Default FS: 18" Fikse FM5's

In what has gone from bad to worse, The ebay buyer recieved the wheels and chargedback the payment. You see he found that after mounting tires on the wheels, he noticed the wheels were bent and curbed and would not hold air. He recieved them and somehow failed to notice all this damage untill he mounted tires on them. Strange as it seems, never noticed they were bent and curbed. So he got a pretty good deal, Fikse wheels for free. I am so nice that, not only did I send him my wheels, but I paid him to accept them from me.
Honor is something very few people know or even care too.

Are these early offset? Guessing as your sig shows an 86 951.

Thanks

Shows 51et in the ebay add, so they would be late offset.

they should fit fine, you might have to use a spacer to get the look just right.

Do you know if these will fit a 285/30 18 for the rears? Might need 10.5-11, but I am not sure.

Looks like 9.0 - 10.5 is the spec.

You don't want to trade for a set of OEM MY02's, do you?

If these fit nicely on an '89 without spacers, I will take them. Been a late night for me, on business trip to Ontario. PM me, had a few too many to look anything up right now. I will check first thing tomorrow when I come too, . Thanks!

Doc:

I think you sent me the specs a while back, will these fit on a '89 without spacers or rolling the fenders? Thanks in advance.

No problem. I'm running 295/30 on my 10" FM5s, but they are 56mm offset.

Are they on an '89?

From what I just researched from a previous post Doc made:

You need the narrow body fitment ET65 wheels to fit...

I am assuming these will not fit my car. 65-51 is 14mm or slightly over a 1/2", looks like a rubbing issue. Now I have to assume that I need ET65 for both front and rear, but not positive on that. Hopefully, Doc can clear that up for me. Everytime I find one that I like, it never seems to fit.
