I see you had a width difference, which may make the answer difficult.

The NT01 are noticeably better. That being said the R888 are not horrible at all. They are being replaced by R888R and it is supposed to be better but still not quite as good as the NT01. The R888R is cheaper as well.

^Beautiful Z’s above I must say you all must be proud of your Z’s and how far they have come along. I plan on doing the Enkie RPF1’s 18X10.5 +15 squared with 285/40/18 Nitto tires all around. Also for the drag strip I will using Nitto 05R’s again since I really liked grip and durability. The Nitto NT01’s would be another excellent choice.

Yeah I agree with them quicksilver. Being in atlanta, you arent far from grand truismo east. They do all sorts of track stuff and would probably give you the best alignment.

the 10.5's have more concave

This is true, they clear just fine. I run 15 mm spacers in the rear only to push the wheels out to be even with the fronts, but even without the spacers there no issue.

So now that Quicksilvers got his wheel/tire situation figured out, I have a slightly different question for the collective.

Looking for 18x12's (or 13's) to wrap in 335/30-18 Hoosier A7's. Seems like once you get past 18x10.5/11 available options decrease significantly. An option that doesn't weigh a ton and doesn't require selling a kidney to afford would be great.

You're not asking for much.

I know where you can get them. BUT they are out of your one kidney price range. Might be a kidney and ball.

Any quality wheel is going to cost you some payola, that being said...check out the Adavan GT. They make it in an 18x12. I almost went that route!

NorthStyle · 02-15-2018, 02:23 PM

xForgestar makes one (or more) sets in 18x12 as well... I wouldn't call them "quality" but just an option.

Forgeline GZ3R. 18x12 is $1,335.00. 18x13 is $1,390.00. Forgeline makes them all the way to 18x15. That's $1,390.00. They make any offset you want. Take about 3 months to get them tho.
