I have had to get the rear guards rolled but they still scrub out when I have people in the back and hit a large dip. The car is still at stock height. I want to get some lightweight 18s instead, as the rubber will be cheaper and try to add to whole the sleeper look. I have a contact in japan who can track down some wheels for me I just need to know what I want to get....Work have some good looking 18s that are available in lots of different offsets.Here are a few links to some of the wheels I am looking at;http://www.jdmconcept.com.au/index.php?option=com_jdm&p=detail&cid=34http://www.jdmconcept.com.au/index.php?option=com_jdm&p=detail&cid=591http://www.jdmconcept.com.au/index.php?option=com_jdm&p=detail&cid=21http://www.jdmconcept.com.au/index.php?option=com_jdm&p=detail&cid=48http://www.jdmconcept.com.au/index.php?option=com_jdm&p=detail&cid=213I am looking to upgrade the brakes to JBT 6 piston front with either 355 or 380mm front rotors and doing 4 piston 355mm rotors at the rear. Will 18s clear these? I will be changing the suspension to tein coilovers with edfc, swaybars and new bushes at the same time.My question is;If I went for a staggered set up with 18x8.5 fronts and 18x9.5 rears, what is the best offset for this type of setup or what staggered setup would you recommend? or has anyone got any experience with work wheels or this sort of set up?I hope I haven't asked to many questions.Cheers,Pissant Edited 20/07/11 06:25 AM by pissant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also why go staggered? 18x9.5 +30 will fit all round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
