No spacers... i'll take more pics of the rim face but there is ALOT of clearance with the 18x9.5 +15 fitment. No need for spacers or anything.

Yes they are the Gravity Gullflames that are on the Greddy Evo.. just a lil more aggressive offset and size


The tires are 235/40/18. They still rub on the back a bit. I would suggest getting a 225 tire or maybe a 235/35 if you can find one.

They come in 17" and 18" but the ones with the most concave extreme face is the 18x9.5 +15.. That's the widest and lowest offset they make that I am aware of. The rims on the Greddy Evo are 18x8.5 +25 I believe and they needed spacers.

My setup didn't require spacers and comes nowhere close to the calipers at all. I will take more pics of the face.

I'm curious... what makes a wheel aggressive? Are we talking about the stance of the car with the wheels, or just the wheels?

quoted from Evo-L (famous for the GG Evo with 18x9.5 +20 Work Cr-Kai's in gunmetal)"...what makes a wheel more aggressive than another is mainly the offset. The lower the offset, usually the nicer the wheel will look. With the higher end wheels, sometime they come with a different spoke design or shape with the lower offset. The lower the offset, the further the wheel sticks out and the more things must be done to fit it."
