Will 18.9's wheels fit a dropped TY

[93 Ty]

Hey guys, thinking about buying a set of AFS wheels off ebay. Just want to clarify a couple of Q's before buying. My ty is dropped 2in front and 3 rear, will the wheels have any clearance problems (hitting cladding etc..) and also the wheels are 56mm offset all around. Do I need to request different offsets for the rear. 56mm for front and 50mm for rear, right? Anyone have pics would be great.

Yes. they will fit without any clearance problems.

I'm assuming you mean 18X9.5's

56mm in the front will stick out 4mm from stock, and 56mm in the rear will stick out 1.4mm from stock with a 1" spacer/adapter and will stick out 7.75mm with an 1 1/4" spacer/adapter.

Camsty, so let me get this straight, how much will the rear still out without any spacers with the 56mm offset. With the 50mm offset will they barely stick out? thanks, Steve

They will stick in the wheel well 24mm without any spacers/adapters.

50mm offsets will stick in 18mm.

You would need 18X9.5 with a 32mm offset(or as close to 32 as possible) to use on the rear without any spacers/adapters.
