Volk racing VR21C
 
Hey guys I was thinking of putting on the rx a set of volk racing vr21c..I have the chassis completely stock ( no wide body kits).
what is the max size of these rims that I can put on it without exceeding too much the body?

thank you in advance!!!🦾

Doesn't look like the any of the fitments offered will be ideal for the FD. 18x8.5 +39 will be fine for the front. For the rear, you could go 18x9.5 +46 and run maybe a 10mm spacer, but that's about it.

the inset is referring to what we would call offset, not the depth

so those would be 8.5” +35 and 9.5” +30

you’ll be better off looking for a different wheel with deeper offset options

Thank you! I think I’ll follow your advise or directly switch to another wheel

it was a long time ago since I owned an FD3S and likely am not the best source.

some of these old threads might be helpful:
