18 x 9.5" wheels on box

[packman]

So, I am in the process of gathering parts for the big brake swap. Came to the realization that my current summer wheels will not work with the '98 front hubs. So I am looking for something to replace them with. I am looking at some 18 x 9.5 wheels with a back spacing of 5.25"in Will these fit on the front of a box with the big brake upgrade?

Summer wheels on Creamy are 18 x 10 on the front and 11.5 x 18 on the rear. Both are 0 offset.
Best would be 18 x 8 on the front and 18 x 10 on the rear 0 offset. 0 ofset wheels can be hard to find my summer wheels were custom made.

1" offset.

If my CV were anywhere near as nice as Creamy, I would think about custom wheels. For now, it will be OTS wheels. Too bad, I really liked my American Racing Ansen Sprint wheels :-(

a LOT DEPENDS ON TIRE SIZES and if your gona jack the car up. 285 30 18 kds BFGs , 275 50 15 BFGs (out of production) Are the max width height on the front without hitting the rear inner fender well. Sticking the tire/wheel 1" outward going to be sticking right about even or a bit beyond the fender front and rear.

Depending on tire size i dont see it as an issue...i clear 315/35/17's with no issues at all and im lowered.

90s are set up a bit different
