alright guys, so basically I’m running a 255x18 in front and a 275x18 in back. I don’t know what the exact offsets are because the RTR wheels were on it when I bought the car a year ago.

I’m looking to go upgrade to the Shelby wheels, for obvious reasons. I got Eibach lowering springs on it and for 18’s there literally no gap so I couldn’t go 20’s. I could roll into 19’s probably at 275x19x9.5 and 305x19x11.5.

Anyone have trouble running this?

Or anyone have recommendations? Love the deep offset on the rear, makes the car really standout. Want to replicate that look.

Are you looking for these supersnake wheels? btw the wheel gap can stay the same or close with a 19 or 20. its all about the tire height not the wheel size.

18,19,20 - wheels size doesn't matter much, its the tire diameter. Typically on an 18" wheel you're going to mount an tire with a larger sidewall, versus a 20" tire with a short sidewall. All of them will keep the tire diameter about the same, all you're doing is changing how much of that radius is tire sidewall, and how much of it is wheel.

Go look at the sidewalls on your current tire and get the middle number 255/??R18
