Offset Question, Anyone Running 18x11+0 in the rear?

I'm about to purchase some wheels and was wondering how far this would stick out on a stock s14. I tried searching other peoples specs but didn't have much luck. Can i pull it off with a slight pull,flare type roll and camber? Or Will i have to go wide body?

Any feedback would be appreciated, Just want to have an idea of what im in for before i pick them up.

Your looking at a pull and stretch at the least, and your probably going to need some camber as well. I have never dealt with the exact size your going for on a s14 however I have mounted a 17x10.5 +27 on a stock bodied s14. The tires on the wheels were 245-45 and the tire was perfect flush with the stock body and the wheel seemed to stick past the body almost 1 inch. With 11's you can add .25" to the outside right off the top of the size I posted, and then another .5" due to offset. The 11's +0 will not go "in" the wheel well as far as my 10.5's by .25 so depending on how much pull your willing to go with and how much camber your willing to go with and how much stretch your willing to go with should determine if you will like them or not.
I say they will fit, easy with a 235.... but do you only want to put a 235 on there? It would look sick (and I love stretches) but that even seems like a waste to me! I think with a good pull you should be able to get a 245 or 255 under there easy though.


I would like to add that Im very sleepy, so my math could be way fucked up, but I think its right.

Damm ^ thanks man for the measurements seeing those and looking at this pictures give me a better idea of how much they'll stick out in person.

Closest thing i found where these off beastmode car 18x11-1 running 245-40 2.5 camber in the back with an extensive pull and flare.
my only draw back is if i can pull it off with oem aero all around now lol

Thats not much of a pull at all, and it does look much better with skirts and a rear bumper
