    about XXR 530 wheel for my 2009 galant

    I want to get a new set of XXR 530 rims
    there are 18 x 8.75 or 18 x 9.75 +20/+35
    Is my galant gonna fit with these rims?
    or get 19 x 8.75 will look better ?

    Thank You ~~

    the OP has a 9G... that's too small for a 9G, good for an 8G though.

    OP is you as the Original poster. OEM offset is +35mm so you would have to see how much distance you have at the back of the wheel to see how much more of a width you can add. also 235 is correct OEM tire width at 18 inch wheels i think if you go with 225 plus the 8.75 width of the wheel itself the tires will stretch i believe.

    If I go for 8.75 , i just want to make sure the wheel wont fit the car when it turning left or right.

    So i should be fine to buy xxr 530 18 x 8.75 +35mm with 225 45 18 tires.
    right ?

    Gotti is the one person to ask.
    In this thread, post #2: https://www.thegalantcenter.org/show...781#post753781

    He says specs for 19" but if you take them and apply them to 18", 18x8.75 +35mm with 235/45/18 tires is your best bet.

    Probably won't have to do anything to fenders as the wheel wells on the 9g r huge.

    Go w/ 235/45r18 (stock 9g ralliart size)

    R u planning on lowering the car?

    If it were me i'd get at least 19" bcuz the 9g is so big, and i'd lower it as upsizing wheels exagerates the appearance of wheel well gaps. If u get big wheels and don't lower it the car will look like a 4x4.

    I am not planning on lowering my car~~I was consider 19' , but I am worrying about the gas mileage per gallon.

    If you go for 19' , it must be 235/40/19. Is that right.

    And what is the max wide for wheel on 9G, looks like 8.75 is the max, 9.75 wont work.....

    Also what is minimum offset for 9G
    +35mm ??

    What about +20mm
