will te37 +22 fit? by any chance?

hi guys

one of my frd is getting rid of his te37 19", 8.5 and 9.5, all +22 from a g35, he is willing to sell it to me very cheap. but i wonder if it fit my rx8.

as i searched , the smallest offset people use for the front wheel is +29. but i m not sure if +22 will fit in. is that the case i have to put a spacer in, or i have to roll my fender a lot?

thxs

a spacer will make it worse!! hahaha..with a +22 you will definetly have to roll your fenders, not to mention some serious negative camber(-4-3?). It's possible but don't expect your tires to last very long (unless you got money to burn).

22 will not be good for our car. +29 front and +34 rear is most aggresive u shoudl go with that

it will be pretty hard to fit, you need to roll the rear fenders for sure and a lof of negative camber!

i think there is someone who fits a +22 front on this forum but like everyone said you're gonna have to run some serious neg camber

a spacer will be like having a lower offset

lower offset=wheel further out

if you get a 15 mm spacer with a +22 wheel it will be like having a wheel with a +7 offset

+7 offset
not to mention the inner part of the wheels will rub when the sterring wheel is fully turned. and yes we're talking about a -3 or -4 camber adjustment.
