18x10.5 +5 clear fronts w/ overs?
Hey guys,

I've sold my wheels and trying to see what my options are out there. If I get these wheels I'm looking at, I'll be getting 25mm fronts and 30mm rear overs and I'm wondering if any of you would know if they'll clear suspension?

Specs are: 18x10.5 +5 18x11.5 -10

I've done the calculations for the fenders, I'm just wondering about clearing suspension. Thanks!

Jaime

Perfect, thank you! I'm running Stance and I can't image the dimensions would be too different.

Many folks run 18x10 or 10.5 with offsets in the +45 to 50 range, albiet with coilovers, so you should have room to spare at +5.
