215/35 R18

[dJcHiKo]

is there any website to check if these wheel dimensions will fit my 94 rolla?
18 is pretty big for a corolla but i found these rims and thought they were pretty nice, the guy wants 800 for them but i negotiated it down to 600, just not sure if theyll fit, not sure about the offset either he doesnt know but look like they could fit. I know they will rub if i have all seats full for sure
what do you think?

You'll definitely need to know the offset and width of the wheels before even buying those.

18s on 215's are a bit of a stretch. Serious. There is a large chance they might not fit.

yea im talking to the guy, trying to find out right now. i wish theyd fit thats a pretty decent deal

Use this site mate. Just enter in some sizes and it'll tell you exactly how close or far the wheel will sit due to the offset, and how much your speedo will be affected by. Amongst other things.

thanks kiwi, i gotta find out what the offset of those other rims are.

how wide tires would u guys say the biggest you can go is? 6.5? 7? 7.5?

[PhatRoyale]

It really depends on a combination of all three: offset, width and diameter.

There isn't really a set answer since all wheel fitments are different.

[topnotch]

the biggest i ever fit was 7.5 in width wrapped in 215's x35 but you definately have to roll you fenders and you have to have a decent offset the negative you will rub the fender too positive and it will rub the struts. so the offset is critical

[topnotch]

but ill say 7.5 is the max more than that and you asking to eather flair the fenders more or a widebody custom kit

[dJcHiKo]

id probably just roll the fenders,
what was the offset on the rims you had topnotch?

[Kiwi-Corolla]

Depending on the offset, you'll most definitely need to get the rear fenders rolled. My wheels are +35 offset and they rubbed all the time until I got them rolled.

well when i checked the ET# ther was none..had like a sqaure instead of a number not sure if they had blocked it so i tried them on to make sure i had clearance between the outer side towards the fender and the inside towards the strut but the R1's have a positive offset for sure between 35 to 40 plus they had a 2" chrome band but your fenders must be rolled for sure and once you have clearance between the strut and the inner rim it will be ok.

[dJcHiKo]

so if i have 215/35 R18 i should be safe with my fenders rolled with a + 35 to 40 offset? with maximum 7.5 width

You will need a major roll. With my 205/50/15's on a 15x7 +35 the tires rubbed badly (rear), after rolling they barely clear and one side still on occasion rubs. With a sway bar the front won't be a real issue.
That extra 1/2 inch will be your issue, as you can't really go in further on the wheel so that 1/2 inch will bring you further out of the well, and you won't be able to tuck it without bodywork on the 1/4's.

honestly you should just go get some new rims that are smaller
im sure they'll be a lot cheaper than 600 too

yea i think im just going to go for 16 or 17s,
how hard is it to roll body filler? lol
the rear wheel wells are pretty much bodyfiller because of rust,
would it crack?
