Will these SSR wheels fit my FD in front?
 

I'm almost about to buy some SSR GT3's that are 18X9.5 all around with a +55 offset and 255/40/ZR18. Can anyone confirm for me asap if these will fit my FD? Thank you much!

I know someone out there has to know?? They're a 5X114 Lug pattern...

1. You will need aftermarket coilovers with 2-1/2" diameter springs to clear up front.

2. You may need (but probably not) aftermarket trailing arms in the back to clear the tire.

3. The tires are the wrong size and are over an 1" taller than stock. Proper tire size for those wheels would be 255/35 or 265/35 18.

4. The brake caliper clearance might be affected up front, due to the high offset. This is probably not an issue with the stock brakes but may be with larger aftermarket ones.

5. Points 1, 2, and 4 can be addressed by using 5-6mm spacers at all four corners. The use of spacers will almost certainly require fender rolling up front.

Definately one of the first things I noticed was that the tires were a bit large. What is the diameter of the stock springs in front?

Stock springs are 4"IIRC.

They just may fit. I have the SSR GT3's on mine with stock suspension. 10" in back 9" in front. 265 35 18's in the rear and 245 40 18's in the front. fits nicely, but I'm not dropped yet. I'm going to be throwing 285's or 295's in the back once these tires are gone.

That offset is a bit high. Your rears will contact the rear trailing arms. Your fronts will contact the lower spring perch. You can fix this by adding 5-mm spacers and longer wheel studs fr/rr. Use 265/35-18s. It will fit better with 9.5 wides. 255/35-18s fit better on 9 wides. Good luck!
