2 pic requests: 18x9.5 rim with +40 mm offset, and another with a +35 mm offset
I am trying to decide wich offset to go with for my rear tires on my FD. So if you have any pics that show how much the wheel is tucked in (or out) I would really appreciate it.
For the front I am going to with 18x 8.5 with a +45 mm offset along with some coilovers (APex'i). So rubbing should not be a problem up front. And like I stated in the tittle: On the rear I am going with 18x9.5 but I am trying to decide which to go with either +35 mm or +40 mm offset.
Thanks,
M-
Edit- P.S. I was going to go for a volk racing wheel or something comparable, but I would be too afraid to park my car ANYWHERE. So this is the wheel that I am getting: The 18x9.5 weighs 23 lbs. Not a lightweight wheel but also not a pig either but according to axis the wheel is strong enough for track use. But I don't really care I don't track my car anyway

Awww, you focker, I am looking into those reverbs also in gold or graphite, for my black 93. I live on the eastcoast though.
Is your car Montego? I want pics as soon as you get them mounted!
BTW, go with the 35mm its only 10mm more toward the fender than the red car up there (that wheel looks too tucked in IMO) Remember, 1/2" is about 13mm, so you should be okay if you run a 255/35 rear and 235/40 front (I did the tire calculations and it is very close to stock diameter).

Yeah the color of my car is montego. But the car will most likely be yellow (not cym but yellow
) when I buy them. And of course I will post pics

I have 9.5's in back and front with a 45mm offset. Perfect in front, back is a bit inward for my tastes but I could fit a 285 out there without issue. I currently run 265's all around. I DO have the rears rolled.
