yep the 18x8s will clear bud without spacers , 18x8.5 grids would filll out the arches more imo and also would clear fine 
the gtrs only go up to 18x8 in 5x100 pcd which is abit rubbish as they are a nice wheel
have you had a look at the gforces ? they are a nice wheel also

Is arch rolling pricey? is the rears harder to do on 05 wide arch model?
Still fancy Grid Drift's in 9.5" just not on a 225, prefer 235-245 at least.

If fitted with 235's would this protect the alloy a little more, and not look so stretched?
I have rear camber bolts, BC's, so prob just need arch rolling all round, maybe ride height adjusted?
Is this something that can be booked in all in one go with you, so I drive home new wheels and fully set-up?

[QUOTE=M444GY;10962850]excellent, the 235s would give a bit more protection and wouldnt be as stretched .

Sounds perfect, as I'd be coming from Essex its 2 1/2hrs away, so getting it all done in one go is what I'm after.
I understand that 265's are the correct size for a 9.5" wheel, can't go to that, I just want to avoid the stretched look, what about 245's?, can the arches be pulled that much or would it look dumb and best stick to 235's?
Can you adjust the ride height at your place if needed?

235s would be the most mate tbh even with the arches done , it will still be stretched but it has to be to get them to fit in bud , we can adjust height here if needed
let me know when you are ready

That's more what I like.....but can I get 245's under my archs after they been rolled and ride height adjusted? And the steering still functions on full lock.
What's the Correct off-set for me, never understood it.

Hi there
Yes you can get 245/40 under yours arches without the problem(wagon have rear much narrow than saloon/sedan),just would recommend add camber bolts at front and rear,I'm sure Mags will help you and suggest you what will be best
Yes steering is still OK,like on full lock etc. We are running 9.5JX18 ET38,second set is 255/40 ZR17 with 9JX17" ET20

Well would want the 9.5's. do you do these in 19"?
Not too sure on pcd.. It's a 2004/54 widetrack blobeye. What colours do you do this in?
I believe 235's can be used on this.. Could you give me a price for -
Rota Grid Drift 18x9.5 (and, if you do them) 19x9.5/8.5
Rolled arches
I've got prodrive lowered suspension, do you think this would be an issue? Currently got Prodrive GC-05F 19" wheels atm. Thinking of getting camber bolts, I want to add negative camber on the rears, maybe 1 or 2• Degrees?
