Default 18X7.5 + 35 Rim Fit GC8

Will the below rims fit my GC8, and do you think they'd look nice on the V6. I was thinking the Bronze but they only have silver left.

I'm just worried about the offset, I have rolled guards and coilovers.

+35 might be tight. It might come down to your tyre selection, a little bit of stretch (minimal) could make all the difference. Worst case, bit of camber, raise it up a cm, you'll find a way with coils to get them to fit

That's what I thought, I'm thinking 215/40/18 or 215/35/18.

cheers

Roll the guards and stretch the tyres and it'll fit. You can get those wheels in a +45 offset too I think. Those would be better so you can run a wider tyre and or less camber.
