18 inch rims on VE SSV

[Jacob Johnson]

Hi, I recently bought an ssv and am wanting to get new wheels. Currently sitting on 20's but want to go 18s. Anyone else running 18's? And what width and offset would fill the guards best? I'm thinking something like 18x10 +40 offset should fit but anyone know for sure? Also, the car is lowered on ssl springs.
Thanks

SS-V ran same brakes as SS, which had 18s as standard, so no issue with that side of things, cant comment on offsets etc.

As far as I know the 18" VE Series I & II factory mag wheels were an 18 x 8" with +48 offset
Never fitted wider wheels than stock size to a VE, so I can't help with what offsets will or will not work on them

I went from factory 19's to 18's. Had to roll the rear guards, car is stock height.

18x10 rears, +36
18x8 fronts +30

what rear brakes you running

 

[Zehq]

Stock single pistons.

EDIT: Although the current setup is compatible with bigger brakes.

@Jacob Johnson you should note that @Zehq 's rims are fitting over Brembos in the front so will easily fit over standard front bakes on an SSV.

Apologies for bringing up such an old thread. But what are those rims called? Thanks in advance.
