I have 17" RH C2 Evo's plus H&R Springs and they just barely fit(offset wise). I haven't encountered any rubbing from 2 track days and daily driving. I definately like the look of it too. Are the 18" wheels the same offset as the 17's? If it's less offset, they won't fit, I have less than 1 mm clearence between the caliper and the wheel with the 17's.

I bought C2 evo's in 18's and they wouldn't clear the front calipers. You have to have a spacer, 5mm I think.

I have 18" Rh evo Z5000's with h&r springs and they fit fine...only rub when I corner fast or very quick changes in elevation of the road.

I love the looks of the RH C2 rims...I wanted to get them in 18's, but didn't know if they would fit the S. I don't want the same size rims front and rear. I need some wide @ss rims in the back Anyone have pictures?

rdriver, are the spacers good to use even if you do extreme driving?

I didn't buy the spacers. I sold the wheels to a friend. Some one on the board did run the wheels with the spacers and it worked with factory studs, but I didn't like the idea. I can't remember who it was running them, but he was lowered and said he didn't have any rubbing issues.
