I do plan on doing some autoxing.
Advan has terrible sizes/offsets? Didn't know 18x9.5 +40 was considered terrible. In my opinion it's one of the best sizes/offsets for this car.
Matter of preference I suppose regarding +40 being the best offset. One or two wheels across the whole lineup with that offset isn't the greatest of selection choice is what I meant.

Man, that poll is 50/50 Lol! I think I'm going with the advans just because I can't get over the fact that I won't be able to use a bbk unless I add a 20mm spacer. Was also contemplating either Work emotion kiwamis or rays 57extreme but those are def a little played out with the twins. So back to the tciii's!

There's bbk's that can clear, however the brembo caliper needs that extra 20mm. AP Racing has their bbk that clears

Would you need to run spacers on these wheels?

TCIII is much lighter over the XD9 and ADVAN has a better offset and clearance for calipers, I willl prefer concave face over lip

Here's a pic that I stole from my friend's site :



He has AP Racing brakes and still has lots of room !

With running full tread to fit the wheel like 255/265, you will need coil-overs with camber plates and camber kit to make it to work.

That looks good! Yeah I'm currently running the same size/offset wheels on 265 rubber, so I know it will fit just fine with my set up. Thanks!
