18" TE37/replica wheel fitment

Morning guys,

 

I'm after some advice regarding wheel fitment- what can I get away with without rolling my arches? I'm not after a super aggressive stance, I just want the wheels to fit more flush with the front and rear wings.

 

I currently have Enkei PF01 9J rear 8J front on 255/35/18 and 225/40/18 respectively, I've lost a note of the offsets (in the ET40-45 range I think) but as you can see they're quite buried in the arches.

 

In particular, if anyone has any form of Volks TE37 and equivalent replicas such as the Rota Grids, Bola B1 or any others I'd really appreciate what works for you, including tyre dimensions. I have the UK spec brakes so I'll be fairly limited in what will fit.

 

Inevitably, if I do need my arches rolling, does it affect any paint work or cause any non-viewable damage?

 

:D

Buddy there are loads of threads on this if you search. You need to get the exact wheel offset really.

 

Rolling arches should not damage any paint if done correctly. Dont forget the main work is done on the inside of the arch.
