this is probably a question for lance or bradley. Do you think I can use a 18 x 10.5 on the front with a +30 offset. I'm wondering if I would have clearance issues on the inside fitment.

I've search around real quickly, for some other higher offset wide wheels that people are running. I've seen a few 9.5 +30 and I remember a guy running FN's in 17x10 +25 all around. Compared to these the 10.5 +30 will be about 10mm closer to the suspension than the 10 +25. I'm pretty sure they will clear no problem. If worse comes to worse, you may need a very small spacer, 5mm or so but I doubt it.

Thanks Lance. I'm trying to do my research on it as well. I need a offset calculator to help me visualize whats happening. I'm thinking about doing the 10.5 +30 instead of doing the 10.5 +15. I'll do some more research and see what I come up with.

I read this in the 10.5 all around thread. Maybe the 10.5 +30 won't work on the front.
