Just test fitting before it goes in for Vertex front fenders, rear pull and paint/re-fitting of the kit.

I have a 15mm spacer as well on the front to clear the JZA80 brakes. Effectively 19x9.5 -13 !

Man, these are the Weds Kranze rims from mem fab huh? Dang, I was intimidated by those rims. Good thing somebody bought those with the insane offsets. These rims + Vertex fenders and your custom rear fender work carries so much potential. You're bringing the up the SC game (unlike some people who bring it down;sadly ).

just a tad too extreme for me but I still like it.

Indeed, they are the Weds Kranze Cerberus II from memoryfab. They were great to deal with. Good communication and fast shipping from California. I didn't pay the big money for shipping so they came on the slow boat.

Thanks guys. Its definitely an extreme fitment. Finished pics coming in a few weeks.
I've decided I'm going to put the 275 on the rear for a little more stretch too.

ok here is the details as of right now

Weds Kranze Cerberus II SMB
19x9.5 +2 MID (+15mm spacer)
19x11.5 +1 (S-Lo) 138mm lip

235/35/19 Yokohama DNA ECOS ES300
285/30/19 Bridgestone Potenza S03

These came mounted already but I am having my 275/30/19 Toyo T1S put on Monday. The shop I go to for stretching didn't even know what a Cheetah is when I mentioned to them. Even the Costco I work at has one though ha

Workaholic were there issues when you had the T1R mounted? They are a stiff sidewall so I bet it was not easy.

The shop I went to wasn't really experienced with stretching tires so yeah it was a pita for them to do it. The 275s on the 11s was really tough for them, the air kept busting out from the side whenever they tried to compress. Eventually they used a rope, had two people on each side, 5 people total to mount the tire. They tied the rope around the tire, had 2 guys pull on each side, and then they started putting the air in. It took about 40 min to get both rear wheels done.. the fronts were done in about 2 min (245s on 10s).

Let us know how it goes on Monday if they had a tough time with it and what method they used.

The reason I was asking is b/c i want to get 265s for the 11s instead of the 275s for a little more stretch and clearance. I've got a lot of stretch up front but not so much in the rear, looks kinda wierd.

roo

i put 265's on my rear no problem....one man job.....taking them off is what is a PITA.

The shop you went to sounds kinda scary....

I have been in the tire bus. for 15 years. If at all possible stay away from 20 inch rubber unless you dont want to enjoy your cars ride and just want looks. I have found that 235/45/18 yokohama advan ao34 are the stickiest out there for real driving enthusiast.

lantz

try ausing 2 atv tire tools by(ken tool) .my guys use these to demount 18 to 24 inch rubber with reverse mounting so the machine wont contact face surface.similar process to diesel tires.

newyorksc

roo whats the width of your rear wheels and what tires are you using

roo

My setup is

Front 18x10+24 255/35/18 (Bridgestone Potenza RE050A)

Rear 18x11+19 265/35/18 (Bridgestone Potenza RE050A)


BTW lantz is right about 20's and ride quality.....but damn do they look good
