Hi so I need to commit on these wheels yeah or nay. And its from one of the good guys here locally. I thought I posted this before but cant seem to find the post. So here is all the info that I have my question is will it work?

Picks of the wheels that I got for my vehicle. 8(52)x18 and 10(65)x18 from 2001 c2 with a 20mm h&r spacers. tires that are on them are 225/40/18 and 285/30/18. Been doing a lot research but can not seem to be 100% sure if it will work.
Thanks in advance.







This is the look I like. Sport Design Wheel.

If he is local, throw them on the car to see for yourself. The fronts are not an issue. The rear is the big if. Your car will need some negative camber to fit that 45et and tire size, but it seems doable. Others have done it with a 265/35. Worst case scenario you will need to step down to a 265.

Hi,
I'm running similar size MY02's 8x18 ET50 Front & 10x18 ET65. Tires are 225/40/18 MPSC front (no spacer) and 275/35/18 MPSC rear + 21mm spacer.

I also believe you will have to step down the 285's in the rear.

Search Bill Verburg here or Pelican, he's very knowledgeable. Good Luck!
