PF-racing - yes, with rolled fenders - depending on tire profile as well.

Rival: Yes, you'll fit fine.

 

How wide can I go with the tires? Will 275/35 fit?

 

Yes

 

They will fit, no problems.

 

not a good idea to run staggered tires on the OEM wheels.

 

soo i've got a question

I'm currently running:
18x8.5 +38 on 225/40, dropped with about 13.25 inches from center of wheel to ground (1.2-1.5ish drop, don't know what stock was)
Fitment is okay, however I'm starting to think about spacers.
I'm running a fair amount of camber (-1.3f, -1.8r) so it's not as flush as some of the other pictures of the same setup.

Any recommendations on the correct spacer setup without a need for a roll? I rarely carry more than one passenger, so rubbing with a full car is not an issue

I was thinking 10mm up front, 15mm or 20mm in the rear... comments?

and semi off topic question:
Here are my wheels:

I'm thinking a 10mm and 15mm spacer with its own studs normally wouldn't clear most rims (since the studs the spacers attach to might be too long without shaving)... however, i see a lot of 5zigens have 10 holes. are those extra 5 (obviously not for mounting) for spacer compatibility?

 

Just go to an offset calculator and try to copy 9.5 +34ish in the rear (if you have rolled fenders +38ish if not) and 8.5 +30ish (a 10 mm would be fine though) in the front. That should look better and fit fine.

 

yeah, it's how i figured 10/15 or 20mm..
just wondering if anyone would chime in saying i can go even lower without a roll.

 

OK:

FN01R-C
17x10 +35 with 275/30/17

Will have:
-S-techs
-D-Specs (full stiff)

fenders have not been rolled yet

I know +25 has run into problems, but what about +35?

 

I'm guessing you said 275/30/17 on purpose instead of 275/40/17? I'm willing to bet you will have to roll the fenders but it will work out in the end. I'm pretty sure a couple people in the 5zigen thread ran that set up btw.

 

Thanks. I meant 275/40/17

 

^You gonna go with the bronze one, or the redline's? Send me a PM I'll get them to you for a good price.

 

No one is running 275's on those yet.

 

Huh... guess it's 17x9's

 

Yay, I haz no rub

 

will these fit on my stock 8? its not lowered. maybe with some low pro tires?

at stock height you'll be ok. Once you're lowered you will need a lot of work.

 

i knew a friend that put some rims on his car which were fine.. but only when he was in it alone.. would that probably be the same case for me? i have sport suspension and it is pretty stiff though..

 

You need at least a +35 offset for a 9.5" wheel....+38-40 would be better

 

 

^Unless you're this guy - in which case, you'll still need some work to make sure they fit that well

 

I'm doing a final check on the offset before I put in my order, I'm more concern on the offset for the rear without rolling when car is loading with passengers and audio equipments. Originally I have picked +42 for the rear but I'm having 2nd thought. I think front is ok and it is the lowest offset they have.

For the tire, is 255/35/19 too wide for the front? I don't want any heavy feeling during turn or make the steering feel heavier.

F - 19x8.5 +35 (255/35/19)
R - 19x9.5 +35 or +42 or +45 (255/35/19)

 

IMO - stick with 245's for the front.

the rears are fine at +35 w/255 tires.
