    New wheels...time to pic whore lol

    So after 12 odd weeks to manufacture...and then more delays to ship them over...the replacements for my Eurolines have finally left JDMDistro in Ireland to begin the final leg to me here in Scotland.
    To say I'm exicted is an understatement lol

    SSR SP1 in super black chrome, with polished lips
    18x9.5-3 and 18x12+11
    I could have gone more aggressive in offsets...but I wanted them to be able to fit basically full size tyres :-)
    I should be able to run a 255 up front and if lucky a 315 at the rear...if not will go 245 and 295 :-)

    Where are you getting your 315s Jamie? And what profile are they? I've got 12's to go on mines and the widest tire I can find is a 295/35.

    I've found 315/30 on camskill for a reasonable amount. My usual supplier seems to have gone bye bye

    My mate got 295 AD08r on his 12j Professors on a rx7, very slight stretch looks awesome.

    Very nice wheels will look sooooooo much better than the Eurolines

    Yeah I suspect 315s wont work. tried before with a 12j+20 set and a 15mm spacer...was fag paper close to the arch.

    295 is the backup...as 305 in 18" road tyres dont seem to exist.

    Not sure about rears but I have very similar fronts (18x9.75 et-3) running 265's and I've got, affectively, 50mm front wings. Unless you're running 6+ deg of camber I think you're going to struggle, sorry. Stretch

    My rota that I have up front atm are 9.5 +12 with 10mm spacer and a 255...they're pretty tucked.
    Likewise 50mm front wings. Plan was 245 up front :-)
