I see that. But Cesium seems to think he may have mistyped. Possibly could be 9.5

Note:

18x8.5 + 42 = Face 2, ie you can haz concavez, same as 9.5.

Yep, you're right! OP's rims are def 9.5 but according to the link they make the 8.5 in the concave face. I'd still ask for visual confirmation before you put money down. There's no way an 8.5 with that much concavity has a 42 offset, and there is no other Japanese 8.5" rim that's so agressive afaik (and I only know bc I been rim shopping). In fact I might ask for confirmation myself -- I want those bitches too if the numbers ain't lyin!

There was a discussion on this spec wheels a couple of times before, and someone did mention they are "same concave" as wider ones, but it was not certain. I guess either the OP can confirm, or the vendor you are getting them from, afterall, they should know what they are selling .

Just because this 235 tire looks stretched on them, doesn't mean those could not be 8.5. My co-worker had 245 width Contis and they looked slightly stretched on 9 wide, no "fat" by any means... This is not too far off.
