[QUOTE="Sky_Pilot, post: 16219334, member: 72004"] A 18x9.5 inch rim WON"T fit in the well. The minimum size tire that is recommenced on the 9.5 just so happens to be the same tire as we have factory on the front. (The maximum width for the 18x9.5 we have on the rear just happens to be the widest tire recommended.) Try for yourself to get it into the trunk. The mini-spare that will fit into the well won't clear the front Brembo brake calipers. I went through this a number of years ago. However, I found the PERFECT answer. I had a 9.5 narrowed by Eric Vaughn in SOCAL to 6 inches. Then I put a Goodyear P225/50R18 tire on it and same diameter fits PERFECT in the trunk and since it is T rated as I recall you can still go 100MPH on your spare if you really have to. It just so happens I have an extra wheel I had narrowed by Eric I'll sell for what I have in it. If you are interested shoot me a PM. [/QUOTE]
