speed 6 with 18 x 8.5 wide rim

[r3d]

I recently damaged two of my wheels and now looking for a new rim/tire setup, I like how Evo X rim sits on the speed 6, but i'm affraid its going to rub. Is there a way to make 8.5 wide rim work withoust rolling fenders?

I am at the stock height right now, but planning on dropping the car this fall on coils. Any input would be helpful.

I'm also considering rim with a lip, but didn't see many 6 with dished wheels, so please post a pic if you got one.

Here's the pic of the dished rim i'm looking towards

I'm not sure on stock height but rolling the fenders is needed with a drop especially in the rear.

its always good to roll the rears not matter what. if you plan on going the 18x8.5 set up with a lower than stock ride height, you WILL have to roll the fenders. i am on H&R springs and an 18x8.5 wheels without rubbing.

You'll need to go wider if you want anything that resembles "dish." And if you go wider, you have to roll.

+45 is low.... +15 is lowrider

+45 is low if you're being conservative. It's actually pretty common to have wheels in the 8" width to be around there. But yeah, +15 isn't going to happen unless you have some ridiculously narrow wheels or body work. My wheels that I posted earlier are 10" wide with a +44, but fitment like that comes with a lot of work.
