Hi guys I was wondering if anyone has a set of 18x9.5 +38offset wheels fitted to their SH Foz? I'm looking to buy a set of Rota Grids R's with that aggressive look. Also what would be the widest tyre I could fit on? Thanks

I would say that that size is more suited to the street, due to the fact you have to stretch the tyres to make them fit under the guards. That wouldn't be optimal tyre fitment for the track.

Go for something like an 8" wide and throw on the some 235 semi slicks of the correct width :thumbs:

I have TE37’s in 18x9.5 +38 with 235/40/18 tyres.

Slight stretch but will fit the SH fine.

Could probably go a wider tyre to keep my speedo in check when time comes.
