FD Wheel Fitment

Hey everyone I'm really looking into getting some Volk Racing GT-7's for my FD. I was looking at some 18x9 with a high type clearance and 18x10 with a low type clearance. I was wondering if these will fit with stock suspension and if so what offset I can get away with. The fenders are stock right now but if need be I will roll them to get these wheels/tires to fit. Anyways if anyone has any info on these and where I could get them at a reasonable price I'd appreciate the help. Here is where I got some info on them if anyone wants to take a look at what I'm talking about except I want them in gunmetal. Thanks http://www.frsport.com/Volk-Racing-GT-7_c_259.html

I had Volks GTUs in 18x8 with 29mm offset with 225/40-18 tire up
front and 18x10 with 44mm with 275/35-18 tire on the rear using Tein Flex coil overs. Stock fenders. Only rubbed once whn I took a speed bump a bit to fast while making a turn.

Ya seriously contact me because i'll be able to maximize your lip depth.

90% of the time you don't need HI Disk for the FD due to its recessed caliper position.

In any case PM me and we'll walk through the steps and details to make sure you get the phattest lip and best offsets available for your setup.

Thanks,
Rishie
