as title...will 9x18's fit on a FRS?

what width are the standard rims?

what offset is needed?

will it scrub if i were to have it on coilovers wound right down?

cheers people...trying to visualise it all in my head before i commit myself to anything

Hi

I dout it, the standard wheels are 8J. And if have coilovers the wheels would almost certinaly rub on the arches.

i have H&R coilovers and standard RS wheels on mine. they have caught once on a front arch after a brief flying lesson over a hump back bridge.
theres not going to be much room under the arches with 9 inch wide wheels unless you go for a different profile tyre which will the ruin the handling.
i would stick with the standard wheels and spend the extra money on poly bushing the front and possibly swap to H&R anti roll bars. also camber adjustable top mounts if your going to run coilovers as your tyres will die rather quickly without like i found out!

 

Hi

Roll the arches!!!! Please Don't

Standard off set is et 42 on a 8j rim, you might be able to get a 9j if you can get a different off set like 45 or more if it misses the spring / upright as i think if you keep the standard off set they will rub
