Considering custom wheels for my FL5

[HorizonsEdge]

I found this company Forza Performance

Wondering if anyone has any experience with them.

I plan on getting 18x9.5 wheels made but I need a little help with the offset. Stock wheels at 60. 45 is popular with aftermarket. What would be the optimal offset on 18's for a flush look?

thanks for you help

I have seen +40 on 18x10's so maybe a +38 or +35 might be best for a 18x9.5. Plenty of threads to look over. Good luck.

We usually recommend an ET45 for a 9.5-inch wheel on these cars if you're looking to get as close to flush as possible without any additional modification.

What I mean by that is: Something closer to an ET35 would be truly flush, so on a stock car with a stock alignment you'd see a very slight poke, but then with camber it'd tuck in nicely. However if you aren't going to do all of that, it pokes too far.

This is also assuming you're going with a 265mm tire regardless of offset.

If you know you have no other modification plans for your vehicle suspension/alignment wise then go for an ET45. It also gives you room to go up to a 275mm tire without any rubbing issues.

If you know you're willing to do additional mods to make the setup fit, aim for an ET35.

For reference - I have the stockers(+60) on my car with 20 mm spacer up front (resulting offset +40) and 25 out back (resulting offset +35) and there is zero poke. Stock camber. I am on H&R's and running a 265/35/ 19 Mich Pilot Sport A/S tire. IMO a +45 would not be flush but thats with my eye and my idea of flush might be different from others.
