Those are pretty close to the same wheel to fender relationship. I'm going to put 265s pretty soon so that would be roughly equivalent to 275s on the ones you are asking about.

That's 3mm more aggressive than what I have in the rear and I'm running -2 camber with more than 3mm of room to spare. You sure you removed the bumper tab?

how about the front? do you rube on every single slight turn?

 

I've never rubbed at all in the front. Not even close, but I'm a few mm more aggressive in the rear due to spacers.

 

Did u pull quater panells or just rolled the lip?did u do any mods in front?
Thanks

 

.5" = approx 12mm

going to a 10" wheel means you're adding 6mm more to each side of a 9.5" rim. now with a +25mm offset compared to a +20, you're moving the rim inward 5mm. do the math and to answer your question....

it'll be a 1mm difference...so yes, it's similar.

 

bro, i'm running 18x9.5 +13 all around with 225/40R18 up front and 245/35R18 up front and have done everything you've done. I DON'T RUB at all. you can't be rubbing on the fender, it's gotta be something else dude. is it the front or rear? some 245/35R18 tires maybe wider that others. i know a 255 will rub and a slightly fat 245 will rub too. usually i go with a 225/40 all around, but i had some spare tires laying around.

try rotating your wheels and driving around to see if the rubbing goes away or atleast follows. also check your fender lining or anything else that may be getting caught up or hanging in the wheel wells.

 

Bump, let's keep this thread going!

 

That Subaru is awesome. I love everything but the panda sticker. And the red 8 stole my idea for the trunk. Only I have no RX-8 on the right. Just the Mazda. .....god I hate that Mazda emblem.

 

^ Awesome! I am going to lower Hoss-05's car a bit more and I will do a shoot for this thread.

 

Nice I say Drop it low 9k, this will now be my second car and not my DD. As long as I can still get over speed bumps.

My wheel spacers will be in next month, they were on back order. Think I may order a second set for the 09. Still have your old spacers?

 

you take some great pics tilt

 

Cool. No I got rid of the 25mm spacers a while back.

 

 

That's the stance I'd like to have...

 

I should be getting my wheels soon 18x10.5 +15 (: and the powertrix coils next month.

 

What kinda wheels you end up going with?

 

I really wanted to go with the works XD9's, but I really don't have enough money for them. I tried to stay away from rep wheels, but in the end, I caved in. I'm gonna get the Varrstoen 2.2.1 (TE reps x.x). I figured I'm not going for performance anymore, so why not? I sense some flame coming my way Flame suit on!

 

Nothing wrong with reps. I have seen brand names wheels fall apart, flake, etc. and I have seen Rotas that look brand new after years of abuse. We all get what we can afford. I went from Volk GT-F's to BMW reps and I love them.

There was actually a white lexus IS with Pink TE reps in Super Street a couple months back yet the "experts" at super street didn't know they were reps and listed them as Volk TE's.

 

Hei guise look what I found


All I could find..

That R3 is Hot~! I cant wait to do a photo shoot with my R3 and 2005 VR's side by side.

 

Looks great Munchy

 

ugh, "stupor street" sucks. I quit acknowledging that worthless rag years ago, especially after this

Thanks d00d

In general, higher class manufacturers will have high QC than replica companies. I wouldn't say the M111 are BMW reps exactly, though they are popular in that crowd. Varrstoen took a 19" TE face and literally copied it to the tee - in pictures they are *very* difficult to differentiate, even for "experts." In the end though, I do agree - people should feel free to purchase whatever floats their boat

Munchy - nice ride height!

dlum - You're on the way to a super aggressive fitment
