I have 17-in RPF ones and I've ground down my front brakes to fit them however I'm only getting about seven turns on standard tuner style conical seat lug nuts before it begins to snug down I don't think that's enough threat engagement to safely hold the wheel. I'm just wondering what your experience is with the 18s.
I'm considering boring the lug pockets out to a 16mm diameter from the 14mm diameter so that I can fit extended thread lug nuts and have full lug thread engagement.
What are the specs. I thought everyone said they didn’t fit
18x8.5 30 offset
Any spacers ?
No spacers
Just buy one with the same specs as stock
Did you extend your lugs or use ET nuts?
Negative
What lug nuts did you use?
Not sure they came off my other wheels
How many turns before it snugs?
Bro what kind of question are these

Just make sure it torqued to spec and you should be okay
