How much to just buy the wheels outright? Not interested in tires or tpms.

Not looking to sell the wheels alone at this time, but thank you for your interest.

It all depends on the tire size/brand and suspension that you are running. An 18x10.5 et27 on the front of our cars will typically need a little negative camber to clear the front fenders, but nothing crazy. For those who do not have camber plates, you could pull your camber pins and gain around -1.8 degrees up front. If you are tracking the car, I would highly suggest purchasing camber plates, as they are a very important foundational mod for any car that see's the track. Not only does it allow you to fit more wheel and tire up front, but it improves turn-in and helps REDUCE tire wear. Without negative camber, you will wear the shoulders of your tires out very quickly.

I run 5mm spacers up front to clear my MCS suspension, and the same would be necessary for TCKline, JRZ, Ground Control etc. I have around -2.8 degrees dialed in up front, but I could reduce that if I wanted to.

For track enthusiasts the 18x10.5" square setup is pretty killer. It provides your extreme summer tires, r-compounds or slicks with lots of sidewall support, and of course you get the benefits of rotating wheels and tires on all four corners to prolong the life of your tires. I have done the 18x10 et25 square fitment many times, and that works well. This time around I wanted to give myself more sidewall support
