  • 18" x 10" Wheels?

    I have the opportunity to get a set of custom wheels in either 8" or 10" wide. I was thinking of going 8" on the front and 10" in the rear. However, the offset has got be baffled. I will be able to get them in any offset I would like, so I was wondering what would be the best offset for these widths?

    8" front 10" rear?
    or
    10" front and 10" rear?

    Thanks for any feedback!

    u could actually fit 18x10's in front and rear. he'll have to make sure the specs on backspacing are just right tho.

    To get an extra 1/2 to 3/4 inch, ppl have rolled their fender lips up, or cut them off. Either go 275-35's all the way around, or go 275-35's in front, and 285-35's or 275-40's in the rear, just to make them look bigger.

    Coud ur guy make them any wider than 18x10? maybe, 18x11?
