18x9.5 +45 will they fit???
i was looking at getting a set of ADR Cyphers, because a co-worker can get me a set pretty cheap, but, i'm not quite sure how they would fit. I'm not experienced much with offsets. Right now my car has stock suspension, but, i do plan on a lowering with either Eibach or Tien springs and probably koni struts. Anyhow will they fit good on an FD?? they are 18x9.5 +45 offset. Also, if they do fit what size tires would you recommend for F&R?? Thanks.

That's probably a bit wide in front, but I'm no expert. I have 18x8.5 up front with eibach springs (forgot my offset) but I rub a tiny bit whenver I go over a large bump. You should be fine in the rear though.

18x9.5 +45 offset will not fit up front without running a really stiff suspension at near to stock ride height (coilovers). Well, it might fit but it will probably catch the lip fairly easily. Those will work great in the rear. 18x8.5 +45 offset would be great for the front.
BTW, just because you can get some wheels for cheap, doesn't mean you should. Those ADR wheels weigh a ton and they're cheaply made. They don't belong on an FD, IMO. Personally, I would use the stock wheels any day of the week over them. But it's YOUR car, so do what you want.

Reminds me of my cousin and her weight problem. I would see her eating something bad and I would say "You know that's really bad for you but hey, it's YOUR ***

ive got the cyphers with the 35mm offset front and rear, im running the 18x8.5 up front, and the 9.5s in the rear. i have the eibach pro-kit. I only have minor rubbing of the drivers side front. I weighed the rear wheels with tires mounted, and they weighed a little under 50lbs. that aint too bad for 18s.
