Who mounts the wheels and tires is not as important as how much more would it cost in either scenerio. In other words if its cheaper for it to be shipped directly to you then do it. Chances are it will be because you will have to pay for shipping again once Autoglitz is done mounting them to then ship both items to you.

 

Yeah i plan on just having the wheels sent straight to me. It just makes more sense to have one shop do all of it and pay for shipping once.

 

Just ordered a set! can't wait for them to get here!

 

Welcome to the club!!!


Now anyone with a Titanium Gray Rx8 and GunMetal Forgestars...Your not allowed in Florida! (Ahkmed the Dead Terrorist voice) I KILL YOU!!!

 

Ha Ha I feel the same about my VR and gun metal.

 

But I was the first! At least I hope so I created the thread...LMAO!!

 

What finish and size did you order?

 

I'm the only person with F14 in South Australia!! and quite possibly the only Titanium Grey RX8 and Gunmetal F14 in whole of Australia

 

I got them in 18x10 +42 in gunmetal.

 

Cool, can't wait to see 'em.

 

Good stay over there!!

...or I may be forced to

 

I have 255/40/18's to put on, now I am wondering whether to go with +5mm or +10mm in the rear? What do you guys think? Will a +32 work with a -1.9 rear camber? Anybody try spacers with their +42's yet?

 

It is my plan to run 10mm spacers all around with my +42's. I am expecting just a bit of rubbing with my 265s on... then again after this engine and SC install I may just keep it at +42 and run 285s all around.

why run the 255/40s? a bit tall. You should have no issues with rubbing using 5mm spacers unless you are lower then 13"s from center rim to lower fender.

 

I did it because of a bodykit. I like the way Vlaze and thejew89's cars' look with the 255/40 on a 18X10, albeit, they are running high 20's offset and a lot more camber. I really like my current alignment and don't won't to adjust my camber any more. I am pretty confident that +37 will be fine in the rear, but since my rears are folded up like an envelope and the bumper tab is gone, I am trying to see what I can get away with, and curious to see what this combo looks like at +32 My 285's will be up for grabs btw, when I get my 255's on if your interested.

 

Right on! whats your current ride height set at? with the five mm spacers you will not have trouble rubbing unless you are real low.

PM me info on tires so we dont wreck this thread.

 

PM'd

 

So guess what i got today...

 

Nice. When you putting them on? I wanna some some pics

 

It will be another couple weeks till i put them on. I will post for sure though.

 

18 x 10 +16? Holy ****.

 

It's a misprint. I freaked when i first saw it.lol

 

With that kinda offset you'll look like your driving one of those Mexican low riders...You'll be a Mexican't

 

OK guys in the near future I will be putting on my 255/40/18 Toyo T1R's. Do you guys think it will be sunk in really far? I am hoping with the concave rim it won't look too bad at +42 with the 18X10.

I took the advice of Vlaze and his setup because of the Tsunami kit. I am going to run a similar body kit and have the crap roads and hills to deal with.

When Vlaze first put on his rims he was at 26 1/2" rear and 26" front (see picture). I am currently at 25 15/16" rear and 26" front. I am unsure of his camber specs in the photo. I do know that he has a +28 offset but I have the +42.

As a side note I will be installing D-specs as well, which may drop it a little more.

My camber is -1.9 rear and -1.6 front, and my rears are rolled and shaved. I am thinking I may have to space this thing out at least 5mm or maybe 10mm in the rear.

What do you guys think?

 

So I got them on today...

 

love it usafrotard, how do you like the handling? I know mine made a big difference. BTW what are your alignment specs?
