Having a wheel problem..

[Thunderboy]

Hey is there anyone out there running a lowered fox with 18" wheels. I need to know how they fit or if they will fit at all. I'm looking into upgrading suspension (Eibach sportline springs and dampers), brakes and wheels at the same time. Any help would be much appreciated. Is there a way to measure required backspacing for wheels? Thanks.

Yes 18s will work many have them. However, I have never seen them on a car with sportlines. I would bet that rubbing will be a huge problam with the 2" drop.

That was what I was worried about the most. I am also doing a Cobra brake conversion which calls for at least 17x8 wheels to clear the calipers and rotors. I just wanted to get an idea on my options for wheel sizes before I got that far.
