Will they fit? has any one tried it? will they rub.

Easy, short answer.

Yes, or no?

Cheers

depends on shitloads of things, width tyre size offset etc

by **barryogen** » Tue Mar 03, 2009 7:14 am

easy short answer is, depends

on the offset
on the design
on the tyre(profile, width, profile/width combination) thats on them

yes a 18x7.0 or 7.5 with a 42-45p offset will work run a 205/35/18 you may need to roll the guards slightly

They look horrible though. They'll sit the car so high off the ground....

not if rolling diameter doesnt change

= super low profile

i have 18x7 on my ae101 corolla if that helps

they would fit on ordinary springs or maybe a lowering spring, but you would have to chop some of the inside away and roll guards to make them work

Body kit doesn't count

I'm super stoked with the size of my 14"s, so my opinion doesn't count for much :lol:

who ever told you size doesnt matter was lying

ive got 17s on my ae111 s/strut, could only put a 42 offset on due to rubing on the strut. thats with factory outside dia retained, beware when putting in lowwering springs in tho, been told several times that the lowwer you go with super strut, the more risk you take in wearing out the extra ball joints

OMG so shiny! · by **Dell'Orto** » Tue Mar 03, 2009 7:27 pm

affroman runs 18's on his AE101, pretty sure its super strut.

off topic but want to see more pics of GTCRSHR's car

by **barryogen** » Tue Mar 03, 2009 8:53 pm

yeah, me too... certainly looks interesting from the single pic(above) that I've seen.

http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motor ... 014232.htm

Just wanna double check they will fit my car (ae111 s/s) you guys were mentioning 42-45p is that just for the 18".

by **Sh0ckwave** » Wed Mar 04, 2009 12:04 am

They should be fine, I have 17x7s 45p offset and they fit sweet.
