Let me clarify: I wish these came in a 4 lug size that didn't suck total azz and bawls. I want the 18x10's.

What do you mean!? Just get the 18x10+25's with maybe some 7mm slip on spacers to clear coilovers. If you pick coilovers like Megan or Apex'i, you might not even need the spacers...

Yeah, I know... but since I started that "Definitive 4 lug wheel" thread, I feel obligated to get some dope 4 lug fitment. But If i do go 5 lug, I'll probably end up getting some heavy-azz Mustang replica wheels like these:

Can't get much cheaper with better fitment than these guys...

You're probably gonna need spacers with those teins. Apex'i and Megan specically have longer brackets to give you more backspace between your wheel and coilover.

once i get the wheels ill check if they clear or not. shipped they would probably be around $560 plus tires. i hate not having lots of money...

BTW these are the knockoff's i had of the cr kai's. There's a lot of lug patterns on the back but i didnt see an offset. maybe im just blind.

The 18x8.5+30 will be pretty sunken. 18x10+25 all around with 7mm spacers, homie. It will be WIN. With sticky 245/40/18 tires. Roll fenders, add negative camber and get bishes.

LMAO sig worthy quote. Nothing wrong with black on black btw, they look the best outta of em all. The dark color kinda hides the knock offish look when you get close.

im kinda curious too. i might order the 18x10 but only 2. I'll try fitting them in the front. If theyre too big, ill just put em on the back and then get the 18x8.5 in the front

sweet! I would much rather run the 10s up in the front than the 8.5s. Depends if they clear coils though.
