  • Got a couple ?s on some wide wheels

    I found some C5 rims at wheelreplicas.com
    18x9.5 up front and 18x10.5 in the back.
    my questions are will a 10.5" wide wheel fit in the fender well?
    Also will i have any clearance issues when turning with a 9.5" wheel? also would that wide of a rim even look right up front? some pics would really help
    thanks alot

      Thats the exact size I use and as long as your backspacing is right it won't have a problem.

        are the rears flush w/ the fender well or do the stick out a little

          I have 18 x 10.5 all around. They fit without a problem and dont rub at all. They also look fine and dont stick out. You shouldn't have any problems with yours

            what would look better, 17s all the way around, 18s all the way around, or 17s up front and 18s in the rear???

              i got 18s all around and i think it still looks kinda small!! LOL so def get 18s but nothing bigger, maybe just bigger tires... i have 265/35/18s... MAYBE 40s? but not sure about the front... im getting my car lowered, that shoulod fix the wheel gap... but i would recommend 18s, love mine.

                If they are like mine and have a 61mm backspacing you may have some clearance issues to hammer out that take like 30 minutes but thats it..
