I really like the Work VX SS wheels and one of the reasons is beacuse of how wide I cant get them. Future plans include on 600 horse on the crank and 500+ to the wheel with matching torque.

For the rear I would liek to go with 18x11 and I would have to really wide on the quarter. I have seen 17x10 +12's on S14's with 50mm over fenders just clear. What do you think it would take to clear 17 or 18x11? I don't mind widebody, i just dont like the plastic flares.

The available offsets are.++++++Plus 35 , 18, 9, 5-----------Neg 33, 20, 16, 8, 3

more your concern should be the amount of tire you run, because that can have a big effect on the width and offset you get

what kind of stuff do you do with the car?

Mostly show, running the 1/4 miles and that will be on slicks, and cruise. I think a 18x10 may be a better choice. Its not a slider, but I need something that can take the power and put it to the ground.

8 cylinders, a hardshifting automatic trans, and two LSD's to change one is a J30 VLSD repacked with a Cusco 1.5 way and a 3.692 ring gear. The other is the open end 4.083, welded with changed output shafts.

As for tires on a 10 inch I would assume a 295 35 18 or 295 40 17 possibly on Goodyear F1 Supercars. I would need to do my tire homework first. The Nittos well I love them, but the size options arent the best.

i cant remember off the top of my head for sure, but im 90% sure 11 +35 doesnt clear on the inside, i think 11 +18 does, so youd want to run something along those lines, on the 11 like a 305 or so

you could get an 18x10 and run 285/30/18 which is a great size, and run a 17x9 in front with a 255/40/17 or so, thatd be a nice setup and still hold that kind of power pretty well...at the power youre talking pretty much any street tire isnt going to hold if you really get on it so theres no sense going wider
