    question about wheel fitment

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    anybody sporting Ultraleggeras? I just ordered a set of 18X8 and was wondering if they need spacers, or does the normal offset look fine by itself? Just looking for opinions on this so I can get spacers if I need to. Thanks.

    the offset is 35mm for that wheel...if I'm mistaken, please correct me.

    I think they look great with a drop. PM "i_eat_staples" about his setup:

    Re: question about wheel fitment

    that's the one drawback is that I can't drop it yet. I live on a small private lane in Germnay and when I back the car out of the garage (more like car closet), the rear bumper goes over the curb and misses by around 1/2 inch. I actually have to pull off a 3point turn just to get into it. Anyway, I'm riding on some "temp" wheels right now since i went down from 19" back to 18" to help a little with the ride on the backroads around here. I wanted something light that wasn't too expensive for now so I don't have to look at the reps anymore; I wasn't thinking one day and used acid based cleaner on them and now the coating on them is foggy and scratched up.
