You might be SOL. The owner who had the car a few years ago never posted the specs. I know the car was up for sale for a while, but I don't know if it ever sold or if any ever had the specs. You could probably get them by sending the picture to CCW.

EDIT: Sorry, wrong car. The car I was thinking had a painted from lip:

I believe he posted the specs some where and I think they are 18x10 50mm offset all around with 265/35 tires.

Looks like the standard CCW fitment, albiet over-lowered with too much camber.

Agreed. Looks to be the standard CCW fitment to run 18X10s.

Same car, just different stages. You're correct that the owner never listed the specs. He always stated that his friend helped him and that he didn't know them, and refused to do any sort of measurements.

I've always had a soft spot for that car, and I was in the market when he was selling it, but he was asking quite a bit for an otherwise stock R1 that had almost 60Kmiles on the stock motor.

NICE car. A little low for my taste, but that's easy to fix.

How is it even possible to fit 18x10 in the front? I see the offset is suppose to be around +50 but I thought at those offsets it would rub with the suspension components. I'm currently sitting on Eibach prokits and the front is just too low and likes to rub when pushing the car through uphill or downhill turns.

With 18x10 it just seems like it would tear the inner fender apart. The tires right now seem so close to the fender bolts.

vr6t3t4, since you started this whole thing with your high school post, mark my words well:

Keep garbage like that up and you're headed for a vacation. You got the wrong guy's attention, and moving forward if you don't comply I'll be a lot less polite.

Natey, seems like you can dish it out as well as any of us, but likewise play nice or you'll be in the same boat as our vee dub member......

Let's rerun...I commented on how low the guy's car is (agreeing with the posts above me), got told to 'kill myself' by someone who I've never had any kind of conversation with. I told the guy to fk off and exposed his little 16x12 with 7" spacer plan. He then spent time finding an old pic of mine, & photoshopping more out of left field, misspelled lameness into it.
I log on two weeks later to see that I get an infraction in my profile for telling the guy to fk off. (NO pm telling me to cool it, or any kind of warning at ALL). I've been a moderator on several interned car clubs for years, and I've never done that, even to guys who I don't necessarily even like.

Stoked. Hey, if you're bored and feel like it, check out my last five or so posts to see how my life has been going since I posted my rebuttal to a random, unsolicited insult.

Natey, you should have received a PM along with the infraction. You didn't receive anything? Post #19 should contain some info for you, not sure if you missed that.

You probably didn't know this, but Natey's young cousin was killed in a motorcycle racing accident recently:

So your 'kill yourself' comment, which was shitty to begin with, became quite a bit worse.
