FD 18x10.5 +45

Hey,

i know this has being posted before, and i have looked at the programs that tell wether the wheels will fit, but they both seem to give different answers back.

I have just purchased some SSR 18x10.5 +45 Wheels for the front and rear and i'm wondering how the fitment will be, i will be runing 275/35R18 A6 Hoosier front and rear. i wasnt planning on getting aftermarket fenders but was hoping just to give them a roll and slight pull.

does anyone know if this combination will work?

Thanks,

Adam.

Should work for the rear's the front is possible but it'll take ALOT of work (roll fender as much as possible, good camber, stiff suspension/coil-overs, etc.) . . . the easy fix is some overfenders.

actually i found some posts from REH... if his wheels fit. mine will easy!!!

Enkei NTO3+M, frt 9.5 +27, rr 10.5 +30 X 18. Tires: Advan A048, frt 265/35, rr 285/30. Medium hard compound (treadwear 60). A little fender rolling, but maybe the maximum with stock fenders. I should have gone for 255's in the front since the rears stretched nicely. Car needs a paint job though.
