Will 18x10 and 18x9 fit on my 91 FC??????
Looking into a set of baller *** work vs-xx wheels and im wondering if i can get these babys to clear the stock body with a little roll/pull. or if 18's even look good on a FC with no aero.
18X10 +22
18x9 +24
18X10 +22
18x9 +24

sure thing those will fit.
but without aero it will look pretty tall unless you go with super thin sidewall tires.
you would probably fit easiest with a 215 to 235 front tire and a 235 to 255 rear tire.
a little roll/pull will work out fine and if you run a bit of negative camber you wont need much fender modding.
vs-xx are so siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick!
good luck mang.

owen knows what's up but i wouldn't make a blanket statement like that.
What suspension are you running?
I can't get a 9" +24 to clear any coilovers I've ever tested on the FC.
i.e. JIC, ZEAL, Stance
I've always run a 9" +15 max to run square tire on there, leaving some space for tire flex to boot....

maybe the 18x9's fit differently?

Thanks for all the info guys, i did a test fit without tires and the rears clear the coilovers but hit the heat sheild for the muffler and the fronts rub my coilovers (Powered by max) but it looks like with a 5-10mm spacer it will clear, now i need to roll my fenders and rock these bad boys.

I'm running 18x9 +25, running a 3mm slip on. Running Zeal Function B6s, I had 2mm of clearance in the front without the the spacer. 225/40 with around -2 degrees of camber.
I run a 18x10 +22 in the rear. I cut the heat shield off. 235/40, Approx. -3/-2.5 of camber
newspaper roll on front and rear. good clearance
