could i get these wheels to fit my 8?
heres the wheel specs:
front: 18x9 +9 offset
rear: 18x10 +7 offset.

would love to pick up this set for my 8, but the rear wheel width combined with that offset makes me think its hopeless. would it be possible to fit them without doing major mods? i wouldnt mind rolling my fenders if that was all i needed to do...

no chance. these would stick out of the fenders by over an inch and look dorky.

The 18X10's are to wide. Go with 9.5 in the back

If by "fit" you mean "go on the car" then yes. If you mean "fit" as in "go on the car and not look retarded" then no.

Maybe they are Cragar S/S and they are supposed to stick out.

thats a 350z offset. but you shouldnt have a problem with a 18x10 rear unless you have a offset like that. 35-42 is just right
but hey what do I know
