Anyone ever ran an 18X9.5 +35 up front? I know it would be flush in the rear but it would probably poke in the front without rolling fenders huh?

where you flush on the front and back.. or only on the front??

my only concern is running a thick tire.. if i cant run a decent tire then im fked.. i can stretch but im not a fan on stretching.. and i wana slam the car with these wheels... its a +32 all the way around

you can't run that wheel up front without it sticking out and you would have to pull the fender 12 mm for it to sit even remotely right. for what he's asking for just rims you could buy my rims and tires that FIT the tc

Well, I'm looking at a set of RS's. :D Polished lips, painted centers. Yes, I was planning on having the old holes filled.

Has RC's on a tC done yet? Are there any pictures of these on a tC? None of this is set in stone yet. I need to get rid of the SSR's first. And money needs worked out. But I am really hoping to do this. I f$%king love these wheels.

I'm not doing the filling myself and the guys that are doing it (RB Motorsports) sounded pretty confident about their work.

And yea, you know these wheels, they do have caps. But I think they planning on filling the old holes anyways.

They have an eBay promotion and I could have gotten those for about 1600. I'd like to buy yours, but for 2450 I could just get the VSXX's I want. Then again yours come with tires...

i cant.. the offset i think will be to high at +32 and i definitely DO NOT wana scratch the lip on the rim im looking at... i dont like the poked out look.. i like being tucked so i never have to worry about clearances... oh well... the guy told me 850 shipped for the rims im looking at w/ tires but with the redril im looking at 1k easy...not to mention the missing center cap which is gonna be a pita to find or redo... if it was a +35 i would do it.. but +32.. on chunky tires.. i cant..

8 et+ 32 would be no problem. even with a 225 you'll be fine. its not like you're incredibly low or anything
