Here's mine. 18x11 square. 265/35 fronts 275/35 rear. Also, they sit very close to my oem non brembos, so I'd imagine they would NOT clear brembos without spacers. My guess around 15-20mm spacers would do it.
Did a quick chop to compare. Hate how rpf1s don't come in x11, picking up a pair of white 206s for the rear. Might be able to pull it off and not look too weird. I've had other wheels where the front and the rears were the same wheel but did not look the same due to disk shape and face design for brake clearance.

Been doin a lot of searching and found cosmis wheels. Does anybody know if the xt-005 wheels will fit nicely at:
Front: 18x9 +25
Rear: 18x10 +20
basically will they fit as it sits(no spacer, no rubbing etc) and what size tires would you recommend? Stock height at the moment
I think they fit but before I drop the money I'd like some others input thanks guys
18 x 9.5 +15
18 x 10.5 + 20
Gunmetal, no rub at all with offset. Perfect fit, will be on coilovers in spring so we'll see how they look. Bought BC Coils. Will probably do a review on them once the time comes.
Ok so being a complete noob on wheels and tires (forgive me lol) I just have a few questions if any body has any insight it would be much appreciated. Im pretty much sold on the XT-206r rims but I'm not quite sure about sizing. I would like a happy medium of performance and comfort. I've read through this thread a few times trying to answer my own questions but I just can't get it. I was thinking of the 18x9 for the front and the 18x9.5 for the rear or should I even go offset? I would prefer to stay away from fender rolling or spacers if possible solely because of my lack of knowledge on the two and the fact that there aren't any reputable shops around here that I trust. I have the oem non brembos but maybe in the future would like to upgrade to an aftermarket big brake kit. Any advice would be great thanks.
It'll handle better for sure. Tires for no stretch go like 265 or 275 front. Like 305 or 315 for rear. But watch sidewall size
Eventually I want to put coilovers on it maybe a slight drop but not too much would the 18's still support a taller tire with that going on? I just know I hate how my spec v rides with the low profile tires. I'm sure it could be more than that going on just kinda new to the whole suspension thing. Thanks again btw
I'm doing coils in the spring can't wait to drop mine. I have a slight stretch on my tires but the sidewall height is very important. Can mess up the car, learned that the hard way.
