I was thinking of following Nismo's example and going with 9.5 and 10.5 width. Do you think they'll do those widths and appropriate offsets in that wheel? (my guess is no). And thanks all for the comments about bending. I'm coming out of MR2-land, so I haven't had wheels this large to deal with. AW11 owners are experts at conserving rotational momentum (I've got ultralight 15s!) |

I was thinking about going the 18 inch route as well but was wondering how would they look. |

For the track I have been thinking of 9.5x18's on all four corners with maybe 275's. It would allow for tire rotation but I believe you would have to use spacers to do it right if you wanted the same offset on the wheels.
Anyone done this yet?

Edit: He says they are "9,5 x 10,5 et11" but does not mention diameter. I assume 19's. Video: CE28 Bronze Edit 2: how big of a tire can you fit on 19x9.5 +22 and 19x10.5 +12 Last edited by cavemancan; 03-28-2012 at 01:08 AM. |

275/35-18 which are 25.4" tall. Stock is 26.6/ With the car lowered, I wound up scraping the bottom of the bumper where it meets the undertray (stillen bumper) every time I hit a braking zone and completely ground that part of the bumper away. Now I run 295/40-18 Hoosiers, which are 27.3" tall, but they get the job done. This is an early shot of my car with the 275s on it and lowered only on eibachs. this is it with the 295s:

Anyone know how big of a tire can you fit on 19x9.5 +22 and 19x10.5 +12??
Assume Swift springs and roll if necessary.
