They are gonna be 7.5" or if i get the adr wheels, 8.5". I am using wheel spacers though to push them out to lay flesh with the wide fenders in the front and back.

I would go with Axis Se7ens. I like the Passion 5's I use to have them but I dont think they would sit right with a Wide body. I had 18's and they looked for like 16's and I have a 2" drop. I like the design alot better on the se7ens too. Have you looked at 5 Zigen Hyper 5ZR's I just bought mine and with a good offset those would look SICK. Only problem is they dont come in Gunmetal so im getting mine powdercoated to be original. Try to be unique especially with the widebody kit Jim

wow. bad idea. Good luck on that one when your wheels fall off, lol. This better be a trailer bitch only.
We have what are called HUBCENTRIC hubs and wheels. The wheels actually ride on the hub and not on the lugs. there is that ring that seats then wheel directly over the rim and the lugs are only used to hold the rims up against the hub. If you use spacers then the entire weight of the car will be supported only by the lugs which they were not designed for and will snap quite easily. People on here snap them all the time by overtightening their lugs. And with spaces you will have to use even longer lugs which will make it even more dangerous. Remind me never to ride in your car!

Why arent' you going with a wider wheel?? Throw on a set of 18/19 x 9 with some wide tires and a +50 offset. Do it right. If you ghetto fab your car together, you will hate yourself in the long run (ie when your car falls to the ground because all your lugs fell off)

Well if I do a 18x9 rim, the only wheel I found in that size is the ADR M-Sports. see above pic for those. Even with a 9" wide rim, im gonna be rubbing on plastic fender well and 9" still may not be wide enough to look flesh with the fenders.
i like the axis seven mods and the adr m-sports the most. if i go with the axis which i really like, i would need wheel spacers like the ones above because they only make 18 in 7.5" wide. the m-sports come in 8.5 or 9.5" wide. axis has 2" lip and adr msports have 2.5". which ones!? lol
