Work Emotion Cr Kai 18x9.5 +20 Just Installed!!
Well, I finally got my wheels installed! They are 18x9.5" +20 Cr Kai's with 255/35/18 tires. I am still on stock suspension, but plan on ordering Espelir GT springs on Tuesday, and will also be renting the fender rolling tool next weekend. Once that is done, future exterior mods are a JDM rear bumper, Evodave amber sidemarkers, JDM MR headlights, and either a CF lip and ducts, or just an Evo 9 front bumper with SE lip.
As of now, I rubbed once with my wife and son in the car going down a crowned country road while heading to my dad's place. It was minor and on the inside edge of the fender lip. Otherwise, NO rubbing in the front with the wheel turned all the way to the steering stops!! I also took pics from above of the concave-ness for comparison to the 18x8.5" +20's in RavSpec's thread. And lastly, a pic of the front caliper clearance which is more than sufficient. Enjoy!
Feedback/criticism welcome......but yes, I know it needs dropped and that will be done next weekend!!

Ya, I did a lot of research before buying them, and was told that rear fender rolling was all that was needed! I guess I will find out next weekend!
I considered the +30 offset, but it required a 10mm spacer which was a net offset or +20! So if the faces are slightly different on the +20 and +30, and didnt want that, so got the +20's and I am pretty happy!

damn when u drop, better put some seriouse camber in the front and back to clear the fenders. Also once you roll, and drop, pay attention to the bolt that holds the rear bumper to the body. You may have to shave it and move it an inch back.
