Saw these on CL and asked the guy about their size, he said they were 18x10 ET44, but I never heard of that size for this model wheel -- could he be wrong or did they simply make this size in the past and just no longer do?

More importantly, would this size work for rears on our car? If so, does anyone want to go in on them with me (split them - 2 each).
Fronts are readily available in 17x8 ET48.

What size rear wheel did FF use on their track car (I believe they used this exact model wheel)?

Those are most likely 18x8 +48 5x100 for $799 as mentioned in his post.

Rota does make 18x10 with a 35mm offset but I don't think in 5x100 also there is no way those are 235s on a 10" rim

10's are too wide

If the Rota Torque wheel was used by FF (which it appears to be based on the pictures), what was the rear wheel size (18x9???) and offset?

Meaning, I don't see this wheel in 18x9 for a 5x100 bolt patter, they only come in 18x9.5 with a 35ET (will this ET work, especially at 9.5 width), or 18x8 with a 48 ET (while the ET is good, will a 255 tire fit on that sized rim -- it seems tight). Thus I am confused as to what FF did exactly -- anybody know?
