18x8.5...not sure about the offset as I told them what I wanted to do and they said they would make it work for me. I didn't see anything stamped inside the one wheel I took out with the offset and it's not written on the outside of the box. I'll be verifying it them all later this week when i'm done with my training class.

I'll add that I've seen his car, and the fenders look fine.

Did some test fitting. Definitely going to need a fender roll. So far I'm digging the setup once I get everything done I'll get some better pics.









Hella flush!!

255 would have been way too wide. The 245's are already wider than my 255 pss'....as for height so far they seem ok, just need fender roll.....and I missed the 235...
