That's 9.5.
If I order grids they'll be 8.5 and not as dished
I have just done a stock order for the Forces in 9" wide as they do still have a concave

It would be very disappointing if they didnt have the concave look, do you know of anything to fit the Escos with a concave look that does not have multi spokes?
Thanks

The problem is due to strength and desing of wheel and brake clearance. An 8.5" wheel will only be able to have a maximum concaved centre of about 25mm and the centre needs to be flat around 130mm in the centre so has a step of about 25mm too.
A 9.5" wheels can imediately have an extra inch meaning a bigger concave.

Will fit the rear, but you'll struggle on the front IMO. 9s with 255/35 tyres only "just" fit on the front.Mike Rainbird

Nordschleife, there's only two barriers to worry about - the ones on the left and the ones on the right.

8.5 x 18's
Perfect for track and tracklook, but no concave.
