Lauren 2259 Report post Posted March 20, 2015 I think if you're NA then 225 is about as wide as you'd want to go. Think 235s is the limit. Think you can still get a bit of dish with a reduction in offset on say a 9J rim or 8.5. I'm not OCD about many things, but grammar is one of them! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keethos 842 Report post Posted March 20, 2015 Problem is the wheels I want only have 1 offset option (I believe) for 8.5 and 9.0 widths and they are what they call a Face 1 design, where as the 9.5J are a Face 2 design which is a lot more concaved. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lauren 2259 Report post Posted March 20, 2015 Cool, proper JDM wheels too. 9.79kg at that size. That's quite good considering but 600g heavier than a stock wheel. Reckon 8.5's would be better in regard to weight. Is there any reason why you are going so wide? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keethos 842 Report post Posted March 20, 2015 I knew you'd approve....was thinking of keeping this hush hush the main reason again is because of the concaved face and secondly, I'd like to go FI at some point in the distant future so don't want to have to get another set of wider wheels at a later date. 18 x 9.0J Face 1: 18 x 9.5 Face 2: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lauren 2259 Report post Posted March 21, 2015 Fair enough. The whole concave thing is certainly very cool at the moment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
