Wheel Width (Inches): 9.5"
PCD Bolt Pattern: 5x114.3

9.5's +28 will not fit up front. with like a 10mm spacer they probably will, but you will need overfenders with that unless you stretch a 215 onto it... then still maybe not...

the second set (8.5's front, 9.5's rear) should fit no problem. maybe roll the fenders just a bit depending on what size tires you want.

I love the Emotion CR Kai's. They're a bit expensive though. I live in New York City when im not down in school in Florida so i really cant have to light of a wheel because one good NYC pothole and im screwed. I would most likely get a cheap set of 16's for the track. These are just my street wheels. I figured the 9.5's up front wouldnt work Thanks everyone. Any more wheel suggestions?

you live in nyc? i wouldn't run 18's with skinny *** profile in nyc.

and i would stay away from rota. too many bent/broken rotas...
i don't think sportmax is much better, but to be honest i haven't heard of them breaking/bending. they do weigh a ton compared to other brands in the same size, however.
