Can someone please confirm for me that the correct wheel size and offset of spiders for a T350c are.
Standard 18" spider rim width is 8.5".
Offset for the front is 42mm and rear is 33mm.
Im having to replace all 4 spider on my car again due too pothole damage.
Im think of replacing them with Compomotive M06, but they do not make the correct offset in 18 x 8.5" width.
Would fitting the smaller 18 x 8" width wheels make much difference to the handling?
And would I be able to fit 255 x 35 tyres on an 8" width rim ?

Try looking at silverstone performance. They do a better rim for your car.

yes

I've done over two years on SP12s with no pothole damage. Loads better than spiders.

3kg lighter per wheel and will take 265s on the rear.

Hi Alan
Yes I have seen the pics of your sagaris with M06s they look really good, thats why I am favouring towards them as a replacement for my spiders.
I just wonder if 18" x 9" will fit under a T350c ????
