The most you want on the front is a 9" rim, 10's on the back. 18x9 +30 front and 18x10 +18 for the rears to stick out a bit and 18x10 +38 for them to sit flush

I highly recommend JDM concept for a decent set of jap wheels at a reasonable price.

the BEST thing you could do is go and check what size wheels and tyres they are that you have on there now and get out your tape messure to check were the wheels will sit using http://www.rimsntires.com/specspro.jsp which will tell you everything you need to know.

Are the Grids you are looking at the same as the Grid Drift that can be found at driftworks.com? On their site, there's a few different grid designs that they offer. My understanding is they start the drift wheel at 8.5 and wider.

Depends on tyre size also.

ie. 18 x 10" +38 with 265/35/18 would be my choice for rear. If you want some rim poke you can drop the offset to 18-25 or so but you'll have to forgo tyre width down to 235/40 and put silly camber on and lose grip. Fine for a cafe racer.

Front I'd try to get something like 18 x 9" +25-30 with 235/40, or even 9.5" +22 if you want some poke (again you'll have to drop tyre to 225 or so and some guard rolling and remove inner liner).

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
