these are starting to grow on me, i know other azine members have ran them before, but with a high offset. i'm not really a wheel fitment guru, so i'm going to throw out some sizes and you tell me if it will fit or not, what will look best/stance...doesn't matter if i have to roll fenders first time for everything

pros/cons...bitching and moaning lmk

 

I'm a huge fan of those wheels. I would love a set of those for my TL.

I think the first link posted, 18x8.5 30mm offset, would look best.

Then again the staggered blue 18s would be dope as fuck on a WDP TL. 15mm offset is pretty aggressive though.

 

loonatix14 recently got a set. they look great on his car. rolled/pulled the fenders and everything.

 

15mm offset is aggressive n good, wonderin how much work do i need to do to the fenders..., but i dont want it to stick out

 

18x9.5", 5x114.3, 15mm Offset has my vote

 

I'm running 18x9.5 +15 on my car. Rolled and pulled fenders a bit. But I'm for the flush look, it all depends on what you want. Also, if you want aggressive, you have to run a stiff suspension set up.

how about these two sizes above? not liking the fact that if i roll/pull fenders and use stock wheels later on in the future it will look

 

17s are going to look too small IMO. The 18s are a good mix of width and offset. badazzTL-S is running 18x9 with a 22 offset and I think they look perfect. Check this thread:

You could always get the 18s with the 30 offset and throw some spacers on em.

 

gotta hit the sack, but i don't want to roll/pull...will read that thread tomorrow...thanks

 

Let me know what you think about this set-up. I believe he rolled his rear fenders just as a precautionary measure.

 

ah...just read the full 2 page...love the set up...but i don't feel like doing the fender work...wondering if 18 x 9 or 9.5 with +20-30 o/s will work with no fender work

 

i was actually looking into these and the varrstoen, if i get this im going for 18x10.5 +15


or 18x9.5 +15 all around, i already got rolled fenders thats no biggie, i duno about the pull!

 

15 offset is too aggressive for tl fenders it gonna need a roll slight pull, or just camber it. Well that is if your low like me. 30 offset will be fine maybe just roll fenders not too hard. I wouldn't consider pulling unless ur good at it. I agree above that 17 are too small go with 18 x 9 or 18 x 8.5 if you don't want fender work. 35 + offset should clear your stock fenders. Lower than that, your going into fender work( rolling, pulling, etc) Hopes this helps.

 

so say if i decide to go 18x9.5 +15....i will have to roll, pull, and what else to fenders?

 

Well what do you plan on doing with your car? 15 offset is pretty low for the TL, I would recommend going with an offset 30 or more just to play it safe since you don't want run into fender work. Remember the stock offset for the TL is in the 40s. If I recall, bforbrian had RPF1 with a high offset and they look good on his car, but he also had some beefy tires.

My fenders pulled:
