Default 18x10.5 + 25 SSR Type F with 285s?

I've done a search, cannot find anyone running this setup. Anyone running this with a lowered car? Anyone track these?

Thanks,
Justin

May need a slight roll, great size when combined with a 265 or 275 front tire. You can also go up to a 295 rear with your offset.

Assuming you mean a square setup, the front will clear the knuckle. Fender clearance is questionable but maybe. I have a 285 up front now on a 10" +32 and it just barely fits. A 10" +35 will NOT clear the knuckle.

Yes, sorry, I do mean a square set-up. I'm ultimately trying to find a combo that gets me a square set-up with a lightweight (relatively) 18 inch wheel, 285 tires, and without spacers. I felt the +15 offset was just too much (to close to fenders), and I don't want to go too crazy on camber.

No spacers? You can try an Advan 18x9 +29. You may not be able to run a 285 on it, however. Members and moderators on here say they have seen in done but after weeks of searching for someone to do it, I gave in and bought a 18x10+35. If Advan is too pricey, try Enkei RPF1s... however you will need to run spacers to fit a 285 up front.

I think i would have gone with a 10 inch wheel if i was trying to run those tires up front.

INTIMAZY was that you trying to run a 305 on ADVAN RS 18x10 that I saw a little bit ago? How'd that work out?

Yep. That was me. I never got around to fitting the front since I had a 285 that would fit without question up front on that same 18x10 for now. The rear 18x10 with a 305 fits just fine without even rolling the fenders. This weekend I may throw the 305 up front just to see how much clearance I have.

I am currently away from home so I do not have current pics. I have an event this Sunday so I will take a few shots at the track.
Wheels are Advan RS 18x10 +35 all around.
The front wheel rubs the knuckle without a 3mm spacer. A 285/30/18 Kumho V710 is up front and clears inside with slightly more clearance than the wheel has. (Meaning, the wheel lip sticks out farther than the tire does.)
The rear is a 305/30/18 V710. Clears non-rolled stock fenders. I have a 5mm spacer on just because I can

Cool...looking forward to pics. Do you think if you had the +25s would clear the knuckle?

Thanks,
Justin

No problem. Our 19x10.5 +38s clear with a 305 tire, and we run the net offset to +28 with spacers.
