#26182, "Will these rims fit my eclipse?"




          

18 x 7.5 J

Offset 32 / 43 / 48

Rim Depth 70

Lugs 5

P.C.D 114.3


anyone know if this will fit our cars? I know the lug and pattern is cool, but what about the offset and rim depth. I'm not knowledgable in that area what-so-ever. let me know if you need any other info

according to tirerack.com, you can fit rims up until a 35 (lowest) offset. that would be with making rolling your fenders a necessity though.

Are you planning on getting lowering springs?
What size tires are you getting?

We just ordered 18x7.5 and the car is dropped 2". We'll find out tomorrow if they fit or not. Tires are 215/40s.

Forgot: We do have 18x8s on the Spyder. Tires are 235/40s and they fit just fine. The Spyder isn't lowered though, so I don't know if tires that wide will still fit after being lowered. We went the save route with the Talon and got tires that aren't as wide for it since it's lowered over 2"... emoji

As long as you get a 35 or 40 series tire that isn't too wide, for example 215/40/18 you should be fine no matter what. If you go much wider then 215 you should consider getting 35 series tires, imo.

i got 225/40/18's with a a 2 inch drop on my car... i dont have any rubbing and had no problems with them fitting on my car. I would recommend correcting you camber though if that problem arises.

I don't think you guys understood, will the rim fit my car, not with tires, just will is bolt on fine. the offset isn't stock and things like that is what I'm worried about.
