18x11 with 42 mm offset WILL NOT fit a C2 Turbo thats for sure and please don't ask me how i know.The widest you can go on the rear would be 18x10.5 with 58/60 mm offset and remember the final fitment will depend on the tire you choose

The offsets are correct, but the front maybe too wide if you have hard cornering and track use in mind. I have heard conflicting reports about 8.5" fronts and I presume that has something to do with tire selection.

I wouldn't give up yet - I was hoping someone like Colin or Jupe would chime in. I thought I remember one of them saying they were running 9" up frpnt. Do a search of this forum using "wheels" or "tires" as keywords

That front offset is critical. If the offset is too low, a spacer won't help. PM Jupe and see if he remembers the front offset. 65mm seems too large, but I may be wrong.

Front: 18 x 8.5 56mm
Rear: 18 x 10 65mm
Requires 1/2" spacers front & rear (mine are FVD)

for reference im running a
18x8.5 +50 Front 245.40.18 Toyo RA1
18x10.5 +40 Rear 275.35.18 toyo RA1
The rears would have rubbed but i massaged the inner fender lip and the fronts rub the plastic lining around hard corners... but that doesnt mother me. Ill be removing the fender lining soon, but no rush really.
