I'm currently running an 18x9 6.18" BS wheel with a 1" hub centric spacer. The wheels are +30mm offset. The set up is the same all around right now with a 275/40-18.

The front is the biggest issue. I've got the 14.25" rotor with a viper caliper. It currently clears.

The rear is easy, I've got about 2.5" inches from the fender lip and I still need to roll the lip and possibly raise the outer wheelhouse up a little since the car is low.


I'm not thrilled about the spacer. I'd like to get to a wheel set up that only needs maybe a 3/8" steel spacer up front purely for clearing the calipers, but anything less than the current 1" bolt on spacer is fine if the wheels are a compromise on price.

I just want a dark set of wheels to hide brake dust.

Right now I've got a few options:

American Racing VN215 at $200 each. 18x9 ET0 5" backspace
Enkei RPF1 18x9.5 ET15 at $360 each
ET Mags LT-III in 18x10 for $375 each. (I just sent an email out and these are my top choice, providing that they can get the shelf wheel to work for me.)

I want a 5 spoke or multi spoke minilite style wheel. The Enkeis will work from a performance and weight standpoint, but they will look a little off on the car. I think the black gloss and a red caliper will be nice to look at.

What other options do you all know of out there? Any first hand experience with the ET wheels?
