Would it be possible to fit a 18x10.5 under a 2004 v? Wondering offsets ect… I was looking for specs on f14s but came up empty handed.

For offset, I'm not sure, but you can get close by using the Creative Steel rear trailing arms ... Then I think you have to start working the fender (I.e. rolling).

Not sure about the front, I think that would be harder.

I guess I should say I am on kwv3s with cs trailing arms I am almost done with a 5 lug swap with v2 front brakes and want to run these.

the F14s are 19x9 +40 front, 19x10 +42 rear.

i plan to do similar specs, but run 20s and lower the car a lot.

with an offset in that area, or around +35mm i would think a 10.5" wheel in the back would work out so long as you'd be willing to roll the fenders (potentially a little pull) and not be afraid of another half degree of negative camber.


for those wheels you picked out to work you're going to 100% need the wide trailing arms. they are higher offset than the stock wheels and the F14 making inward clearance the main concern. you can always move the fenders if you want. you're not moving the frame.
