SSR GTX01 18x9.5 +22 Dark Silver Type C

New wheels for my JDM evo 8 and this is how it looked like.

Tires: Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 255/35/18

Fitment.
* CAR IS ON TEIN COILS*
Front: fits perfectly just need to take out he fender liner, no spacers and fender mod required.
Rear: raised the coils to 8-10threads showing and adjusted my camber to max, rubs a little bit but will get the rears rolled and relocate rear bumper bolt so i can lower the car even more. Other than that, no spacers is required.

Honestly, Im ok with how the fitment looks rn.

Looks sharp, but yeah, you are correct. The +22 in the 9.5" width makes fitment a bit tough & rear fender work
is needed

Make sure you dont remove the front liners all together. There is very sensitive wiring that runs above both liners that need protection

The +15 is further outboard, so the fitment would have been impossible. A +28 or higher would have been easier

But, dont worry, the +22, with the proper rear fender work, is OK
