Default 18x9 or 18x10 all around?

So I'm looking into buying some wheels and was wondering which wheel fiitment would be better. Or should I do 18x9 front and 18x10 rear.

imo... looks for 19 and performance for 18 cuz more choices for R rated tires... another factor is if you live by roads that are crap ex: lots of pot hole, and stupid manhole cover i would definitely suggest 18....

I am lowered. About an inch pass wheel gap. And what I'm trying to figure out is will 18 x 9 +30 fit. And if I should do 18 x 9 all around or 18x9 F and 18x10 R. I'm new to all these wheel fiitment stuffs.

Im not sure about offsets and such. But there is a theead about wheel fitment. That's where I would ask. Thise folks know their stuff. But I am pretty sure that you need to keep your wheels staggered to maintain proper handling characteristics.

Wider wheels in the rear. This is the way that the car comes frim the factory. There is a post on the site showing aftermarket 18" wheels on the ISX50 Some will say 18" wheels look to small but I feel that it depends on the style of the wheel. ( no lips)

Get 19's and stagger your wheels because you're RWD.
