So this goes out to the guys that have aftermarket wheels. I currently have aftermarket wheels and went to try and change my set up to a more aggressive stance and these suckers just wouldn't fit. How is everyone throwing 10.5' wheels in the back without rubbing? I am lowered so take that into account. Here are the specs I am looking at
Front: Tire (245/35/20) 10" wheel +40 Offset. This fits fine without jeopardizing the fender but they did have to add a 5mm spacer just to clear the brake. Wouldnt fit on it without the spacer with this offset.
(Current front setup is 9" wheel with +35 Offset)
My main question is the rear.....
Rear: Tire (275/30/20) 10.5" wheel +30 Offset. Took a few pictures. The car is lifted on the lift but when it is sitting there is no fender gap front or rear. Maybe fit a pinky in it.
Thanks man. Ive seen both of those links. I know Im poking more. I just need to know what I need to do to make it work. Roll fender? Smaller tire? Camber? Two of those? All three? haha.
You just need a smaller tire. 265/30 from a toyo or Falken. 255/30 from everything else. Either that or get camber kit so you can dial in camber.
I run 20x10.5 +15 255/30 in the rear. I drive on air very low with no rubbing whatsoever. It's a mild stretch.
275/30 tire and +30 is probably the limit for these cars. It was the limit on a few of my previous car before you needed to start trimming bumper brackets and or camber, etc.
Do you have a pic of the car on the ground, shot from the rear to see how much it's poking?
This^^^
When the car is sitting on the ground, the wheel should naturally camber into the fender. Will it be cambered in enough?...Won't know until we can see pics!
