i've said it before and i'll say it again, the IDEAL fitment for these cars is 18x9.5 +38. (figure it out from there) how the hell are you guys rubbing? are you not rolled/pulled in the rear? i had zero wheel gap all around AND 275's and i NEVER rubbed. EVER. |

These wheels also seem similar to work emotion ultimates.... Also, on the rubbing topic, I run 18x 9.5 38 works with mich 265 35 PSS. Car has 1 finger gap all around and about 2 degrees camber (stock camber in rear) Rears rolled but not pulled. It rubs on the rear bumper cover but that's it. Other than that the rears clear perfectly....

I'm running 18x9.5 et38 with a 255/35 and have no rub anywhere. -2 camber all around and rear fenders are rolled flat. About 1.5 finger gap all around. Not sure how you guys are rubbing on those specs. I ran 265's on et40's as well and no rub after my alignment and roll.

I'll let you know how 18x10 +38 RPF1s on 265/35 Z2s do when I put them on in April. Planning to have around -5 rear camber. I hope it is not weird to stare at the aluminum and rubber that will be sitting in my garage all winter...

you're going to need toe arms in the rear to run that much safely.

I run -2.3 in the rear and I still rub on some of the deeper dips at higher speed. 1 finger gap. Rears are rolled. There are times I wish I went with a stiffer coil like the FEAL, I like the way my KWs ride, but they are soft in the rear. I'd like to run a slightly more aggressive setup, closer to +30, but that's probably not going to happen, not in the rear at least.

Since we seem to be discussing wheels numbers. I'm trying to figure out what offset will give me a wheel that looks almost flat like this one. I want 18x9.5's all around but the offset is throwing me for a loop. I don't really like the look of the concave spokes, something slightly concave or flat would be ideal. What the heck offset do I go that will clear my brembos and give me the nice near flat spoke?

I have cusco camber and toe arms ready to go. Feal 441s are 1st choice for coils followed by v3s. Plenty more to be added to inventory before long too. Im in winter mode on bilsteins/rce and Hakka R2's on stock sti wheels until then.

What's the reputation of fifteen52's cast wheels? I'm looking for a set of 17x9's, and I really like how they look.

I like how 18's look, but ****ty roads call for thicker sidewalls, wouldn't you agree? Not to mention I have ugly sliding calipers, larger wheels just show how tiny my calipers/rotors are
