18x10.5 RPF1

Enkei 18x10.5

What do you guys think of this for a daily driving rim.. Its going to kut weight over all on the drive train vs. Stock rims. I"ll have less spokes to clean like 24 vs. stock 48.. Not sure what tire size to go with tho... 255, 265, 275, 285 or 295?

Thanks
Marc

do you have an ralliart or an evo? because if you have a 09 ralliart, you are going to have a heck of a time trying to get them to fit, but at the same time, you will probably be the first time to make such an attempt! Good wheels of choice regardless.

"some" = at least 3* up front and likely close to -2* in the rear with 275/35/18's. 265/35/18's might work better depending on how much rub and fender work you want to deal with.

They will rub on the fender liner at full lock up front...



That's 275/35/18 and my rear fenders are rolled and pulled/flared. Fronts are slightly pulled. -4.5-5* camber up front and -2ish in the rear.

You'll want smaller tires unless you want to modify fenders and align,emt. Then again, who wants to run crazy camber settings on a daily driver and risk jacking up their fenders in the first place? I'd stick with smaller tires and be done with it. You don't need all that tire day-to-day anyways, though it does look aggressive.
