Could Someone PLease Help/Advise On Best Fitment for 18'' Wheels for my Car ??

If you want the car to remain user friendly I would stick with standard or standardish offsets... If you go down the road of having to add camber, or squeeze tyres onto rims, having coilovers Rock hard etc etc you will make a pig of the car to drive and handle..

and that's not to mention having to possibly mess with your rear arches which I doubt you want to do..

If it's any help I think the RB320 wheel is 18x8 50offset

Running 8x18s on my car with 235 40 rubber on tein s tech springs . No issues even with 4 adults in the car . Would reckon a 245 tyre would be the widest I could go before the rear arches would be rubbing .

Is there anywhere i could see a picture of your car with the tein s tech and 18 inch wheels fitted ? , I would like to see how mine will sit with the springs and 18s as deciding on the width and offset of the wheels is puzzling me . :wall:

Plenty of pictures in the blog section of the forum .

also keep in mind , brembo clearance , as not all wheels (even 9.5 wide rota grids) will clear calipers without spacers . jus something to consider

i have those enkei's in 17's and they clear the brembos ok
 
Thanks for all the help , Think im gonna go with a 18x8 , +40 or +45 depending on the exact fitments they currently have available in the gold colour that i want :thumbsup:
 
Going down to 40 offset is moving the rim out 10mm compared to the RB320 Measurements I mentioned above, could that 10mm cause any arch rubbing problems with standard suspension?
 
+46 were nice fit on my last wheels . Filled out the arch just nice . Have them in the garage if you want to try one on to get an idea of what they sit like
