ey guys,

I want a very close to flush look on my 06 tbsti wagon....

what kinda widths and offset it need as i don't want to roll the guards or camber

i'm thinking 18x8 at the front and 18x8.5 rear....but dunno much about the offset...

Any help would be kindly appreciated.

Run 18x8.5 all round. U'll ruin ur centre diff by running staggered widths. 18x8.5 +45 would be perfectly flush with a little bit of camber.

Ah okay....

what if i want some concave in the wheels... would i go for a lower offset say 30?....

i don't have brembos..

also mine is 5x100 not 114.3??

u wouldn't get 8.5 +30 under there without some pretty aggressive camber, stretched tyres and rolled/pulled guards.

stud pattern doesn't affect ur fitment

dame.... i will probably take your advice n find something thats 8.5 wide with 44 offset....

Thanks heaps...

also i wasn't 100% sure if mines 5 x 100 or 114.3.... as far as i know it's 100??... am i correct?

Yes, 5x100 is correct.

awsome.... thanks heaps for the assistance guys!

I'm at +40 8.5 an lowered. No guard work required. Though the rear is pretty tight...

yea I've had 8.5 +38 but required a bit of guard work because my coilovers didnt have camber tops which created a big issue for fitment. pedders.........

I suggested 8.5 +45 for the OP as I'm not sure how low, how much camber etc he wants to run.

yeah mine is with 225 40's... so mild stretch allows for an easy fit when lowered at that offset.

But i agree +45 at 8.5 would work well in almost any application.

awsome.... yer i don't intend on having any camber or rolling my guards... wana keep them as is... n just get something that will just fit...

thanks heaps for the input guys

You can't have both flush and no rolling guards or camber unless you run a high ride height, which will look silly i unless you're into that.

If you have less flush you can do it, otherwise you have to roll/camber.

+1

At 8.5 width, you need a lower offset than +45 to be flush with the guards.

+1 what rooby said.
