Default 18 inch on narrow 84

does anyone know if 18x10 with 265 tires will fit under an 84 coupe. The offset on the wheels are 54. Will they go under there or am I wasting my time. If they don't does anyone want rh 18s for 1k. Near perfect shape with good tires. maybe 80% tread left.

You will need some big spacers, which might not fly well with the tech guys at some DE's or autocrosses.

I'm pretty sure it'll fit, but with lots of spacer.

does anyone know the stock offset for an 84 or how can I figure out what size spacer I need to run a 54 offset. Who has big spacers that are "safe"?

Don't know the offset answer, but H & R sells some really good stuff.

I think the stock offset is 15. If you want to know how to measure the wheels check out CCW website they have a good tech article on it http://www.ccwheel.com/files/technical.php
