Default 18 inches but keeping it simple...

Okay gents, just want to say that I really appreciate all the SC learnings Ive acquired from this forum but I need to get another bit of knowledge from you "wheel and tire" fitting experts. Here's the criteria...

- Dont want to make any body modifications (pulling or rolling fenders)
- Will probably have the Eibach Pro Kit Springs installed for the 1 inch drop
- I want the wheel sizes F/R to be staggered
- May eventually go with a not too radical body kit (taking recommendations here too)

Whats the killer combo 18 wheel size and offset that will work with my SC400... As soon as Longo gets the key out of my ignition, Im ready to go cut the check.

Once again, thanks a bunch for the info!

I don't have all the answers, but I have a 92 sc4 and I put on 18x9.5 in the rear and 18x8.5 in the front. Tires are 265 35 18 in rear and 245 40 18 in the front, but if anyone sits in the back it will rub when going over a bump. I didn't roll my fenders though either. I would like to drop the car 1 inch just to get rid of the gap. But will probably have to roll the fenders.

I think the MRR GT1 would be a good wheel for what you have in mind. Take a look
