Anyone have the following setup on a Track Model? 18x9.5" at all 4 corners with a +30 offset. What's the brake clearance like? Thanks.

 

I talked to Tirerack and was told that these wheels in this size and offset won't clear the front Brembo's. Of course, he didn't tell me if another offset would work.

 

the 18x9.5 57S is available in a +22 offset. Why not run that instead. or if you opt for that offset, get some 10mm spacers.

ask our volk dealers, they will know.

 

The reason why I chose +30 is that I want to run the same size tires (265/40R-18) all around and want the ability to rotate them as well. If +22 will work on all four corners and clear the Brembo's then that works for me. But like you suggested I'll contact the Volk dealers here and ask them.

 

Ohh I see what you are doing now. The rears will surely fit, you may need to run a 5-10mm spacer up front.

You can take some measurements yourself and get somewhat an idea of where your wheel is going to sit.

Thanks much Mike. With a 100mm spacer up front the offset goes to +40 or +20?

 

I hope you are kidding, hhehehe.

 

Oops. I meant 10. I'll check out the offset calculator.

 

Spacers lower your offset.

So on this wheel being +30, a 10mm spacer would effectively bring your offset down to +20.
