Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Will OZ 18x8.5 53mm front, and 18x12 68mm offset fit my car? If so what size spacers. Thanks for the help

POST 3Original post

Rears would just fit if you use the right tires and roll your fenders. You may have to heat and bend your plastic wheel liner up front if you don't want full lock rubbing. Once again, depends on what tires you use as well. Spacers with those widths? LOL

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 12188925

By right tires do you mean very short wheel walls or do I have to have stretched tires? I don't want to reduce performance. Thanks

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

If anyone has some insight it would be much appreciated

POST 6Original post

235/40-18 or 225/40-18 to be safe but you'll have a little stretch. 315/30-18 or 305/30-18 to be safe but you'll have a little stretch. Once again, different manufacturers have varying contact patches even though sizing is the same. Tire rack does publish contact patch info as well IIRC. Dunno if your rears will clear your struts if you have stock ones.

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Well Tire rack says the highest recommended width in this rim is 11 inch wide, and they won't offer any info on a "modified car" aka with fenders rolled and so on. I am on stock struts. They are OZ alleggeritas. Maybe a custom shop could tell me?

POST 9Original post

Do you already have the wheels? If so mount one of the rears to get an idea about clearance. If you don't already have the wheels, get 11" instead. 12" is usually reserved for widebody models. Boutique wheel manufacturers do make 12" for NB so they'd be able to tell you with certainty which combos will work. Contact someone like CCW about it.
