listy Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 If I have offsets correct in my head right now, then they will stick out a bit. I can't remember the maths off the top of my head to work out how far though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitch79 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Westy's bronze supra has a great offset and look, think the fronts are 38 rears 30 on an 9.5' all round. His already looks close to the arches, so an 18 imo would rub http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?289814-MarkWs-Bronze-Behemoth&highlight=bronze Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattdavies Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 You will be fine with arch work, maybe need to run a 255 tyre max Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a comparison, the 18x8.5 +15 front wheels will stick out 11mm further, the 18x9.5 +18 rears will stick out 8mm further. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mk4Gaz Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 I've got 18 x 8.5 et 15 up front, with a 225/35, and 18 x 9.5 et 15 rear with a 245/35 tyre. Mines lowered on tein coilovers, and I have about a 30mm arch gap on the rear on the hardest setting, and a 20mm arch gap at the front, on setting 12. I rolled the lip of my rear arches the heath robinson way, with a bfh, and they occasionally catch on a real nasty stretch of road. I'm going to get arch enemy round to give them a further tweak when I can Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakeG Posted August 20, 2013 Author Share Posted August 20, 2013 Thanks for the info, what do we reckon then, if it was lowered with my arch's rolled would the stick out look silly or awesome lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
