I'm a big fan of the Enkei NT03+M. Comes in 18x10.5 +30

Their newer "RR" line also has all sorts of sizes, but are a bit pricey compared to the prior line

Also, dig for used TE37's or Ce28n's if you can. Can't get better than that

I just picked up some 18x10s all around. Going a little beefier with 275/40/18 tires.

Yes, with 10mm rear spacers, -2.7 front camber -2.0 rear camber

I have a lot of track and autox on these.
Konig Ultraform, 18x10.5 +25, 20mm spacer in the rear to flush. Currently on 285 re71

I wish we had more options in 275/40

That's absolutely crazy. Here's Thomas' car with those same specs and -3.1 camber.

I was seriously considering buying these wheels but opted not to due to how far they poke. I didn't want to destroy my front fenders. So it's crazy to see your car with these same specs and have them fit way more flush with less camber.

OptionZero 04-03-2019 10:30 PM

That doesn't sound right to me

the red Z . . . that front spec of 18x10.5 +18 should not stick out that much
unless its just some wierd photography, that looks like it sticks out more than my fronts (20x11 +15)

Are we sure "Thomas" doesn't have spacers?

Brendan 04-03-2019 10:44 PM

you're even running the same tires in the pic. crazy.

Well he’s got really meaty tires. I mean unless he lied to me and told me incorrect information (not sure why he would do that). More pics on his Instagram @timeattack370

About Thomas car, in the last photo, it doesn't look like he has any negative camber, very minimal, his wheels are nt03rr which comes in 18×10.5+15 or 18×11+15, if the later, it will be farther out by nearly 10mm than mine, but I think his wheels are 10.5

With my car and my camber, it is very flush, I think it rubbed the fender twice at the track.

Now, I am sitting at -3.25 front, but changed my tires, I can get a photo with my other wheels, 19×9.5+22 275/35/19 which should be the same height and about 5mm inside (the wheels would be around 17mm inside) compared to my 18 wheels.

His wheels aren't NT03rr...they are Konig Dekagram's which come in 18x10.5 +18. And I agree, his wheels look like they do not have -3 camber. Because of these pictures, I opted out to NOT get these wheels, I ended up getting Konig Ampliforms 18x10 +20 all around.

Looks great. Did you have to run hubcentric rings with the ultraforms or install extended lugs?

I just ordered some 19" ultraforms in grey, although I'm kind of wishing I'd went with the gold after seeing your setup.

Thanks

Seeing alot of people saying they run a 10.5 in the front with no issues. I just went wider to this size in the front with a +15 offset (10.5 +15) and now i'm rubbing like crazy with a 275/40/18.

Its not in a turn but when I go over any halfway decent sized bump. I think its hitting the tab that holds the bumper in the wheel well. I already rolled the fenders and am only lowered on swift springs. Any advise here?

I ordered a quick release so I can remove the tab and am about to order some 35 aspect ratio tires. But if someone has words of wisdom i'm all ears.

at +15 you're going to have issues. You want to be around +21 to +30 if you want run 10.5 with moderate camber
