Here is one of my favorites. It looks mean as hell!!!
As nice as this looks, I cant be sure about the offset but Ill try to find out. But I do know this info for sure, 18x9 wearing 275/40 Dunlop SP Sport 9000 & 18x10 wearing 285/50 Dunlop SP Sport 9000 with no rubbing issues.

This is just the most amazing thing I have seen and wish to go with this wheel and tire combo. But where do I start? I have a stock 05 V6, can i just buy the staggered 18" wheels of my choice and then 275/40-285/50 tires, then have them mounted and call it a day?? Anything else I am missing? Any advice?
And would this set up be alright for daily driving?
Thank you thank you.

I'd do 285/45-18's instead, if they make such a size. I'm surprised they make a 285/50-18.

I'm not sure what kind of problems you might run into, but that is one freaking tall rear tire, 29.2 inches. As cool as it looks filling the entire wheel well, I can't imagine it handles worth a pooh. It will feel like your front is lowered, but your rear is not and that's not a good feeling ime.

Have another question tho. This guy:

What is the deal with his back wheels? Spacers perhaps? Or is that achieved using really wide wheels? I just DO NOT want that look. Thats just aweful. Ha.

Here is a pic of my '06..I am also a new member.
I have 99-04 SVE Drift 18x9 +24mm offset. 275/40/18 Nittos all the way around. Will post more pics tomorrow and help keep the thread alive. I just put the wheels/tires on today.

Many many thanks for posting these pictures and advice/ stats! I have wondered if the 99-04 wheels would fit, and you all have proven that they do! My interest has been in finding the Torq Thrust wheels that would fit to give a retro look, and now my search can be broadened into the 99-04 years!

Nice looking cars!! I bought a set of GT40 Reps that are 18x9 and 18x10 both with a 24mm Offsets. Mine stick out way more than these on these photos ? What would be the difference? I know the tires are too small and i need to lower but dont want to buy tires if these are not going to work. Thanks for any input
