those 18x12 look bad ***. I'm hoping to run some 19x13's with a mini tub in about a year.

18x12's w/335's ( i have enought room for MT 345 DR's ) on a stock 10bolt. i forget what my offset is though. but these wheels did require off set lca's and either some serious bfh-ing or a mini tub. i went with the mini tub.

notice how these are not centered




basically it puts the arm a little more towards the center of the car moving it away from the tire for more clearance for wide tires
