I'm afraid the rear will be sunken in - not that I'm looking for massive amounts of camber, either. I know xdjdubx was running two spacers in the rear for a total of 50 mm with his 10.5, but that seems a bit unsafe.

Thoughts?

If the rear wheels are rebuildable, you may be able to flip the faces and polish / powdercoat the barrels (now the lips) for 18x10.5 -26ish

My mistake, I thought you were talking about the Superstar Odens.

The Maverick 605S do not go that low in offset, unless you went with 20s.

Well the reason why I'm running a spacer was because I need a converting spacer for the 5x114.3. So might as well go with specs that are easier to resell if ever I change my mind, right?

ah okay, forgot about the 5x100 to 5x114.3 part. I wish the front hubs for it were easier to come by.

wide, crazy low offset custom assembled 3-piece wheels usually hold their value pretty well. If you get used SSR, rays, work, etc wheels and flip the barrels and lips and reseal them to get super negative offset in the rear someone would probably want to buy them if you put them up for sale, but it might take machining to do that depending on what type of 3-piece wheels you get.

I am currently running 18x10.5 all round and have Yokohama AD08R - 255/35/18 front and 265/35/18 rears.

I feel that the rears need a little more as well as the front. Was thinking of 275 front and 285 rears, has anyone done this? Iv tried 265 on the front and they are fine but need a little more.

F335/R345 would be perfect for LSx swaps under these fenders

I guess 275/35/18 front and 285/35/18 rears has not been tested yet?

They have..under stock fenders

No point getting a rocket bunny kit if you're jus gonna get measly 275s...unless you're a show car, "stance" and/or ricer :p

How about for guys/gals that want to run no spacers. Kinda want a whole wheel fitment than adding spacers. Any fitment recommendations. I have the stoptech trophy bbk 355 rotors in the front. And stock size in the rear. I'm looking at 18x9.5 in the front and 18x10.5 in the rear. I'm lowered about 1 1/2 inches. Though I have no clue how much offset I need to get in order to clear my bbk also looking for that flush fitment, though no stretch fitment on tires. Function over form. I am thinking of getting a set of CCW D11Ls though they are 2 piece. Any helpful answers on wheel size recommendations and tires fitment will help. Thanks in advance.

Thinking of doing a 18x10 plus 20 front and 18x12 plus 20 rear, will this fit? What issues might I have running that wide a wheel in the rear?

For anyone with a RB or wide body kit, what are you doing for rear camber adjustment? Are LCA needed any rear upper arm camber needed? I'm planning a aggressive functional fitment.

Like any other car that is lowered it's always recommended to have LCAs. I have cusco LCAs on my car, but if you want the best bang for your buck I would do Powered by MAX LCAs. They make nice Coilovers as well

That's because your car is not near being low, I'm on an RB kit that is low and I can't fit anything more than a 225/40 on a 9.5" in the front (I'm still rubbing on those), I'm running 255/35 on an 11" in the back and I am also rubbing, I suggest you don't change tires and just lower accordingly.

i'm thinking about running 17's on my rb kit and i was wondering what offsets you guys think would work. i was thinking about some ssr wheels in 17x9 -9 offset up front and 17x11 -19 offset in the back. would these poke?
