matt let's radius your fenders and run 20's :P

 

Ftw!

 

vip :]

 

soooooo sick!!!!

20s with the vertex bodykit!!!!!! ooooohhhhhhh man!!! that **** would look amazing!!!

 

i've been MIA like crazy on this forum...

18x9.5 +13 (+38 with 25mm spacers). 255/35R18. rolled front and rear.

 

Here are some action shots of the 8 with some Volk Gram Lights 17x9.5 +15 running KHUMO V710 245/40/17

 

Im_DANomite: nice to see you back! i like the new look btw



TH: nice to see those wheels gettin' put to use! What did you think? On one pic it looked like your car was about to tip over!

 

nice danomite

 

As low as you want? It depends on how much work you want to do on the inner fender and how wide a tire you want to run. A few posts up is 9.5 +13 with 255/35 so gauge your idea off that.

 

damn TH those tires look huge.

 

Whats the most aggressive I can go for a offset on a 19x10.5

I saw way back in this thread someone ran the 19x9.5 +17 in the front and 19x10.5 +24 in the rear. And I guess he added 5mm spacers.

Is that the most aggressive anyone has done for 19's

I might be getting a amazing deal on Forgeline's and I wanted to get the VR3P's but I want to get the sizes and offsets perfect (decent amount of poke and a big lip)

Need Help on Front and Rear rim sizes and offset suggestions. PLEASE HELP!

If you are wanting 19x10.5 all around, I would go with a +30 offset and work from there with spacers. If you are feeling a little ballsy, go with +20 or +25 and make them fit. Probably need something in a 255/35 or 235/40.

 

the 17's ( which is the opposite of most people do... look pretty freakin awesome. Had a lot of compliments on the setup.

I love it...car felt so much more alive with the lighter and smaller setup. Currently the car sits about 2 inches lower than in those pics. Its way too low....lol. I am setting the car up for a photo shoot with Dsport magazine...will keep you guys posted on that.


Only tiped over twice...it was a good day at the autoX...

I want more tire though...ha ha. With the 245 wide Khumo V710's the grip was phenomenal...but i think i will be going to go with a 275 rear in same compound to get more grip from the back. However I am kinda uncertain with a staggered feel of the car. But with the power I think it will be more good than harm.




thoughts on staggered Front 245 and Rear 275 on the same 17x9.5 +15 all around wheels?

 

No need for stagger.

 

Whats up guys. Check it I've been lookin at wheels for a minute. But I'm at a cross road. Any of you know some good sites/forums where I can mabye find a good deal????

 

Keep in mind he's turbo, a little more rubber in the rear may help keep it in check.

TH, looks great!

Those horrible side effects of low offset wheels must have hurt your time by about 10 seconds! [/sarcasm]

 

^forgot he turboed.

 

ha ha...in this case I do need it.

I know people ran 275 up front with some work...so maybe I will do 275 all around.

Yeah the added power is why I am considering the 275 in the rear...again just don't want to destroy the neutrality of the car that I get with the non staggered setup. But getting on full throttle early out of the corners makes me fight the rear end a bit. Sideways is fun...but slow.


Naa didn't feel anything bad...I figure I would if I had another similar setup that I can put on and compare. Overall it was great!!! finished first in class and almost FTD. It wasn't warm enough to get the full potential of the slicks but once they warmed up it was insanity!!!

I wouldn't expect you to really, other factors are SO much more important with re: to car feel.

There are tons of people out there that claim one will have to put up with so many downsides but when it comes to honest application, those truly effected are an absolute minute group.

Anyways, congrats on making that work, keep up the driving

 

yeah buy mine

 

i figured id bump this thread with a new pic since no one has posted anything here in over a week
