Won't fit unless you run 5+ camber and stretched tires, I would suggest 215/40, 225/40 might fit..

Read tire specs and compare them to 225/40-18 which fit. Or 215/45-17 the stock size. Diameter is what you should be looking at. They will be slightly tall. But they will fit otherwise.

18x9+30 will fit like 18x9.5 +36 on the outside width. Yes they will fit but it will be tight. On big bumps 255s will rub on the rear bumper tabs on the rear or the side marker area on the front. 245's should be pretty good, maybe minor rubbing depending on camber and compression. Go outside with a measuring tape and imagine the wheels 1.75 inches further out than the stock wheels. They will also poke outside the fenders about .5-1inch or so. |

Okay looks like I'll run 245 square on 18x9 +30, just to clear somethings up when you say it'll poke .5-1 inch outside fenders is that for the rear also or just the front? Do you think the camber from the lowering springs will give enough camber for front or should I get some crash/camber bolts for the front Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Rear is about 5mm wider so it would poke less. BUT, front camber is easily added with camber bolts vs more expensive rear lca. BUT rear gains more camber than the front as it is lowered. They will poke though. The 1.75" wider than stocks, mentioned in the previous reply is a good starting point to figure out if it will poke too much for your taste. I would recommend camber bolts as that will allow you to have matching camber on both sides when you get an alignment. More camber up front is good for more front grip and it will lessen the appearance of poke. Check other brands for similar wheels with different sizing... enkei raijin(good brand), miro 111/112, and xxr 530. xxr 530 come in 18x8.75 +33 which is about 5mm further in than the 18x9 +30 ag wheels. I would suggest xxr(budget) or enkei(quality/value) over the ag's. Also check the xxr/raijin wheel thread to get better idea on how they fit. Good luck! |

Alright thank you very much I appreciate the info. I'm pretty set on the AG because of the offset and hear good things about them. I measured the 1.75 inch and it looks like the rear will be fine and have no poke but the fronts will need camber bolts. Thanks again for all the info Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

What tire size are you on? He wanted to use a 255/35. I bet you aren't anywhere near that size. Probably more than an inch smaller, and that is why I made that suggestion...

I am seeking some assistance in a set of wheels (Work VS-XX) that I am looking at. I will be switching to bags soon so I want to ensure that I will have enough clearance between the wheels/tires and the bags. Will I have any issues running with O-disks up front or will A-disks be needed? I do not plan on upgrading from the stock brakes. I prefer O-disks over A-Disks as I like the disks to have less of a curve. Below are the specs that I am considering and my pros and cons in comparison to each other.
Option A, A-Disk: Front: 18x8.5 +32Option B, O-Disk: Front: 18x8.5 +26Option B, Mixed: Front: 18x8.5 +32 (A-Disk)As you can see, from my understanding and math, the O-Disks are my best and personally more desirable option so the question becomes, will O-Disks be suitable up front and in the rear? If O-Disks are not suitable up front but are good in the rear, I may go with a mixed option with A-Disks in the front and O-Disks in the rear.

UPDATE: Works Wheels USA has stated that the VS-XX 18x8.5 +26 w/ O-disks will clear the front and rear OEM calipers.

Hey Guys! so I am in the process of trying to rebuild my blitz 03s for my 2013 Frsthis will be my first rebuild and to be quite honest, I am a little unsure of what offsets and width of rims I should be shooting for. My plan while the rebuild is happening is to get control arms and top mounts so that I can achieve at least -6 to -8 up front and the same maybe more for the rear and to slam the car low enough to tuck the top of the rim. here are the specs I am thinking about.
18x9.5 up front with 4.5 inch barrels for clearance. offset I was thinking +5or +10 18X10.5 in rear with 4.5 inch barrels for clearance also. Offset most likely +15 I guess my question is, with these offsets, will it fit?? ive seen a set of rotiforms that were 18x9.5 -5mm and 18x10.5 +10mm fit on a bagged brz. I'm just so skeptical of spending 3000$ on a rebuild and getting it wrong. if anyone could possibly help me maybe understand a little more about low offsets and if they will fit, that would be much appreciated. sorry in advanced for noob questions and to the purists who don't like stanced cars lol |
