Do the Work Emotion CR 9,5 x 18 fit the FD..??

Hi..

I love the Work Emotion CR and i want them in 9,5 x 18" but i don't know if they will fit my FD. They come in ET 39 and the dealer says they will fit perfect...

Does anybody have these wheels on a FD and maybe have some pics of it..??

Thanx

will it fit? yes.

in japan, the t.h factory FD has 18x9.5+45 CR kai (iirc) - so it's been done. 20s are do-able. I've seen quite a few 9.5, but I can't recall any wider...

(unfortunately the t.h factory site is down, otherwise I'd be able to post a pic of their very tasty car)

Yeap, they'll fit, I believe my offset is 38 all around, 8.5 in the front and 9.5 in the rear, the front is close and I pushed some of the fender lip out while doing a donut, so I'm planning on shaving it off sometime this week. The back no problems and should be able to fit a 265/35 although right now I have 245/40s.

becareful with the advices guys!

18x9.5 at an offset of 39 in front will NOT fit. Just because you have a wheel in the front with a 38 offset is not the same with a 8.5 size wheel versus a 9.5 wheel.

you might want to go and search the suspension forum and look at the stickies.

Good Catch. I was assuming that he was only talking about the rear, I would think that it is common sense that a 9.5 up front would not fit without some modifications but then again the question has been asked before.
