Does anybody run 18's on theirs or is there clearance issues????? Not going on a track car just a cruiser. Cheers in advance.

Wouldn't advise it, ruins the ride/ handling and also looks a bit stupid as they're too big.

Stick with 17's.

Some 18" do look good.

How much has that been lowered and do you have to run spacers????

No spacers and it was lowered on Tein Basic Coilovers around 40-50mm..

Ive got 5x114 17" lensos

and 4x114 17" leagues

I had 18s for a while and they looked great, but the drive was terrible

yeah you have to run 35 profile tyre's really

if we all lived in the USA, or somewhere with nice straight roads I'd say go for it

but alas we live in shitty pothole Britain
