Lower offset needed? I hate looking for wheels for this car. Haha it's like everyone runs the same setups.

I think I'm going with 18x9 +35. It isn't a wheel with a lip so I won't have to worry about that with the +35 offset. And that way I can really dial it in with a spacer.

lower offset helps, the shape of the pokes really matters when it comes to the brembo clearance.

wheels with alot convex will clear but they wont really be wide, Like with some enkei wheels.

the rpf1s 18x8 +35 clear, but 18x9 +35 dont, the 9s make the spokes loose their curve haha

That site on Ebay has tons of great looking wheels all under $500 for the set plus $100 shipping. But no brand name? Are they going to crack in half on new england pot holes? I found a set of 5x110 Varrosten look alikes for $600

I don't drive very hard and my NJ roads aren't that bad. If you guys say they'll fit I'll buy them.

if you put a 5mm spacer on the front it will likely fit over brembos, if not you may need extended studs and a bigger spacer. with an offset like that you have room to work with.

I am surprised that nobody on here has saved up enough pennies for a set of Adv.1 ADV10's that someone made into 5x110 for their Saab.
