wheel offset questions

I am about to buy a set of 18 inch volk SE37 A's off my friend's supra. They are 18- 9.5 all around. The question I have is whether or not they will fit on my FD. Is the offset the same? Will the wheels fit?

to run 18x9.5s, you will probably need a +45 to +50 offset. You will also need aftermarket coil-overs with a maximum 2-1/2 inch OD spring. With those wheels, you would have to run 255/35s to keep stock tire+wheel diameter. 265/35 will be too tall for the fronts and 285/30s aren't recommended for 9.5-inch wheels.

With stock style coil springs, 50-mm offset with 9.5 x 18 would work with 265/35-18...you just have to be choosey with the tire...Pirelli P-Zero Asymmetricos will work in that size...they're 25.1 inches tall, which is about right overall diameter-wise

If you want 10 x 18s with 285/30-18s all around YOU GOTTA GO WITH 2.5-INCH COIL SPRINGS
