im in the process of picking up some rims. but the the 18x8.5 +52 offset
up front seems like it will look pretty close to stock. anyone here
running an offset similar to this? pics?
btw, this is going on an FD. these rims are stupid hard to come across,
especially for the price im getting them at. haha dont wanna say
what kind of rims, dont want anyone to take them

i was afraid of that. i hear a lot of bad things about spacers,
but will a 10mm spacer be a bad idea? i know that using
1 in. spacers are a big "no." but will 10mm have any handling/
cornering/high speed issues?

well the rims im trying to get are volk CE28n time attacks.
i believe they weigh 17 - 18.5 lbs. per rim.
i love these rims, but i just hate how they are so hard to find
in the right offsets. i wanted to run a +40 offset upfront,
but the guy selling me the rims has it in a +52. I've been
trying to find a deal on these rims for a REAL long time.
the rears are 18x9.5 +34, so im not too worried about those.
i've done some research, and i see that people recommend
using the spacers that have studs built in. are these really
safer? or will getting longer studs work just the same?

im thinking about getting these, but wont the stock studs
interfere?

from what i hear and from what i've read, you dont need to roll fenders.
but worst case scenario, it MAY require slight rolling, depending on suspension
and camber
