18"x9.5" Et30's Possible On An Altezza / Is200?

Hi all,

I'm new to the forum and new to Altezza ownership as ill be picking the car up on monday night! :)

it's a fresh import in white, extremely low 29500 klms verified mileage with certificate, it has the TRD front bumper and aftermarket side skirts and rear lip, lowered on Tein springs, Kakimoto cat back, and jdm 2 peice split rim alloys in 18's.

I love the look of the car but think the wheels really let it down, plus the rear tyres are barely legal, so I'm looking at getting some new wheels and tyres.

I'm a really big fan of the Rota GTR alloys and would love to get them in white, and in the agressive size of 18x9.5" now I know that the width is about an inch more than is really advised, and that the offset is at least 15mm too low, but I was wondering if anyone has actually managed to get this size wheel on their Altezza / is200? And if so what work was needed to fit them? Was it all worth it?

I think the wheels would look amazing on the car as I think they would compliment the agressive looks of the bodykit.

Failing that, my only other wheel choice would be the Rota Force in an 18x8.5" ET48 set up, anyone running these on their Altezza / is200?

Thanks in advance,

Arron

That looks awesome mate! Thanks for that.

It looks like your running the 8.5" on the fronts? What sort of trouble would it be to have the 9.5" all round?

Also what tyre sizes would you recommend?

Cheers,

Arron

yup they will fit, but you will need to roll the arches, they will still rub though under compression

here they are on my car
