SSR Type F... Question

Found a great deal on these wheels from a vender here on the forum. I want the Type C's but I have those on my IX. Anyone know if this car or owner is here on the forums? The Fitment is perfect IMO. I wanna know the offset and size

probably easier to contact ssr and ask them since it's on their website.

I have 18x9.5 +22 and they don't look as aggressive as those but maybe thats because my tires are 245/40. I would say they could be 18x10.5 +25. See this guys set-up

Oh I thought the car in the pic didn't have that much of an aggressive wheel setup, I thought my car looked like that. Could be mistaken, I'm curious now.

Not much camber, 10.5 need at least -1.5 camber i would think,

The rears stick out to much on that car. I seen your can on a search yesterday, they are gold right. Imo and don't take this wrong but I thought yours were not enough in the rear, but I do like it! Still better than my stock gsr wheels lol. Hows Columbus? I know ALOT of people there, moved to Vegas from there.
I want to run a 40 tire with maybe a 265ish width.

None taken!

I enjoy Columbus, don't seem to find too many friendly evo guys/gals though. Then again it seems as though I am always in my truck rather than in my car. I need a license plate or sticker for my truck that notes my other car is an evo

I think the only pictures I have posted of my car with the SSR's are ones when it was lowered on Works springs. Looking at those pictures now I completely agree with you, not enough in the rear. Having said that I did find this picture, which was after I put coilovers on and lowered it a decent amount. I think it looks better, also keep in mind I was running a 5mm spacer on all 4 corners.

If you plan on 18x10.5 with a 265/40 I dont think that is gonna work out too well because the tire height is taller than stock I believe. I have an 18x9.15 +15 rpf1 on my car with a 275/35 star spec and the overall diameter is SUPER close to stock.All I had to do was roll my rear fenders slightly. Just run a tire like that on a 10.5 wheel anyway cause 265 might be a little bit of a stretch? Also that depends on if your car is lowered at all too. I just have my X dropped on swift spec r's, which isn't a crazy drop at all and have -1.5 and -1.0 camber front and rear

^^ Correct/Incorrect. Stock size for the Evox is 245/40/18 so if you planned on running 265/40, it would've worked. The 265/35 on the 10.5 will cause a stretch.

Here's mine on 18x10.5 + 15 lowered on t1r coilovers
