Hey XtaZ did you have any clearancing problems? What tire size are you running? I want to run a 315 if I can. But I'll be satisfied with a 295 if it won't fit.

There was a little rubbing on the inner wheel well, nothing a hammer and some undercoat couldn't fix. As for 315's they would fit, but may increase the rubbing issue, but again the hammer should fix that just fine, and a small 1/4" spacer would really help too. BTW my rear wheels have a 58mm offset, so if the wheels you are looking at have a smaller offset the better shape you woul be in.

I kinda remember reading something about traction issues with 18s as opposed to 17s. So you guys w/ 18s agree with that? Or is it just too small to notice? Sorry to steal the thread

what back spacing are you guys using on your 18x9.5 wheels for the back? 6.5 or 7.5

I am eventually going to put 18x9.5's all around with a 1.5" drop and want the wheels to be flush with the fenders, not inside the wheel well. What back spacing should i use?
