Wink Need help...

Ok so I have a hyper blue brz and was thinking to getting new wheels and tires for it. I was gonna buy the xxr 530 flat black 18x9.75 but I'm wondering will these fit with out having to do any fender rolling etc. and what would be the best offset for the rear tires so it sits flush. And I'm gonna do a staggered fitment so I wanna go with the 18x8.75 for the front but the offset is throwing me for a loop lol. So can I get some insight on what would be the best offset for this setup and also I'm getting coilovers😝

Search.
+33 8.75 is the only one that will fit without extreme camber and or stretched tires.

SEARCH, look at pics. And decide on your own.

Flush is relative. Everyone has a different definition. The lower the car, lower the offset is needed. The wider the tire, more offset is needed.

8.75 +33 on a mild drop about an inch or so is close to "flush"

Welcome to posting to the forum, hypebrz302 ..........

What kind of new tires? I reckon that depends a lot on how you intend to drive the car ...... daily driver, touring, just fun on country roads, autocross, track.......or just for looks.

Deciding that should help you narrow down the field.

Rims? My take is that there ain't nutten wrong with the OEM rims, if they will hold the tires you choose......

Well depending upon your definition of "daily" that setup would range from mildly annoying to "What the hell have I done to my car"!

Oh, and "Staggered fitment"? Really? Fitment?

Well, as a DD in Delaware, with a possible exception for some winter tires, I'd suggest you stick to the tires that came with your car. Different rims may be in order if you want to be "different" ....... but, who would be impressed .... ??

As far as staggered wheels ......yes, they do have a place, but IMHO ...... not on your car ......
