I can't say enough good things about these wheels. They are TOUGH.

I've had the following incidents happen to me:

- Tire blowout at highway speeds (sidewall of the tire just ate itself). Managed to drive off to the shoulder safely. Rim was completely okay.
- Went off track at Buttonwillow a few times. Wheels were fine, no cracks or bends. Couple of hard spots where I went one wheel off at some corners, no problems.
- Went off track at Thunderhill, sliding down a hill sideways on the Cyclone. Wheels were fine!!
- Went off track at Streets of Willow twice - both times were not in great spots. Ran over quite a few 3-4" rocks. Wheels were fine, no cracks or bends.
- Went off track at ACS - hit a curb head on with the wheel, wheel was fine!

Yeah, I have a lot of off-track incidents because I'm still learning and perhaps taking things too aggressively, but these wheels have seriously never failed me. After balancing from each incident, they are perfect (doesn't require an excessive amount of weights either)

They have a gorgeous finish, and after detailing them, you'd never suspect they've been through so many track battles. I'm probably going to order another set for spares, I love them that much!!

:bow: So pumped to hear from our customers like this. You are clearly using our products to the fullest, and we wouldn't have it any other way. See you at Buttonwillow!

I measured the CP9668 template against my 18" EC-7 ET-25 and they cleared with room to spare. Ultimately did not go with the 9668 as it didn't clear my 19" ZCP wheels.

I run my zcp with a spacer so should fit.

Yes sir, we've got a small batch for approx 24 units coming at the end of the month. We are receiving backorders for them since they are quite popular in this size/finish, so be sure to let us know if you want a set reserved off of this shipment. :thumbsup:

Thank you for your interest. There are many factors when it come to clearance. Variables like vehicle ride height, tire size, tire brand and alignment settings will directly effect how a wheel/tire fitment works with your fenders.

In many cases, the 18x11 et25 is a direct fit. Do you have a particular tire brand and sizes in mind?

Is it possible to run a 40 aspect tire with the 18" wheels on an e92 with comp pkg? I ask cuz I've bent two sets of front stock 19" zcp wheels and looking to go smaller wheel with a thicker tire to try and keep from it happening a third time

Are you looking to go with an 18" staggered or square fitment?

The only two tires with a 40 sidewall would be 235/40-18 and 245/40-18, both being quite slim for aftermarket front wheels. The ride quality and performance of 18" wheels is quite drastic coming from 19's. Here are the more popular fitments:

Staggered:
18x9 et30/31 - 255/35-18
18x10 et25 - 275/35-18

18x9.5 et22 - 265/35-18
18x10.5 et27 - 285/35-18

Square:
18x10 et25 - 275/35-18

Interlagos Blue on Satin Black is a great combination.
