Those are what I run 18x10 +12p 18x12 +0p these photos there are no spacers if you wanted to run a full size tyre on the rear I would get the 18x12 +17p that they offer as my rears stick 12+ mm out of the widebody guards on the front could probly do with a 15mm spacer to have a more aggressive fitnent like the rear
As for lowering the teins in mine are 5mm off the lowest setting fine for street but I have a track day coming up which I will raise it for
To be honest... hadn't even gave it much thought (if any) until the widebody stuff was already on the way. Would be done already if not for buying a house a little over a year ago.rodel;1864827 said:
Coilovers, best way to go if you can afford it. TH Motorsports is having a group buy on a nice set here:travweek;1864854 said:

Seems like you found the thread though. Spread the word!
It is a weight thing for me. I'd like to keep my wheels under 20 lbs each...joel903;1864862 said:
Thinking about buying a MKIII and turning it into a track car, but would need 295-315 tires for it's weight.
How do the rears attach? I saw that you had them riveted but that it wasn't suggested. Does the manufacturer just recommend using a product like a 3m seam sealer?
Thanks!

I've seen it riveted, as well as molded into the body. Depending on your rear ride height desired, you may need to cut the old fender to make room for the tire, but no big deal for a track car.scottryana;1871629 said:
FYI, if you're clever enough, it isn't too hard to fit a 295 in the rear. I've even seen 315's, but the tend to stick out just a bit...
Ok great thanks guys! I had seen 315's, I was thinking an 18x11. I found a pretty tired '88, that I could strip that the guy wants $1,500 for. I guess I will just need to decide if this is the car, I want to go with and actually get it in the garage and take some measurements.
Thanks,

got a question for everyone that has this kit on thinking bout gettin 18x10 rims for the front but what offset n tires size would u guys pick...+12 or +20? and suggested tire size thanks
I have 18x10+12 265/35/18 on the front of mine it's very low doesn't rub the guard but rubs on the inner guards as I said my ride Hight is quite low.
I personally would like a 0 offset On the front for a flush look with still running a full sized tyre

I was planning on running a 17x10.5 (11" originally I seem to remember...), and came up with an ideal offset being around +25 on the fronts. Then again, I like my wheels tucked in enough. I do NOT want to be rubbing on my fenders, all things considered. I don't think CF fenders and tires at speed meeting would be a good idea.
well seen as you are buying the same wheels as me and we have the same kit this IS how it will look
18x10 +12 265/35/18 - could easily run 275 if you wanted
18x12 +0 295/35/18
side shot of both
with the fronts anything more than the +12 offset you will regret as for the rears with the 0 offset 12's the biggest tyre you can run is a 295 so I really wish I got the +17 offset so I can run a 315 because were im from it is illegal to stretch tyres so I have to use different wheels for 6 monthly vehicle checks
I hope this helps also the higher the car/ less camber you run the wheels will stick out farther at the top I have -2g camber on the rears at -.05 camber and about 1" higher it looked quite mexican
