Yup. As stated before, 19's would not look good on a stock body.

Sorry man, you're best bet is to ask RETed on the wheel size thread. The Official FC Wheel Fitment Thread. I'd ask the same question there. This thread is more for pictures than info... or at least that's what the title was. I was hoping that someone else would be able to chime in.

on my setup im tucking some and just get a little rub at full counter sliding.
but thats fun cause you get smoke off the fronts and lots of tire boogers on your mirrors.

and this, but this was with the 16's. same rolling diameter as the 18s though.

Yeah, the fender in the front is close to the tire but it works without any trouble since the front fenders are flared alittle bit, the rear is stock, no problems there either.

The offsets are:
Front: +25
Rear: +30

and i take it that their are no spacers, but [opinion insert here->] id go with a lower offset in the front, especially how the face of the rim sticks out past the lips... *shivers*

...but the rear are perfect

^It's a drift car, not a street car. It was built to drift in, and only drift in.

Some 18s look good on a stock body and some look like ***, imo it depends on the offset, lip and how much of the rotors you're showing...







18x8 +38 offset 225/40 front
18x9 +38 offset 275/35 rear

stock suspension, lol

I find it funny that people are getting insulted even though it's not even their car...
I guess all the drift bitches aren't feeling all high and mighty since all the comments aren't all positive in their favor, huh...

On that last pic...I dunno how you got it to fit, cause an 8.0", +38 isn't supposed to fit with the stock suspension up front...
And I thought 275's were just too tight to stuff on back...
