18x8 +40 WITH 10mm spacer? LFA wheels :) - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

jacobzking · 06-05-2013, 07:07 PM

On ebay you can get LFA replica wheels for only about $650. they're the perfect size and offset... but they are only available in 5x114.3. Project Kics sells a 10mm spacer conversion for $250 but its a 10mm spacer. would the wheels poke out a lot? essentially, this would be like having an 18x8 +50 wheel, right?

added a photoshop of the car with LFA wheels...

18x8 +40 should be fine adding a 10mm spacer will make it +30 which is probably an unnecessary cost. Stock is +48. Only available in 5x100 isn't a negative given we have a 5x100 bolt pattern.

I think the OP means " but they are only available in 5X114.3"

In which case he'd need a hub conversion kit making it not very viable.

jacobzking · 06-05-2013, 08:21 PM

That's what I'm saying. It's a +40 wheel but I would have to use the 10mm spacer adapter. Bad idea?

jshadeck · 06-05-2013, 10:05 PM

I saw a post for 5x114.3 hubs... U may wanna search for it if u really want 5x114.3 rims

i see that megan sells the 5x114.3 conversion. i'm a megan distributor so that would be the way to go

BUT... if I just went with the cheap spacer converters... what would that look like? i can never figure out the whole offset calculation thing. wheel is +40 spacer is 10mm so...? is that equivalent to a +30 wheel or +50 wheel? in either case, how would it look?

You could make 18x8 +30 work if you really gotta have these wheels.

DriftEightSix · 06-06-2013, 03:03 AM

sounds like alot of work for replica.

If you had the real deal yeah sure go for it but not for replica... thats my honest opionon.

jacobzking · 06-06-2013, 03:32 AM

Anyone have any 18x8 +30 wheels on FRS? I'm trying to pick out wheels with my wife and she hates everything I've shown her. Everything looks "too ricey" to her. She suggested stock Lexus/Toyota wheels. That's where I came up with the idea for LFA wheels.

I have some 18x7.5 +48 volk se37ks and used some H&R spacers to make them all flush - 20mm in front and 30mm in the rear. So in doing so I basically have 18x7.5 +28 in the front and 18x7.5 +18 in the rear.

Funny I wasn't into flushness prior to my FRS, but now that I have it perfectly flush (with help from spacers) I can can say having it flush looks way better than having it sucked in like stock.

I have 17x8.5+32
Rears fit and are perfect.
Fronts poke a smidge.
So these will be fine

dori. · 06-06-2013, 07:45 AM

contact rotiform and have them make a set of SNA in 5x100... very similar design to the LFA wheels:

as far as stock wheels go, you don't have much from Toyota/Lexus... I think the only options are from the Corolla, Matrix and tC. I don't think Lexus has anything wth a 5x100 bolt pattern.

Subaru wheels however will mostly fit. Outside of the STI and the Tribeca I think most of their wheels are 5x100.
