18x9 with +12 offset?? anyone.

Jeikob

Im getting a crazy good deal on some BBS. I saw one guy was running the same size, offset, was using adapters and might have been using spacers. I know ill have to roll the fenders, maybe a little pull, and shave some tabs. I just dont know what thickness of adapters to buy.

R: 19x10 +45 w/275/30/19

Car is on stock suspension. I assume I would have to roll the fenders but would these fit?


Or 19x8 et45; 19x9et45

18x8 5x114.3 40+ offset on 245/40/18 lowered on coilovers. how will it fit? Would i need spacers to make it flush? if so what size? thanks

Here is an odd one. Will 15"s fit and be clear the rear brakes?

Not sure about fitment, but I think you will need spacers. 15mm mabye? 15mm should put you at +25. Seeing as stock rims are 18x8 +50. 25mm spacers make those flush. 15 should be what u need for +40.

I could care less about how the fitment is, as long as it fits but will 15" diameter wheels clear the rear brakes?

Can any body tell me if a 20x10.5 +40 will fit in the front?

I have 18X10.5 with +43 and they fit ...but depends on tire sidewall profile a bit.

The 20's may be OK if you are rolled and you keep the diameter the same...so you would be down to a 25/30 sidewall?? Mondo expensive tires dude

Philip.rx_8

Oh thanks. Yeah I just wanna know coz might buy a vossen cv3.

Philip.rx_8

Oh hey how bout 19x10.5 +35 with 225/40 tires?

I would like to know the largest overall wheel/tire diameter to be put on an rx-8 and where the contact points are when using larger diameter wheel/tire combos.

Hi

I'm lowered about 2 inches on Stance SS. Or in other words, lowered right to the point where there's no wheel gap from stock height with stock rims.

Getting the RPF1s 18x9.5 (either 38 or 45 mm offset) all around.
I would like to run 38 offset with minimal work if possible.
are 245/40/18 tires doable? My goal is to not have such chunky tires. I wouldn't mind a slight stretch on the tires. but nothing crazy.

Need help want to make sure this will fit, 18x9.5 +38 wrapped in 245/40/18, lowered on tanabe gf springs, about a 1.2/1.4 drop and planning on having fender rolled, any suggestions, will this work?

I'm debating on getting some aftermarket wheels. I am not sure if I'm going to be sticking with 18s still or make the jump to 19s. If I stick with 18s it'll be to keep the tires I just bought in the summer.
What I'm ultimately after is making the wheels stick out further than my stock wheels since wheel spacers are not a good idea.

Here is what I've gathered so far...
The OE 18x8 wheel has a +50 offset, so that equates to a 5.9" baskspacing
let's say I went 18x8s with a +35 offset, that would make the wheels stick out .63" past where the factory wheels sit. Correct?
and if I was to go 18x9 with a +40 offset I would lose .01" (going towards the car)?

Are my calculations correct?
