Hopefully wont need spacers. will post pictures by the end of next week if they work without spacers

How did this wheel/tire combo work out for you? Any pictures?
I'd consider 18" rears with slightly taller side wall on my SRT roadster to dampen stiff ride a touch.

Here are some pictures of my new AMG Clone wheels from USA wheels in California.
18x8.5x+35 front
19x9.5x+45+10mm spacers.
I think they look great! No problem balancing no vibrations all went well.

Re: New Wheels and Tires - A List of What Works

looking at winter wheels and tires. found this:
4 Bridgestone Blizzak 225/55 R 17 Tires on Voxx Rims, $400 for the set, or $100 each. Wheels are size 5-112 mm, with a 40mm offset.

Came off a 2001 sd-55 amg. verified the bore is 66.5

What concerns me is the 40mm offset. Is this compatible with my 2005 NA limited?
