Does anyone have preferred 18 inch mag wheel dimensions for a GEN 3?

Talking

for the normal look... get some 18x7 or 18x7.5

if you're car is lowered with just springs, you won't be able to go any more agressive. springs tend to bounce and or sag after a certain period, and if your rims are too wide with a low offset, they may cause fender rubbing.

there's some dude who owns a GEN 4 CaM. and oh my goodness! he's running on 20x8 in the front and 20x10 in his rear. that's mad wide!!! he had custom body work. i never seen a Gen 4 CaM look so crazy. supposedly, it's gonna be ready for the next Hot Import Nights in Southern California. Be on the lookout, it's a grayish/silver/gunmetal color.

That's where you are wrong.....








This black coupe is sitting on 18x8.5 and is low.. the white one is low, too





19x8.5 on this one.....






No flares, pulled fenders or anybody mods at that point, just rolled fenders and slight camber.... Or be like my new set up.... 9.5 in the rear kiddies!!

haha... correction sir.

you do have very good points. but i guess i just forgot to mention that it also depends on the offsets of the wheels. for you and your cams, you have the proper offsets.

and....

cars with lowering springs may rub because they're not as stiff as coilovers if the wheels are too wide with low offsets.

fortunate for us, cars with coilovers can adjust to an ideal height.
