im trying to order the best fitment i can, i wish the lip could be fatter though.
fronts:
18x9 +10 high disc
rears:
18x11 +28 low disc
still debating between champain gold or hyper black, im replacing some parts and adding a factory hood, lip spoiler on the back and it will be painted lamborghini grigio avalon

wondering if 11's would fit just fine in the rear

^ depends on the tire size, but 11's fit good, just roll the fenders, and maybe slight pull depending on various things...

keep us updated

Trying out some new wheels on the fd,
18x10.5 +19 Do-Luck Double Sixes
Originally wanted the gunmetal color but these wheels are pretty hard to come across in the United States, so I settled with the polish.
10.5 all the way around :O no good for my front fenders lol need to stretch some tires on them & get them shortened (if i keep them)
I originally had mesh wheels, so this is a pretty big change
im still getting use to them, wanted a nice shot of the car to see what my decisions were. still unknown. lol.

feedback?

car domain has previous wheel photos

& take a look at my latest photo

Im curious about your rears though, are the wheels 18x8.5 +28 all the way around? cause the offset in the rear look different from the front.

lol I would be more interested in the 9.5, than the 8.5. so in the end we want the same thing lol.
My brother wants to buy these wheels from me for his supra, but I dont think im going to give in.

Ive been looking into modifying the width of the front wheels. In SoCal theres a guy that widens and slims wheels and does a great job. You could even look into widing your lips, so you will have the offset you want.
Do-Lucks are so hard to come across >.<
its easier to get them fabricated how you want them.

thanks!
I appreciate all the help with fitment and recommendations from you!
I have a few iphone photos I can post up, the fitment on the front isnt too great, mainly because too large of a tire.
I only have the rear wheels with tires so in the pic I cheated and just put both rears on one side lol its still sitting like that *not being driven* :/

He is well thought of.
He says he is the only one left doing this correctly.

He did sets of porsche rims years ago for me.
Reasonable prices.
He says aluminum only.
Cool guy.
