so let's discuss the craziest fitment possible. any size and offset is available, they are custom made to order by [url]www.diamondracingwheels.com[/url] and they are hella cheap.

here's what they'd look like. i am not crazy about the color, but it's close to what i would do. ps i suck at paint.

these are also perfect for those of you that want to clear your brembos with steelies/slicks.

mine were 9.5" wide, the wheel well just isn't wide enough. I think i measured, and it was like 9 5/8" inches wide

haha, me wheels literally did not fit. The Super Hiro's were fail. +45 in the rear with like 25mm of spacer. still rubbed the inside fender liner so bad all the push rivets are gone.

mike, try 9" wide, +35 offset

i think you could do it easily with 18's.

i was thinking about 18x9.5 with 35+ offset

Didn't you read my post about the width of the wheel well?

You could always roll and pull the fenders, which i may eventually do. I need to see if i can return the rear 19's and maybe pick up a set with a different offset.

You can't just throw anything you feel like in there. You have to be careful and make sure it fits. that was my problem. Lack of research...

yeah i hear ya, i was thinking 9" wide with a 215 would be a modest stretch and nice fitment. i'd be happy with that.

I'd like a set that barely clear the brakes, something like 15"x10" for slicks. I read what you posted will, wouldnt changing the offset so that more of the wheel is outboard work?
