Default Rota grids 18x9.5 on standard blobeye suspension?

As above would I need coilovers and arch work or could I get away with it?

Would look pretty stupid without lowering, as with any 18s. Needs to be lowered a notch to make it look nice

Could I get springs instead of coilovers with these particular wheels?

Depends on how low you went with the springs. I would say you would need at least camber bolts and also the rear arches rolled.

Well I don't want to slam it, its needs to be pratical as ill use it everyday. No one ever goes in the back lol. Yes I was thinking of getting the rears rolled.

Not to sound thick but what are camber bolts?

They are literally just bolts with a tear shaped part on it that allows for more adjustment in camber than standard.

I would say your gunna need coilys on a 9.5j rim mate

I believe people run these without arch mods
