Is this a good offset for the FD?

Advan Racing RS-D (5x114) 18x8/18x9 staggered

18x8 +37 (5x114) 👈 👉 18x9 +45 (5x114)

Me personally, I wouldn't bother spending that sort of money on a wheel that narrow. If you're gna spend Advan money, go wider. I have 18x9.5 all around w/+35 and my front fenders are slightly rolled, rear is not.

I like these wheels a lot and I'm actually considering them, but in 18x10 with a lower offset. Look thru the gallery and see what sizes work best, bc 8 wide does not.

an 8+37 and 9+45 will not look good.... you will need spacers for days to not be super sunken in. listen to manny and browse the wheel fitment thread and see what sizes are best

I think a 15mm and a 5mm spacer should do the trick

Do what you want, were telling you it's not a good idea and you're doing it anyway.

good luck

He probably wouldn't. Since he already said "it's not a good idea." Go wider and a better offset. I fit an 18x9.5 +30 with no issue. So 15mm spacer for you at least out back. A 20mm or maybe even 25mm would be better. Check out willtheyfit.com to try out various fitment possibilities. Or, browse the few thousands of pictures over at https://www.rx7club.com/suspension-w...itment-895289/

Quoted for truth. Some people are hard headed.
