If you go that route you will also need to buy the bolt on spacers since the wheels won't clear the brakes and also buy another set of lug nuts for each wheel. So if you didn't know it isn't as simple as buying those wheels.

Kinda sucks since you have to take your wheels off, bolt on the spacer and then bolt on the wheel, then again unbolt the wheel then unbolt the spacer then bolt on your regular wheel when done.

That is what was nice about the CCW drag setup, unbolt your normal wheel, bolt the ccw drag setup right in place and go and look good doing it

I decided to go with 265/40/18 Mickey Thompson ET Street Radial IIs on a set of Brabus 18x9.5" knockoffs, and tomorrow will be my first day out on them. Theoretically I could also mount these on the stock wheels - I will post how things turn out for more info!

What is correct shank length for R12 bolts when using CLK wheels + H&R 20mm adaptors (40556654)?

Are these 25mm enough or need longer ones http://otisincla.com/index.php?route...roduct_id=1029 ?

I never did that, I put the spacer on to the wheel and lined up the holes and used the the longer bolts and mounted to the hub simple as that
