I worked directly with Forgeline for sizing and BS. Your brake kit will have a big effect on BS.
I am running 18x9.5 with a 5.75” BS. 5.5”BS would have been fine for me, as the Kore3 kit is .25” narrower than the Baer kit that Ridetech used when designing their kit. The 5.75” BS I chose allows me the option of running a 1/4” spacer or not to fine tune the track width and clearance to the inner and outer fenders.
I spent months researching BS and wheel sizes.

Matt’s Classics and Forgeline were great to deal with and I read everything I could find from Brett Vokel and Rod Prouty before I made my order.

I can’t say how it drives as I’m not quite there yet. Might get to take it around the block this fall. It seems quite stiff sitting in my garage, but I have not made any shock adjustments and the car is not at full weight yet.
