18x9.5 +41 fitment? Street and Track Wheels
Hey all, I've been debating between 18x9 +35 or 18x9.5 +41 Work VSXX. Any photos or recommendations for fitment? They're going to be built fresh with the whole 9 yards (lips, barrels, hardware, powdercoat).
My other concern is since the VSXX will be "street"/showoff wheels. Has anyone fit 18x9.5 +41 or something similiar with monoblock track wheels? I currently sit on 17x8/9 +42/+38 CR Kai and want to get an set similiar in spec to the VSXX to prevent alignment issues and whatnot.

That's what I was thinking too. I'm not too worried about the rear since its almost identical. The fronts however are 8 +42 with fenders rolled flat. Any additional fender work or camber that I'll need to accomdate the 9.5 +41?

Yes that's aggressive up front, too aggressive really. You would be better off with a higher offset if you wanted to run the same rim/tire widths. +61 would be the same outer fitment as you have now with the 8 +42 for reference. At that offset you can accommodate a 255 without further fender work. That's if you want to run a square tire set up. If you drop the tire down to a 245 slightly stretching it, you could push the offset out another 5mm or so to a +55 and have it match a little closer to the rear since the rear will be pushed out 20mm more otherwise. The problem with the front is the wheels turn, so you need more fudge clearance. The rear +41 with 255 is already pushing the line on fitment for the rear, so that puts you considerably over on the front.
