will stick out just too much.
38mm will fit perfectly inside the fenderwell.
Here's a pic of my car with 18x9 +22 offset.

I see your running only a 9", is that cuz you'll hit the shock and spring?

Im running a 9" rim on the rear because these rims were off my MR2. With a 255/35 tire, I did not have to shave anything. I will be upgrading to a 19x10 as soon as I settle some debts.
Here is some helpful info.
