The 18x10.5 with the 65 mm offset are going to require a spacer. If you can imagine that some guys have problems already with a 58 mm offset in a 10.5" wide wheel. That's an extra 7 mm that has to be cleared.

Here's some clearer shots. Yes, I know it's a 4x4.

It doesn't look like a 4x4 it looks like it may be lowered 1/2" from stock ride height.

It must be sagging then. Suspension is untouched.

Thanks,

My wheels went on yesterday. I got the 10.5 inch wide rims in the rear and they fit with no problem. I have a moser 12 rear so I do not know if it made any differance. The car had to be jacked up by the pumpkin and the rims went right on. I will try to post some pictures tomorrow.

I just got some Crays for my Z06 a couple weeks ago. 17x9 front and 18x10.5 rear. Here are a few pics that a friend took:

Here are some that I took, before I lowered the rear: http://www.picturetrail.com/gallery/...1898&members=1

If I had an Fbod again, I'd definitely get a set of these for it....I like them a lot.

Congrats on your new wheels

i dont think they have a deep enough dish. Granted, the overall design looks good but i just like the deep dish for that extra sexiness

Looks fabulous on the red car...nice wheels. I like the Chrome or VERY highly polished outer lip.

Those are the 10.5" wide rims in the back with 275 series tire on it. It just fits in the wheel well and if I went with a wider tire I would have had to pound on the inner wheel well to make them fit.

Could you please take some close up pictures of the rear wheels from several angles showing the fender well in the photo. I want to see what the wheel looks like close up. Thanks bro

Dude, those 10.5s look sweet. Kinda makes me wish I'd gone wider in the rear.
