These are 18x9.5 +38 with 275/35/18 tires. Be warned though that they are not direct bolt on, I had to do a lot of work to make things fit. The fenders are rolled, and I'm using stiffer bushings to reduce deflections.

In the pics above, I'm also using 25mm spacers in the front (needed to clear the brembos), which was great for inducing oversteer (wider front track) but caused some rubbing on the fender lining at full steering deflection. I have since reduced that to 15 mm together with upgraded brake calipers to clear the spokes, very happy with the setup now.

Mine are 18x8.5 with a +30 offset.

I'm using a 245/40/18 Falken Azenis RT-615 tire which comes really close to rubbing on the rear fender lip, but doesn't rub at all (within 2-3 mm though). Most people use a 234/40/18 tire on this size wheel though just to be safe.

Not to hi-jack your thread, but since all the owners are in here - have any of you guys found center caps that fit on these?

It's white, but you get the idea. Bronze 17x8.
