I'm curious, would the 18x8.5 +42 fit the stock suspension in the front? If so you could run a staggered set up with the 18x9.5 in the rear without having to go RB! That would be a great option for guys like me who don't need ridiculously wide rims because we don't plan to push over 275 whp...

The issues up front for the 18x9.5 is the strut on the inside. Just need coils to make them work. Fender clearance is fine.

Oh ok, but do the 18x 8.5 +42 have the same issue? or is it just the 9.5?

Is there any clearance with stock suspensions or do I have to upgrade to coilovers? What if I get 8.5 front and 9.5 back width... will this cause issues with stock suspension?

Just purchased these wheels for my wife. She has TRD lowering springs. Do I need a camber kit and what's the MAX width tire I can run without hitting the perch?

Does anyone have these wheels with an STI Brembo brake swap, and if so, do they clear with no issues?

Front will need a spacer...

Ive had a set of 18x9.5 +43 sparkle silver n order for a month for my personal car! Super stoked for them to get here in the next two weeks!

Although mine will be going on my WRX these wheels look great on BRZ/FRS.

And agreed to everyone saying that 9.5 should have more concave! if only!

Just tested fitted with 5mm spacer with 245/40/18 v12 Evo tires up front. These work with stock suspension. It's close with the perch but does not hit. I may end up with 10mm in the rear to even it all out
