18x9.5 Work CR Ultimate HELP

[ChrisClassic]

Hello everyone,

As you may see I am new to the site even though I have been lurking the forums for a few months now. Nevertheless, I have a 2012 Honda Civic LX and I was planning on getting 18x9.5 Work CR Ultimate's on 215/40ZR18 tires and installing KSport Coilovers. My question is which offset would be best in terms of being able to fit the rims in the car without any other accessories such as cambers? The rims come in four different offsets 12, 20, 30 and 38.

Thank you ahead of time.

Most of the people on wheels that wide are either rubbing badly, had to roll fenders, or have to run significant camber.

Thank you, I could get the wheels in 18x8.5 however these are semi-concave while the 18x9.5 are deep concave and I prefer deep concave but if worst comes to worst I will go with the 18x8.5.

I wouldn't suggest going 9 1/2 inch wide, a car with that wide a wheel and tires that rub when you drive isn't much good, unless you plan to park it on a mat in a car show. But hey, it's your money... do what makes you happy.

This is a good example.

Work CR Kiwami's in Matte Bronze (18x9.5 +38); 225/40/18 BFgoodrich KDW2 tires

The +38 will give you the least hassle but im sure you will rub significantly. Be ready to do fender work!

Thanks for all the advice, after much consideration I will go with 18x8.5 on 215/35ZR18 tires. I will definitely post pictures of the car once it is done (in about a month and a half). Thank you all for the help.

Why are you getting 215/35s? The HFP 18s come with 215/40-18. I would strongly recommend going with that size.
