18" wheels on a classic MY00.
What is the correct tyre size/s to use?
What offset do you recommend? 48-53 is what i have been told is safe but i read that 46 come with the later P1?!
What width do you recommend? 7, 7.5, 8, 8.5, 9
"18x7.5" PWRC1 (P1) wheels are ET53 and ET46, the latter being STi fitment to clear the Brembos.
"
Thanks

215 millimeters tyre is 8.5 inches, would this mean the wheel is 8 inches wide due to the tyre running over the edges or does it mean the wheel will be 8.5 and the tyre is that distance also?
Thanks
Thanks

Right talking from experience here, got the P-wrc1 et46 on my type r, Et53 the standard P1 18" runs on 225/35/18, tried running 225/40/18 on mine but scrubbed badly so went to 215/35/18, but don't know if the 225/35/18 would still scrub on the et46.
