Don't know if I am a bit late with a response. Here is my car with CCW Classics, 18X10.5 up front and 18X11 in the rear.





I need to get my front fenders fixed, dont ask me how it happened, still hurts

13bhavoc, what size tires are you using on the front and rear. Any complaints on the way they perform? I'm not sure how wide I can go without having to suffer.

You can see the fairly massive flairs in front and back. 18x10 with the right offset is about the biggest you can hope for without flares. I'm pretty sure it would still require fender rolling and after market suspension and rear links. But I must agree the CW classics are just too hot on a FD. I might have to get a set. I keep bouncing back and forth between the RPF1's and the Classics.

Sorry for the late reply since I am currently moving back from Japan. The car is running a ShineAutoProject Burnout widebody, with custom sheetmetal rear flares. Tire sizes are 275/35 up front and 315/30 in the back I belive. The front fiberglass fenders still need to be trimmed a bit more, that is why I have to repair them. All I did was give CCW a call, and gave them the KS Auto wheels specs, and told them to make them wider inboard, keeping the same offset as the smaller tracked wheels from them original KS car. Theres a few people on this board that run the classics with stock fenders (With rolling), I belive the biggest I have seen in the rear stock is a 10.
