Coupe 18 wheels

So I help a friend of mine with a intake today with his coupe. After all said and done, I wanted to put his coupe wheels on my car. He is running a 225/45/18 on the wheel.

So I proceeded to put it on the front. Keep in mind I have a 10mm spacer on there still. Here is the final results of it. It FITS. a +20 offset. LOL





It was more aggressive than the other set up I have seen. Maybe because of the 225 but I think I could easy get a 235 or even a 245 <-- but with a 40 series. I know the wheel is a mess but what do you guys think. I talked to a couple of Z guys and they yawn when I told them. But this is a good thing. More wheel selection for us.

you could put a 20mm spacer on and it would still fit!

That looks just about right IMO. Did you drive around on it at all? If so did they rub on bumps when turning or anything?

I just put my coupe 18s on since I sold my 20s,

going to take some pics for you guys as soon as I get new tires cause the 225 in the front is just to small and it looks funny.

It looks good tho, offset is perfect.
