Will these wheels fit?-katana-rc10-gloss-black-with-red-stripe.jpg

I'm looking for a decent 18" wheel that will fit the ISF for my winter tires. I came across these Katana RC10's that are reasonably priced and look half decent. Can you wheel experts tell me if these will fit?

18x8
40 offset
5x114.3
73.1 CB

Thanks!

I have 18x9.5 +40 on stock suspension and I have no issues with rubbing, etc.
The big question would probably be brake caliper clearance.
You should check out the aftermarket wheel thread, and search in there. I'm sure other's have asked the same question.

With 18's on an Isf you really have to test fit to see if it will clear the front calipers.

that's what I was afraid of. I'm going to have to see if they will give me a refund if they don't fit.

in addition to offset, what's the disk spec on the rims? Most vendors won't give you a refund once you mount wheels on the car.

That's a new one to me. Do you know what the minimum disk spec should be?

Ask 'em first. Just about any retailer says no refund once you mount the tires on the wheels.

Your "ideal offset" is +45 mm f & +55 mm r (i.e. stock offset).

yeah, I guess I should have put more detail into my reply. But factor in a restocking fee and shipping back for a mistake on the customer's behalf on a wheel that cost about $100 each...go ahead and return it and take that loss for not doin proper homework.
