Classic wheel fitments 18x8.75J
 
hi guys.


im looking for some advice on fitment of wheels im looking at and in need of some great info on offsets and before my head pops.


I was originally gonna go for the abw arch look but have decided not to go for this look any longer.
Iv seen a set of xxr 527 and I am very tempted to purchase these but the smallest iv seen in 18's are 5x100 18x8.75J with an ET35.


What info im after is to see if I can fit these to my 99-00 uk2000 with minimal arch work like arch rolling, suitable tyre sizes, camber adjustment bolts and not wanting them to catch the struts. Also the car is lowered slightly on tein springs.


Any help is gratefully appreciated.


Many thanks, lee

No chance without abw arches, its as simple as that

No worries, I had 8x17 ET35 wheels on my previous car arches were rolled and pulled, coilovers and camber bolts still could not get the car to drive perfectly.

Iv decided to go for a set of 18x7.5j now mate as my friend lent me a set of 18x8j to test and the fronts stuck out past the arch so I think the 7.5j will do just nicely instead Thanks again for the info bud.

Only advice I can give you is that you will need 215/35/18 tyres I believe :lol1:
