Currently running the OEM stock rims for a 2009 Touring w/o Sport, but I'm looking to buy my baby some new wheels and probably new tires to go with them.

Konig Illusion

-Rim Diameter 18 inches
-Rim Width 8 inches
-Bolt Pattern (Number of Holes) 5
-Bolt Pattern (Pitch Circle Diameter) 114.3 millimeters
-Offset 45 millimeters
-Backspace 6.27 inches
-Bore Diameter 73.10 millimeters

And I would like to know if I could get some Potenza S04s to fit these
Front- 225/50R18 95Y
Back- 245/45R18 96Y


Also, was wondering if I would have a problem fitting Brembo brake calipers under these wheels, planning on matching the blue accent.

Would they fit without a new tune and/or spacers? I'm not that educated in wheel/tire knowledge.

i have an 11' base touring w/factory 18's also....they are 18x8+43,18x9+15 , you mentioned the stock size tire;which is 26.8F & 26.7R,,,,i kept my factory wheels and put 245/45's on front & 275/40's on rear...both 26.7" diameter...the front wheels could probably stand a 20 0r 25mm spacer to flush it & 15mm rear(on mine) i have my rear camber maxxed out with factory eccentric bolts (-1.75*) as far as brembo brakes-that depends on how big you want to go/that is why the sport & nismo's come w/19" wheels.....Brembo may offer some calipers to fit the 18's
initial question about wheels...there are bunches of flavors out there for these cars-just pick your poison.
BigWheels.Net: custom wheels,chrome wheels,black wheels,custom rims,american racing wheels,classic muscle car wheels,truck wheels and tires. is a good starting point.

This thread title is full of Fail. I got asked many times, "Will it Fit?". Everytime I see it I just chuckle.

You just keep putting those 24 1/4" tall tires on your car...I'm gonna stick with my 26 3/4" ones.... About being smarter? Remember- you are the one who posted that this thread should be listed as " what does not fit"

No problem; just subtract 1/2" from the last measurements I quoted. & that's how much further out your wheel will stick.....some people try a variety of different spacers before making a wheel purchase// sure don't want the front to eat up those fenders while turning....The rears are a lot more forgiving.
Have a nice day.

Currently in the market for winter wheels. Not sure what I need in order to fit around the nismo/sport brakes.

I like the look of these ones:
https://www.canadawheels.ca/RTX-APEX...CK-5-114.3-673

size: 18x8
Offset: 40
Bore: 73.1

tire size will be: 225/50/18

Any idea if they'll fit?

depends on how wheel is made,weather or not it will clear brakes,,,i'd be more concerned with the hub-centric,,,ours is 66.1-that helps hold wheel in place and supports it;even though lug-nuts ultimately center the wheel.....the way the lugnuts are made-it uses both to hold center.
