lowered on 18x9's

[f3racer]

anyone running on 18x9 wheels and lowered? i want to know how well it fits. i am looking into either 18x9 fr500's or 18x8 bremmer kraft br05's. id prefer a wider wheel and tire package for performance but do not want to compromise with something thats going to rub.

18x9 +35 w/ 245/45/18 will fit with a bit of fender rolling. i wouldnt go with a lower offset or a wider tire than this. that said youre not gonna gain any performance out of it, 18x9's tend to be heavy.

a 245 on a 9 inch rim? i have 255's on an 8 incher now.

Might rub being lowered. Fender side.

1.7'' drop 18x9 with 275/40/18 and +35 offset. front is fine but the rear has only rubbed once.

perfect. thanks

go with skinnier tires and 40 offset and ill be fine!

i think im going to go with the fr500's with 265's. i cant get over how good your car looks man.

needs rolled fenders in the rear. i can imagine this thing eating tires if you got anything in the trunk.


that said, if the fr500's are offset 30 itll be mexi flush w/ 265's.

I love your thought process because I agree.
