What spacers do I need to Run OEM 18" Sedan wheels on coupe

What spacers do I need to Run OEM 18" Sedan wheels on coupe and keep the same offset as on my oem 19" rays ? I have a very hard time finding a set of 18" for a coupe in decent condition and there is plenty of sedan wheels out there . Thanks in advance

Do you mean offset?... Offside's is football and soccer. Well most OEM rims run about a +30 or +32 offset so you don't need to change it and usually it's +30mm in the front and +32 in the rear. This being because the rear rim is .5" wider than the front.

What lol
Just because a wheel is bigger doesn't mean the offset has to change or will change

And yes I don't think it needed to be corrected that the op wasn't talking about offsides in football in regards to his wheels

Op you mentioned a rough ride with your 19s here in jersey. Have you tried for a larger sidewall?

Just clarifying... if I didn't do it someone else probably would have. I saved you the time on posting that early and not having to do it later.

I haven't tried larger sidewall because i dont think that will be enough, i dont want to get new tires just to be disappointed . I plan on getting brand new tires on the 18 with a larger sidewall. what are you running ?
