In order to clear the brakes the wheels would sit halfway out the fenders, so it's not something we suggest unless you have a Rocket Bunny kit for example.


Oh I see, that's really just a bummmmmer . What about the Deep Concave?


18x8.5 OR
18x9.0 OR
18x9.5
In Deep Concave? Will it work on Normal FRS (not widebody)

In 18" the only deep concave fitments are 18x10, 18x11 and 18x12. Of course 18x10 you can squeeze in there but it's an aggressive fitment, needs some extra work (camber/stretched tires). 18x8.5, 9 and 9.5 are all semi-concave so if you're ok with some compromise you can do semi-concave fronts and deep concave rears like a 18x8.5 or 18x9 up front and 18x10 on the back possibly.

Thank you so much, this is very well explained . 18x9 Semi-Concave seems like my options. Next thing is the offset... Which offset do I get to get a perfect flush. I don't want it to poke out.

Forgestars are built to order, so depending on if you're lowered, if you have a BBK or if you have sway bars, whatever it might be, they're tailor made specific to your fitment to be perfectly flush out of the box without having you pick the offset. Just PM me back when you're ready to order and we'll get it all set up
