Just wonder, do I need 97+ rear bumper to put on the rear extension or can I use my 95?

Suspension Setup: Tein Basics
Comment On Ride: A little bumpy, much better handling with wider rims up front.
Fender Modifications: Rolled fronts, and slight roll on rears
Any other comments: I'm guessing between a 25-30 offset would not need fender/quarter mods.

fender roll at the back definitely (maybe even a slight pull), but the front you maybe able to get by provided you get rid of the outer fender lining

I am looking to buy some wheels this summer.

The ones I am looking at now are:

19 x 8.5(front) & 19 x 9.5(rear)

Offset : 32mm(front) & 35mm(rear)

with a 2.5" (front) & 3" (rear) lip.

I am wondering about tire size. I plan on getting coilovers and assume I'll have to do some rolling. I want to get close to flush by the time it's dropped.

Any suggestions on tires? I don't mind rolling fenders, but I'd rather not stretch tires. Any input is welcome.

just to let you know, those will NOT be real flush...but flush enough to make you happy. To be perfectly flush when dropped, you need offsets in the 20s...as for tires size, 235 front and 275 would be pretty good...check my sig for the unflushness I'm talking about

So I have been going through as many posts as possible but I need to be sure. I am planning on ordering a set of Axis Widetracks for my 94' SC400. I am not 100% sure if they will fit though, heres what I plan on getting.

- 18x8 w/ 90mm lip (front)

- 18x9 w/ 120mm lip (Rear)

Now on the website it says next to the size "et20" next to both of them. Is that the offset?, because that is the closest thing to offset that I can find on the wheels. Also if that is the offset will they fit. I measured from the hub and what I got from measuring is that they will only stick out half an inch from the fender on the rear and almost perfect flush fit on the front. I have a guy that will roll all my fenders for 150 bucks, and he does it for a living so im not worried about the paint getting messed up. From what I have been reading is that alot of you know what your talking about, so help me out please

yea i believe et20 is the offset....yes they will fit, but you will have to roll fenders which you are already taking care of. So you should be fine.
