18x8.5/9.5 fitment on FC3S TurboII

Yes, I searched. FC too short to search for, other terms didn't bring up anything for this particular size/configuration.

Will 18x8.5/9.5 with FD offsets fit on a TurboII with spacers? If so, what size? Hopefully the cheap ones will work. =)

Justin,

The 8.5 will rub the outer fender I'm pretty damn sure regardless of what tire size you try to run. The offsets you'll need are no higher than +32. So around a +30. now I am pretty sure that it will rub your outer fender without some good mods. You'll need to run a 225/35/18.

As for the rear, anything between +35 and +38 will be good. I run that width in the rear of mine, just like Seth. The cheap spacers typically only come in a one inch width. That's probably too thick.

sounds like it might be cheaper to get some new wheels and sell those or something. There's some pretty sick Enkei Tuning wheels that are hitting the shores right now. PM me if you want me to hook you up as I said I would in the past. We get a spanking deal from Enkei North America.
