18" Rim Question? R56
Could I run these wheels?

On my current setup, which is H&R Springs, and Alta Control Arms? Is the offset ok? Also is the 7.5" width alright? Oh and would 215/35 for the tires be alright?
Thanks wheel guys and gals.

Your wheel size and tire size are fine even with H&R springs. Tire diameter will be 23.9" which is smaller than stock.
What tire are you planning on?
Note: you need 4x100 bolt pattern. I don't think the wheel is very lightweight. Likely 20+ lbs.

My problem is that I want white wheels with like a 7 to 10 spoke design. Not alot of options out there. I want 18's but might end up with 17's because of fitment. Most of the white 18's are either 7.5 or 8 wide. Any other thoughts?
You could run 7.5J and 8J wide wheels no problem. What's your budget as that plays a big role on wheel selection. Look for something like an ET42 and you'll be fine.
On the R56 I wouldn't go with any tire size other than 215/40/18 cause it's a much bulkier looking car than the R53. The 35 series would be too thin IMO.
Best of luck.
