Looking at getting some fn01r-c wheels in 18x9.5 with a +35 offset with 245/40/18 tires. Will these fit, I searched and didn't find much just someone running 18x9.5 with a +22 offset and 225 tires. Saw some poeple are running the same wheel with 17x9 +35 fitment and no issues.

Will i be ok with +35 or would I need +30 to run these??
 
Your not going to clearance the rear on a fwd car. Those people running 17x9 run real close to rubbing on the inside. With that offset, those rims will stick out close to an inch.
 
well I saw Scrymerr's pictures and hes running the 17x9 35+ wheel with 255/45 which is 10" wide and 26.1" diameter

For 18x9.5" The 245 tire is 9.6" wide and 25.7" diameter

I think this could be close any thoughts?

There is someone on Talk running 18x9.5 +35 with 255/35/18. His username is EclipZ.

nice wonder if I can get my brembos under these. I would have never thought 255 was even possible.

does anyone know how to calculate the scrub from this wheel on our car?

Will I have any problems putting 245 wide on a 9.5" wide wheel...I don't really like the way stretched tires look but its all I got right now and don't want to buy another set of tires


Hopefully it will have this stance, love the way the spokes curve in toward the hub

I dunno about that pic. That rim should def stick out. BTW, what the hell do you need a 9.5 inch rim for. You have a 16g? LOL
