Which 18" width and offset in Varrstoen ES221 ?
Hey guys, need your help please, I found these wheels, like the look and price, and they come in green :), can you help me to choose the correct size, width and offset?
Here is the criteria I am looking for: 1. As flush as possible with no pull to the fenders. 2. As narrow of a wheel up front as possible to avoid rub at full lock (modified for more lock for drifting) http://i.imgur.com/4TtIPtW.jpg |
Me personally I got 18x9.5 +22 up front and sticks out very minimal about 2mm more or less. But for the rear I'd go 18x10.5+15 for a flush look and maybe add a 5 -10mm spacer in the rear

even with a 18x10.5+15 you still need a 5-10mm spacer to be flush? Do you have pics of your setup, like side shots? Thx |
Rightnow I'm running 9.5+22 all around w a 20mm spacer in the rear, but im saving up to get 10.5+ 15 for the rear to try to avoid using a spacer in the back. But if you look at my album the first pic is my most recent setup.

If you want to avoid any poke at all then 18x9.5+30 and 18x10.5+15. My current set up is 18x9.5+35 with a 10mm spacer and 18x10.5+12 with a 5mm spacer. Effective front offset is +25 and rears is +7. Rears are perfect flush, fronts are still a little tucked but does great under hard cornering as I don't rub on the fender or fender liner anymore like I did when I had a 15mm spacer on front. |
Great info guys, keep it coming! thanks.
PICS PICS PICS, if you got em post them. |
18X9.5 +25 on front, 18x10.5 +7 in the rears.

Just a little of poke but just enough to rub on big bumps. This is on a 255/45 tire btw. A 245/45 may of fixed the problem but meh. The rear is still at +7 http://i184.photobucket.com/albums/x...3546098307.jpg http://i184.photobucket.com/albums/x...4485428707.jpg http://i184.photobucket.com/albums/x...4485427727.jpg Hope this helps! |
thats awesome.
what size tires? ride height? camber? |
Sizing is always wheel specific, just because someone else's car can run a size and offset it doesn't mean you can run the exact same setup.
The Varrstoens are notorious for not being brake friendly so you will need to stick with a +22 if you have the Sport brakes and go with the +0 all around If you're honestly drifting on these wheels I would pass, they are not known to hold up to extreme abuse, a set of Enkei RPF1's will be a better setup |
