Ive read most of the thread jst wondering if you guys seen the new rim from xxr (526)
im looking at 18x10.5 +20 offset all around
I know for sure i will have to roll the fenders but will i need to flare them by maybe a half inch or an inch?

"Just as a reference, SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) recommends a minimum thread engagement equal to the diameter of the wheel stud.
For example, a wheel stud with a 12x1.5 thread specification (i.e. 12mm in diameter with 1.5 thread pitch) would require a minimum of 12mm of thread engagement or eight (8) full turns (i.e. 12mm divided by 1.5 thread pitch = 8 turns)."
And from personal experience I tried to put a 5mm spacer on my sc300 with stock studs and my lug nuts only got like 4-5 full turns.

ok after today. i decided i really wanna get the TSW Willows.
im going with 18x9.5 for the REAR, and 18x8 for the FRONT.
but the offset is my main question. the offset choices are +20 and +40
i saw someone with a Lexus IS-F on here with the same wheels. but he or she didnt say what their offsets were.
i wasnt crazy about the whole Staggard look, but i think it will be safer to go with.

roll all around. slight pull in rear.
(f) 17x9.5 +18 215/40
(r) 17x10 +12 245/45 (+18 w/o 5mm spacers)
ruined my front tires. will be going with 215/45 this time around. With the stretch the 215/40 became too low-profile.
