You will get more responses by searching in the Fitment sticky.

Anyway, I believe you may need to roll/cut the rears and possibly just roll the fronts.

i think if u put a good stretch on the tires and a good roll and pull u could do it.

but def take the time to check the the fitment sticky. theres a lot to look at but its worth it

Those will definitely NOT fit under the stock fender. You will need at least a small pull all around.

Well, what color is your car? Maybe if it's black and you're going for the stealth look...

But fitment shouldn't be to far off from this, right guys?


18x9.5+16 225/40
18x10.5+16 245/40

The wheels you're looking at have a higher offset by 2mm compared to these. So, they shouldn't stick out any further than this pic...

Those wheels are beyond gangster. Though not as flush in the front as I'd expect them to be for that INGS kit on that Z..

In regards to the fitment, that's going to be SUPER aggressive for the SC. IMO Pulling and stretching the OEM front fender isn't going to cut it at all.

Vertex Ridge, front and rear possibly?

wow. I believe it will work. You would definitely have to shave the fenders, and a slight pull.

I know they'll fit on my car for sure. Those are some nice wheels
