WedsSport SA10R 18x9.5" +45 with 255 Tire
Just got these to have extra wide wheels since have 18x7.5" and 18x9" so wanted a bit "fatter"

[]D [] []V[] []D ! Really showcases those TRD brakes. So weird though seeing people put all these performance upgrades on one then run stuff like Nito Invo tires that have shite grip.

These wheels and tires were ok on track last weekend but these wheels are also for daily driving so need decent wet grip. Most reviews have them as a pretty good balance and they seem to have more grip than the Michelin Pilot Sports that I had before.

I have found the INVOs in 225 width fine but in the 255 width the deep channel in them doesn't seem to run true and causes vibration. Don't think I'll get them again and likely to go back to Michelin Pilot Sport or to Bridgestone RE002 I think especially as I'm likely to use my 7.5" wheels with semi-slicks on track in the future.

No spacers. Wheels bolted straight on.

Those wheels are beautiful. Please tell us about the difference in ride quality on 255 vs 225.

A bit of a "warning" about these wheels.
They are beautiful and I love them but if you curb damage them they are almost impossible to get repaired back to new condition due to the lovely machined finish of the spokes and rim. The black parts of them are obviously easy to repair in comparison. As I have curb damage to three of my five wheels I am actually getting them painted gloss black. This means next time I damage them the repair is easy. They won;t look as beautiful but I can't stand looking at curbed wheels. I'll post some picks up of them in gloss black when done.
