I know this has been covered and everyone swears that the 18x11 will not fit the rear, but does anyone actually have a pic?

No need to have a pic,I tried it myself. Didn't work,didn't clear the rear shock. I would have had to use 15mm spacers.

If you're just going to tell me that they won't fit, there is no need to post. If the offset is low enough, the wheel will fit, just may stick out super far.

Yep just from what I saw when I test fitted them they looked weird. Wheels poked out about .5" too far.

I think you can use the front set though. They should be,I'm not 100% sure, lightweight and VERY expensive wheels.
