Should fit. Tho might be a little sunk. Can always add a 5mm spacer to space it out.

The setup above with some pulled fenders and 275's and spacer up front would look awesome.

OK guys. I have a question. I finally found pictures of the rims I want on a MK3. I forget who is the owner of this car, but I know he posted in this thread. Basically I want Work Emotion XD-9s in 18x10 front and rear. The only thing is they only come in +38 and +18. This guy is running +38 front and +18 rear, my question is, can I run +38 front AND rear? It seems with the +18 in the rear, he is using very stretched tires, and I don't want to do that. I want to run fat tires in the back, so I figured +38 front and rear will allow me to run that fat tire in the back. Do you guys think this setup will clear a shock/spring setup with rolled fenders? I want to avoid pulling. Here are pics of the other guys setup with +38 front and +18 rear:

oh yeah, the suspension will be tokico illumina 2s with RS R springs.

Wouldn't it be practically the same, just on the rear 20mm more towards the car?

Yes it would. Too high of a offset with a 10in wheel will rub on the shock tho.

I have 18x10+25 with a 275 and I have atleast a inch and a half maybe 2in but I have coilovers and there slightly skinnier than spring/shock iirc.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I figured it would look good, it'd be a square setup just like stock. Hopefully I can report back in a couple months with the finished product. Hopefully.

Hi, i bought 4 XXR 962 18x9.5 +35 on all 4 corner.
I want to know if i can fit a 245 in the front. I will not roll my fender.
Rear is not a problem, i know i can fit a 255 or 265 witthout problem.

Nah, i get refund because of the too long delay. So i decide to browse the web and i find the varrstoen wheel. + I think the varrstoen fit better my car than the 962, more class...
+ they are 5 bolt hole, not universel, etc!!

Ok guys i have read most of the thread and the explanation of offset plus width of wheel is confusing my little brain. so here it goes i found a set of front 17x9 with a +25 offset and a set of rear 17x10.5 with a +20 offset, i am currently running mk4 wheels with 235 45 on the front and 255 40 on the rear, i can see about 8 to 10 mm of space from the outer face of the wheels to my fenders and the car is lowered 1.5 front .5 rear, what do you think too wide or gonna be close?

The wheels are on an mk4... Ssr sp1. Two inch lip in front and 4 in rear.. the lips are not perfect so I was thinking I could get them relipped for better offset and size.... Any input is appreciated :)
