I didn't notice a height difference at all but my MPH is off very slightly...approximately 3mpg around 70mph range... Love the rims. I get tons of compliments. Never get a rub with this offset on 20s.

I have a 2002 Sc430. I am looking at changing stock rims to a 18x9 with a 35mm offset (this is a nice set of new rims my buddy has) and also putting stock tire size on. I think this will make me 1/2" wider on either side and also 10mm further out as I think stock off set is 45mm. Will this cause any sort of alignment or clearance/rubbing issues?

Default Could these rims work on my 06 SC??


Hi
can anyone comment on figment of these wheel measurements?

JDM wheels - SSR Vienna Kries 18x7.5/8 +43/+37

  • I copied and pasted the stock figment. Assuming this setup at 18in would look best on coil overs.


STOCK SETUP

Front Rim Diameter, Width, and Offset: 18x8 +45
Front Tire Dimensions: 245/40R18
Front Wheel Modifications Needed: None

Rear Rim Diameter, Width, and Offset: 18x8 +45
Rear Tire Dimensions: 245/40R18
Rear Wheel Modifications Needed: None

Default Anyone running 19x10s on their SC?

Considering a wheel set like this
19x10 on all 4 sides
offset +42
tires: 265/35/19 front and rear , no stagger.

Have not seen anyone in the posts with this setup. Anyone comment!? Yes, I will likely run D2 coilovers. Curious about Fitment . Looking for a clean stance, not overly aggressive.

Default So glad to hear from you

that’s good to hear. Are you in stock height or lowered and if so, coilovers or Springs? With 20s I imagine the fender is filled a bit more but still has a gap?

you wouldn’t happen to have a picture of your setup would you?

click on my handle 'prasha' and view the public profile for the pic.
No I have not lowered, its stock height no coilovers or springs.
My car does not look 'aggresive'

.....I think you could get away with this setup, but you might have to put a smaller tire on the front.......something like a 235

i don’t understand “br the 2”
i have D2s and would say they are stiff or firm. Much different from OEM. You certainly feel the road and have great control at high and low speeds.

Default Sorry meant to write “bt or between” the 2 ...

D2s are “still” ? Or firm . Got it! Even at the softest setting they are firm? Why’d you go with the D2 by the way?
