The TCA028 and TCA029 lower control arms were designed to accommodate the Weld Racing 17x10" RT-S wheels. No guarantees how they will work with an 11" wide wheel. But I would think with an 18" wheel, you shouldn't have any problems.

ok im asking because looking at getting the forgestar f14 semi concave 18 inch by 8.5 up front and 18x11 in the rear, I know I need to find the right offset, but just wanted to be sure.

I took advantage off the black Friday rear bmr adjustable sway bar, with summit racing 50$ off coupon on top of the 15 percent was able to get it down 219$ shipped to my door. Best deal found so far.
