The Deep Dish wheel thread

Well, I admit... this is more or less what I'm looking for for myself but I figure lots of peopl would be interested.


So If you own an FD with deep dish wheels, post some pics here and copy the following spec list for us to know. It might help others to find out what will work on their car or how to 'make' it work.

f.e.:I see people running 10X18 in the back with offsets ranging from 24 to 50 and depending on tire size and or camber they can make it work


Wheel brand:
Wheel model:
Wheel size:
Front wheel width:
Tire size front:
Rear wheel width:
Tire size rear:
Lowered? Yes/ NO (if yes, by how much)
Wheelarches: Lipped/Rolled/ wide arch (if wide arch, by how much)

Camber? front/back

Nice thread, finding out what size wheels fit an FD is a breeze thanks to the wheelsizing excel sheet.
But finding out if a certain wheel has some nice dish in FD sizes is a lot harder to find out.

How do you determine how much your car is lowered? I guess measuring from the top of the to the center of the wheel or the floor. But how much is stock height?
