18x8.5 with a 35mm offset bout 27-29lbs using stock tires off my old stock rims

 

Wait...27 w/tires on? or w/out?


sorry, i've been drinkin...

 

so have i so i dont remember very well. I do know that I dont have the tires on yet and they dont feel to heavy to lift feel like the stock rims

 

Eh...well if it's just a weight thing then eh...not bad..You don't plan on going auto x any time soon do you? becuase then the weight thing will come into factor - if you're just gonna drive around looking for ***** and you wanted some new shoes for the car then good for you.


p.s. - drinking forgive vulgarness if anybody's offended blah blah blah whatev

 

nah I always wanted to ,but I have been more into the drift scene if anything, I have done a few events for drifting. So I am not really concerned with the weight since in drifting it is about how you through what weight (lighter can be better) you got + speed + angle + time + length etc etc. I just do it for fun though nothing competitive. Also I got the ***** thing covered thanks though again +1 to the drinking forgive offending lol

 

looking at JIC J force & 18.9.5 +38 im lowered on eibach springs what do you guys think. Ill need a roll but should be good right.

 

you looking at j-force 5 or j-force 7?

 

Plan on a roll with anything beyond a 255. Those rims are considerably heavier than whatever JIC states FYI. They look good though!

 

Anyone?

 

What size tire do you have in the rear? You never said. I looked it up. 245/40 You will be fine with any kind of drop imo.

 

will this fit or will the rear stick out too much?

18x9.5 rear with a 0ffset of 40.. 275/35/18
18x8 front with offset of 20...245/45/18

these came off a mustang...a freind is selling them i want to know if they will work...wheels are tsw thruxton

 

That will fit perfect. Might need a roll in the back. I am unsure because I had 18X9.5 with 35mm offset and I needed a roll but with a 40mm offset on 9.5" you might not need one.

i just put one of the rear on and it sticks out like 2 inches past the wheel fender...how have other people ran this size and they look fine?

 

17x9 +35 w/ 275/35/17
will i need to roll??

 

Did you drop the car on the ground or did you just mount the wheel up while it was in the air? Remember the wheels tucks as the car settles to its normal height. If you dropped the car down and rolled it so it settled and it still stuck out 2" then your offsets are wrong.

Chris

 

yea i dropped it down...they stuck out way too far..sucks too b.c i was getting these wheels and new tires for 300 off a buddy...wish the offsets were right

 

18x9 +24, 225 40 18 all the way around. I'm on megan springs but coilovers eventually. Will these fit?

 

You can either do a roll or dial up a bit of negative camber but not both, I ran stock settings when I first got this set up and it rubbed slightly when I had pp in the back, negative camber solved that(can't recall how much) but a roll is equally effective, this is for the back only, the front is perfect.

 

I have/had 9 +35 with 275s on them which puts me 1.3mm further out from your 9.5 +40 with 275s, on my setup the 275s are FLUSH with the fenders so you should be able to fit with absolutely no problems, check your alignment, 2 inches past the fender is impossible with that offset.

 

with those tires should be no problem.

 

lets see a pic of this. it definitely shouldn't be like this unless the specs are wrong.

 

well the back of the wheels says somthing like et40..im assuming this is the offset? i didnt get a pic but they stuck out very far..at least two inches...again..wheels say 18x9.5 with a 275/35/18......now im wishin i had taken a pic

 

ok i just re checked and my #s were off..the offset on rear is 20...

 

Gonna need lots of work

 

^+1....roll, pull and neg. camber to get that to fit
