18" Wheel & Tire Discussion Thread
Lol oh nice! TTW's did my tires. Heard they're great guys so I have an appointment for Monday to do alignment. I might have to call them back and see if they'll put a different pipe on there!

Cool, so you're in Ft Worth now? You should definitely come join us at the meet we're having in about 2 weeks.
I've never been there, but TTW has a great reputation around the DFW.

Hi guys
I can't seem to find another thread with these options.
I'm looking at some weds tc105n and the two offset options
for the 18x9.5 are +10 and +35.
Running 275/35/18 all around what offset here would be a safer bet?
Thanks!

Can you expand on your answer?
I'm aware that offset is the distance between hub and center line of rim.
From my limited offset knowledge, +10 pushes the rim out quite a bit more. Wouldn't the ideal be to go +35 and use spacers to push the wheel out to flush (that is if it isn't already)?
Also, would I have any concern about BBK clearance with a +10? (Stoptech 14").
This is an Evo forum but they do have concerns about the +10 sticking out

Those are the Evo owners with panties on. +10 for sure, 9.5 +35 is sunk on both cars.
Camber is everything when playing with the perfect offset. 9.5 +10 will require added camber with a 275/35 to clear the outer fender under compression. Some street guys care about running this much camber, some do not, then track guys will run even more camber and can run even more aggressive wheels.
-are you talking about when lowered? I'm still on stock suspension.
I'm running +20's at the moment. I figured that +10 would just mean that I'd push out another 10mm, however the tires aren't close to the outer fender.
I'm not too concerned about stance - these wheels are for the track only.

So far so good!! No issues with VDC and 275/35 rear and 245/40 front Nitto NT05. Maybe as the rears wear down... but hopefully not for a few years. I put 4,000 miles on the car in the last 4 years
