I just picked up a new set of wheels. Rears are 16mm more aggressive than my Rezax.
18x10.5 +2 and 18x12 -16. We'll see how this goes. lol

 

oi mang - you're ignoring!


please answer.

thanks

 

If you looked around you would see that most people close to a 9.5 +15 or 20 use a 245/40 unless they don't actually drive their cars. Gonna need some fender work, though.

 

Well that's an embarrassing quote you found from me. Dammit.

 

haha, well I have a problem now.
cars at the workshop they're fitting 245/40's as per the recommendations from here.

wheels dont fit, side indicator light sits on the tyre. Fender roll wasn't enough had to cut bumper tabs etc too. So shop has to raise height of car. Shops comment was slimmer tyres would've been much better idea

 

my car was slammed with 265/35 on 18x9.5 +23 and I didn't have to trim much of the side marker tab at all. 245/40 required no work on the side marker tab.

 

you're right man

Turns out they had ordered the wrong size and were trying to get it to fit on the car all day, cutting things grinding things, raising the car, etc. until I find out they had put on 245/45s!!!

They must have misheard me when I ordered 245/40's but unsure how as I repeated it 20 times - in any case.. day nearing end they agree to swap it for 235/40's which I'm more than happy with the look and feel off.

For anyone future reference
18x9.5 +23
with 235/40's

Fits with fender roll (may not have even been needed depending on low)
Car isn't slammed as low as it can go anymore in the pictures

 

That's a good lookin 8

 

Looking to buy a set of wheels, would these work ?
Stock height
Enkei RP03 18x9 +18

 

Would look like crap

 

18X9.5 All around
15mm offset


Having trouble finding non-powder coated white rpf1s

As for the Tires anything that will make these look / fit better, in need of new tires.
-Everything is stock as far as brakes and suspension goes.
- will it fit? :O

 

25mm spacers would make those wheels go out to a -10mm offset. Stock is +50mm. Do some searching on offset to understand how this works.

 

I did, must have looked at the diagram oppositely, thanks.

 

Awhile back I had f & r 18x10 +25
Tyres f 225x40 r 235x40

Cops hated it down here. Actually I hated it too, rolled guards, grind off tabs etc and still rubbed when driving into driveways.. Looked tuff tho..

 

And the rear

 

Oh I forgot, was running twin super streets too..oops my bad

 

Looks dumb as hell. :/

 

How so?

Tyre stretch? (i did try my 255s but the guards needed modding)

Everyone round here loved those rims.

 

not low enough, unnecessary tire stretch, tire stretch period, etc etc

Plenty of people (myself included) have run more aggressive setups than that so please don't start posting excuses.

 

My apologies to the wheel gods for not reading 406 pages of aggressive wheel fitments, at least Advan rsd 18x10 look a hell of a lot better than those boring 5 spokes u got, but hey this thread was never meant to be an "aggressive wheel competition" thread, or was it? ****

 

Now my feelings are hurt.

 

Haha I doubt that

 

to many pages not trying to spend a week searching whats it gonna take to fit F 19x9.5+25 R 19x10.5+25 with f 225/40 r 245/40

 

I don't even know what a "****" is.

 

Any one done 18x11 (square) ET+15 yet?
