I bought a set of equips on a auction site which I thought where 18x8 +5 18x9 +9 turns out that they miss listed the item and are really 18x9.5+28 18x10.5+28 i want to know if i could fit them with a roll maybe a slight pull and not make them look like there poking out half way or should just get my money back.

I'm a wheels sizing fitting noob just so you know


Thanks pic would be sweet

the rear its ok, the front u gonna have to do some rolling . but im not sure how do u like the wheels to look in your car . lots of guys like the sticking out insane. i like some but no crazy . i think +28 rear its gonna look good cause urs are 10.5.
BTW how much u paid?

With those offsets they should fit fine. Just roll your fenders. Offsets are pretty conservative so if you have a kit it may still look a lil sunken in.

You're gonna need something like a 15mm spacer to clear coils by a comfortable amount in the front... you should get extended studs and ichiba 15mm spacers front and rear. You should just get 20mm spacers if you wanna be in the ball park of your intended offsets.

9.5 inch wide wheels usually need a clearance of like +15 mm I believe for the front of S13.

+15 is the bare minimum you can run, and thats with stretched tires. i have this offset up front and have a credit card thickness worth of clearance.

I looked over the wheel fitments tread again and i got a better idea of how it might look my main concern was them poken out to much but it doesn't look like it will be that bad i think i might just go for it

You'll have to run spacers which is no big deal. Even if the offsets could be lower, 18x9.5 and 18x10.5 are still better sizes than 18x8 and 18x9.
