FS: HyperBlack Rota Grids, 18x9.5" +38

Hey guys. So as some of you may already know, I got a different set of wheels, so I don't think I'll be needing these beauties. These are brand new, never been used, and are still in Cali at the WheelDude warehouse. They're Rota Grids in HyperBlack and are 18x9.5's with a +38 offset, 5x100 bolt pattern. The sizing is pretty aggressive, so a rear fender pull and rear camber plates will be needed, as well as lots of negative camber (at least -2.0 degrees or more). I fit these in a MORE aggressive fitment with a 10" wheel and a +35 offset with 255's on my wagon, so all you sedan guys have no excuses. Selling them for what I bought them for.......$850, and the buyer is to arrange shipping from Dan @ WheelDude. Dan knows the deal, so you can just contact him directly for a shipping quote. Just let him know that you're inquiring about Brandon's wheels. Here's a couple pics on the car. My wheels are a little wider and lower offset, but the face and dish will be identical. Lot's of concave here:

Yep, thanks for the reply Joe. They're still at the WheelDude warehouse. I bought these on the GB and they just came in last week. They're ready to be picked up or shipped. You can call Dan @ WheelDude and he can get you a shipping quote if you need them shipped too.

Yup, It's confirmed.....I'm a donkey. I got a set of these in 18x10's with a +35 and also a set in 18x9.5's with a +38. Only thing is that the 10's are on the car now and the 9.5's are in Cali still.

That, I'm not too sure of. You'd have to check with Dan @ WheelDude.

Anything is possible. I know the Legacy's don't have a lot of room.....just like my wagon. Lot's of people doubted that my 10's would fit on a stoc-bodied wagon, but they do. It's just a matter of how much work you're willing to do to make them fit. I know there's a guy on Nasioc that has a set of 18x9, +35 G-Forces (just like my old set) on his Leggy.

Sounds like a lot of work to make it fit in the wheel wells.. I wonder how it will perform and how it will affect the ride (better? worse?)

BTW, what is the weight of one of them rims? what tires are shod on those currently?

As far as what they'll perform like, it really depends on what you're comparing them to. I think most people will agree that a 17" wheel/tire combo (if set up properly) will usually give you better performance, weight savings, etc...

As for the weight, I'm really not too sure. I want to say that I saw/read somewhere that they're around 23lbs. a piece, but don't quote me on that. The wheels that I'm selling don't come with tires. The wheels pictured above and currently on my car are wrapped with 255/35/18 Federal tires.

23lbs is MUY light for a rim that size, bro... incredible. That set WILL change the entire look of a car!

Will definitely check it out for your vendor.

Awesome wheels... Thanks!
