    18x9.5 and 18x10 are the same, yes

    18x8.5 are flat

    The reason I asked is it seem 18's have are far more con-caved then 17"s






    didnt want it to show up any more then that


    dropped to 9J as gone geo hub knuckles and need to gain that little bit more clearance and with a 215/40 tyre up front in seemed like a sensible choice...

    only time will tell

    Kam,

    this is because I run staggered diameter as well as width

    thats a 10x18" et15 rear and 9.5j ET20 front


    dropping the front to allow for extra clearance on lock


    run 17"s up front as new 215/40 r17 are far cheaper then 215/35 r18
