I have been considering for some time now a set of xxr wheels in 18's so they can fit my 8pots under the front wheels. Ive explored every option of getting 17's with very little luck.

My question is what would you do if you were in my shoes

Now i can get fronts which are 8.75 wide and 8.75 on the rear,however im not sure what effect that will have on the handling with it having a staggared setup as standard.

My second option would be to get 8.75 for the front and 9.75 for the rear,and for obvious reasons keeping the stagared set up, but then theres the extra work of pver fenders,not so much the cost but just finding a set

Or third and far to simple options just buy a set of rotas which will fit straight on, but thats just too easy and no challenge

Opinions?

I think it depends on your wallet and patients....

There are so many wheels that will go on some way or another....

ditch the brakes and keep it 17"

Is the OP a doctor?

I'd stick with 17s personally. 8 pots are abit of an overkill in my eyes.

Possibly or a vet.... Dr fox!

Ditch the brakes and buy wheels that fit

Why do you need 8 pots anyway?

Haha no im neither just a carpet fitter, the cars turbo'd and will be upping it to around 450-500 next year,its a road/track car and obliterated the discs and pads after 5-10 laps of teeside,it was a small course with lots of corners, but its the closest cheapest one to do.

I did want to keep 17's as i didnt want to upset the car but i could only find one rota wheel that would fit and it was a gtr'd 9 inch wide for the front,so god know what the back would have to be 9.5/10's which is still a collossal size.

I dont have deep pockets but dont mind thowing money at the car,its a keeper
