can anyone tell me if 18X10.5+12 all around will fit? I'd like to run 275 in the front and 295 in the rear and I'm dropped ~1inch on g35 tein stechs. I figured I didn't need to start a new thread for this question
With +12 on 10.5 all around??? That'd be a tough one without any fender pulls or mods. And prepare to put some negative cambers on.
I have Pirelli 275s (same as 285s for most other tires because of their side wall design) in the back on 10.5s with +35 and was very slightly rubbing with -2.0 degrees of camber. Now I have -2.5 and not rubbing at all. IMO, I could have probably gotten away with -2.2. Also, I have 255s on my 9.5 with +37 offset in the front with rubbing at full steering lock at -2.0 degrees of camber. I'm planning on slight fender mods in the future to correct this as well.
I'd say go for it after some fender pulls or slight cut from a professional body shop.

sorry I didn't mention i have rolled fenders in the rear but no pulls or cuts. Do offsets differ from 18s to 20s? I don't really want to run negative camber if I don't have to. Are you a sedan? I'm a coupe

I saw these online and they are pretty sweet looking concave wheels with low offsets and relatively cheap. Wondering if anyone has a set or if our vendors would sell them at a lower price than this site?

and here's the SA-67R

similar results to forged but made differently.
Weds is one the best know wheels companies in Japan. Made by Enkei using their "ADVANCED METAL FORMING" technique. You achieve strong lightweight wheels without the high price!

^ yea thanks I think I'm going to choose enkei RPF1 in 18X10.5+15 instead of these b/c of the huge price difference. Anyone heard bad things about the enkeis? I assume they use the same process and should be of similar quality, but the enkeis are 1200-1400 rather than 2100-2400
