I want to see if I could run a 18x9.5 all the way around on my fd. I will use a sticky compound 245-255 tire. The offset I am guessing would be 35-38mm???

I have stock style lowered suspension and stock brakes. The wheels I like are enkie RP03 or the Enkie RPF1.

From the searches i've done so far, it is hard for me to tell. Anyone have direct experience with exactly what i want??

Thanks much

It'll be fine so long as you don't turn the steering wheel :-)

Cool...it's on then. Shaved inner fenders here I come with the welder!! =)

You need a +47 to +51 offset to run 18x9.5 up front with stock bodywork. Why would you run such narrow tires on wheels that wide? Ideal size would be 265/35 all around.

You can get SSR Competitions from the Tire Rack in 18x9.5 +50 offset.

What about running a 40-42mm offset??

I want to be able to rotate the tires and also have the same tire patch F to R.

I want wheels that look a little dished all around.

What part of "You need a +47 to +51 offset to run 18x9.5 up front with stock bodywork" did you not understand.

Take a serious look at the SSR Comps. You can run 18x9.5 +50 offset all around with 265/35 tires. You'll have more traction than you need and they'll look great.

Ok, what if I rolled the fenders a little and kept some negative camber in the front??

maybe I'll push my luck and try a 45mm offset

Why? Larger wheels require less negative camber and increasing it will result in poorer handling.

Why don't you just remove your fenders and drive around that way?
