They're already wrapped in 285/30-18 V710s and waiting to be used. After the trans gets back from Shep, I'll get the suspension installed and tuned with the rims/tires installed. Already got all the ARP wheel studs, front spacers, and a fender roller (not mine, just borrowing from a shop), so I'm ready to roll.

Do you think the wheels would look just the same if I went with the 18x8.5 with 245/40/18 tire? I really really like these wheels but 18x9.5 seems to be more then I'm willing to deal with especially considering I dont autoX or anything.

I'm loving M3this's car, but am wondering if my wicked white will look simillar with the NT03+M thats not as wide.

I think that wheel in 8.5" width have the spokes sitting proud, like the pic suggests. You loose the concave look that seems to make these wheels look so good.

So the best setup for these wheels is +27 in front and +40 in rear?

Not if you get the correct version of that wheel. Mine are 17x9.5 38mm offset and need no spacers. Tires are 275/40/17 Kumho MX. They of course need the rear fenders rolled.

My tires don’t rub after I set the front factory camber adjustment to minimum position. The rears are very close but don’t rub. Maybe the 275’s you used were abnormally wide or my MX’s are narrow for their size.

You may not need to run spacers up front, but it would be advantageous to do so from a track width standpoint. And if you are going to run spacers anyway, why not get a version of the wheel with the concave face for the aesthetics?

would +40 be less concave compared to +27?

would it still look like this +27?

thanks

Two down sides to that set up:

1) front track width isnt widened
2) ugly wheel faces (personal opinon)
