Rim Width Options Clearance 18x9 18x10?

Does anyone know if you run 18x9 safely or require a fender roll?

Will work with no rubbing on mild drop (springs1.5-2 inch), depending on offset. Will rub with 2.5-3+inch drop. Will need to fender roll, possibly pull, depending how low, offset

18x10 i would not run on tein springs unless you plan on running some combo of negative camber, rolled fenders, and stretching tires.

It can fit. Aaron got 18x10... I believe, to fit his ILX. The wheels he had for Sema. No idea what his camber specs were. I believe he does have rolled fenders.

I suggest a fender roll regardless. Then you can fit either 9 or 10in wide depending on how much negative camber you are willing to run and what size tires you go with.

As well, if you go 9.5, Danny has found either 40 or 45 offset will hit the struts. So I suggest a low 20s offset if you go 10in.

That sale ends today... are you buying today?

I'm an authentic wheel guy. My buddy bought some cast Work Wheels in 17in for only $500. Their sale price on those reps beats my buddys authentic Work purchase, price only, but not sale price after today costs more than some used authentic wheels.

Living in so cal, wheels are everywhere. I suggest going on facebook and adding Wheel Whores (SoCal). You will find tons of reps and some good bargains as well. That is where I found mine and my buddies Works.

Also, VRwheels has great deals all the time. They are located in So Cal so you can go check out their invetory, call them, or go on IG. They currently have some 18x8/9 authentic Blitz splitrims for only $1100. Such a steal!!

I changed my mind i dont want to mess with the hassle of going wider wheels, so i just went for 8.5s

Yes authentic is the way to go but for now I'll live with some XXR's i had good history with them never been bad to me.
