Are these wheels too big on coilovers?

Post by Rixx »

As title suggests.

I have a UK Spec MR2 Mk2 NA which has had a turbo conversion and will be running 500bhp

Looking for wheels. Will these be too big?

Specs:
BC Racing Coilovers

Wheel:
18" 8.5J et35 (Front)
18" 9.5J et35 (Rear)

Cheers

Thanks vampire.

I've spoken to a few people and and have been receiving mixed advice - some say it will be fine and others say it won't..

Cautious because I won't be able to return the wheels if I find they are indeed too big - I love the look of these wheels though!
