it wont look bad. It actually sticks out 1 inch more then the stock 18's. People normally add a 25mm/1" spacer to the stock wheels and they come out looking fine.

Sure, its not a super aggressive offset but not everyone wants to go flush and roll their fenders.

i know im bringing this topic back from the dead...but for anyone who stumbles on it

buddy club will not bring their good offset wheels to this country simply cause they cant get them sold...buddy club is one of my 2008 sponsors and ive TRIED to get a full set of QFs for my s13 in a good offset (17x9 +12 all around as track wheels)...and they just will not bring them here unless they can move 40 units (meaning 40 wheels)

People know sh*t about offsets on this message board.

I run a 18X10 +35 in the rear. That's because I run a 305/35/18 tire. If you want to run a wide tire that's a perfect offset. If you want to run stretched tires that don't fit and join that club then the offset isn't great.

Jet, good news, yesterday I got my tires and rims on.

Stock suspension with 1.2" Eibach Drop Springs.
Cut the fenders.
305/35/18 +15 offset no problem with the R888
265/35/18 +15 offset no problem with the R888
2 people in the car, plenty of bumps no rubbing.

I'm really glad it worked out for you.... Show me where I said that size wouldn't work. In fact here is every post I made in your thread asking about tire size.

That's an extremely aggressive rear offset to run a wide tire. Your definetly going to have to roll the quarter panel lip as flat as you can get it. Your going to need alot of camber.

They only make a 295/30/18. And that won't fit. It's too small a diameter. Your going to have to try and fit the 305/35/18. It's going to be very very tight.

JET

I have a 18X9 +22 on the front and neg 1.4 camber and the 275/35/18's rubbed. I had ADVAN Sport tires on previously in the same size and they fit fine. These R888's are a wider than most tires. Remember 275 is the tread surface width. Not the overall width.

Your running a wider front rim and a smaller offset and your camber is not adjustable. The 1" drop isn't much, but you will have more suspension travel than me. I am on very stiff coilovers. I would suggest the 265/35/18 on the front.

JET

My car is pretty low... this is the 295/30/19 and a 255/35/18 18X9 +22/19X10 +25. The 295/s rub with less than -1.6 camber, but I use the car mostly on the track so I can definetly use the camber. These tires are very wide overall for their treadwidth. You can't use really aggressive offsets with these tires.

JET

Wow... that a huge stagger 255/305. And the rear wheel is 1.38 inches larger than the front diameter.

275/305 is what you want.

JET
I also posted a picture of my car dropped 3" and said I was speaking of my experiences. Asa matter of fact I even posted that the 275/305 is what you want. In case you missed it I put it in huge bold blue highlight above.

This is the pic I postedi nthat thread about how low my car was. See pic....



Don't ask people to waste their own personal fukin time to answer questions from people like you who know nothing and then come back and shove it in my face when I told you what MY EXPERIENCES had been. That's being an @ss.

And that is why many shops sell people the wrong stagger tire right, usually a set a equal height tires. How about the shop that told Nforce1 his 285/35-19 would rub with +35 on a 9.5. Most shops don't have a clue from car to car , that shops that deal with our cars have learned the same way the rest of us have. Experiance, personal experiance.

Given the money these shops charge you would think they are experts.

Sounds like you need a better shop with better experts who work on a higher volume of cars. Good luck.
