Looks like these are back in the running for me! I was going to run the deep concave, with 19x9.5, but I love these 18's.

There is def a nice amount of concave in these as you can see ! No need for the 19s ... Concave is all about the offset

Looks great. Nice and clean looking FRS.

ScionFR-S · 03-18-2013, 09:32 PM

So I see

I'll prolly run a 18x9.5 +38 w/ 255/30 or 255/35 on all corners if I do end up getting them.

the fronts should be able to fit although not positive , why would you want such a huge tire in the front ? U don't want a staggered setup?

NorseLegend · 03-19-2013, 12:10 PM

Thanks for the heads up. I'm honestly not the best with wheels. I've spent the past few days trying to figure it out, and in the hours since I said that I think I kind of got it.

This is all I've gotten so far; 18x8.5 +38 front,18x9.5 +38 with 235/40R18 and a 255-275/40R18 in rear. I've been reading through the wheels stickie, and it seems like this may work, I'm just not sure how it'll work and if I'll need to stretch.

In other words... Your setup. I just realized that.

Sorry if this is a bit annoying by the way.

yeah I was in the same boat and took the risk of spending all that money on something I wasn't completely sure it would fit, looks like I pulled it off and I can now happily help out there's who want the same fitment type, 275 would fit but honestly the 265 look plenty big and are absolutely meaty as shit man haha , if u want my setup go for it bc I can honestly say it looks awesome and u don't even need a drop to close he gap , there's a very slight gap about an inch an a half max

If going 255-275 18 on rear you'll want a 35 series not 40

+38 will give you some mild poke, more so in rear if you stay on stock suspension

Yes def a 265/35 bc you want the same size height as the front give or take
I think 265 will look perfect

Alright, thanks very much both of you. Wheels are definitely one of the parts I've been more worried about.

NorseLegend · 03-19-2013, 10:12 PM

Just one last question, about how much of a wheel gap do you have? Looks like an inch or so.

Yupp about an inch to inch 1/2

wheels look nice! I'll probably upgrade to these once I go FI and upgrade my brakes. Until then I'll be running motegi traklites
