Help!! Will these wheels fit?

Was messing around and found these for sale. I really like them but am not too sure if they will fit. I have a 2003.5 sedan and am about to put the pro-kit on soon. If someone could tell me if these will fit or not and if so what, if any modifications, will need to be made to make them fit? Thanks, Matt

Fronts should be OK, fairly flush with the wheel arch, but the rears I'd be concerned about. They look like they'll be outside the wheel arch. I have 18x8 +30 in the back with a 245 tire, and it's pretty close to flush. This setup would be 1.25" farther out, so if you're dropping, I'd plan on rolling your fenders and some negative camber or it's likely that you'll rub. I'm no expert by any means, just doing the math in my head.

And try searching. There are lots of wheel fitment threads.

You're gonna rub heavy in the rear with that low of an offset on a 10.5.

You'd be better off buying 4 front wheels and a 3/5mm spacer for the rear.

Expect to roll your rear fenders with the spacer though.

Don't need to spacer, but that what I would do.

Rears wont fit Unless U run 3-4 camber with 235-245 tires stretched... Not even worth it...


rolling the fenders flat wouldnt cut it... Ud need to slam ur car to the floor, and Prokit does not... Maybe H&Rs

No, if you're going to the ground you do it on bags or coils.

10.5 won't fit unless it's got about a +45-50 offset.

slam with natural camber and strech tires is fine with fenders rolled flat. 10.5 + 30 is comparable to 10 +24 which im running and my rear is just rolled flat and im even running 245/35 you can probably stretch a 225 on a 10.5
