Looking at the Forgestar F14's - 18×8.5 +50 square with 245/40's

I don't see an issue with the rear fitting at all, as my fenders are rolled and tabs are relocated. The fronts are going to be a different story though. I understand they will need to be rolled and have some camber added in to fit.

Will the camber be over 2.5? From what I can tell, this rim on the front will be like adding a 15 - 25mm spacer onto the stock wheels.


I like the idea of being able to rotate tires. If this setup seems like too much of a pain, I'll end up running the rear AP2 V2's square with spacers, possibly 255/45's instead.

 

Tire will be too tall but that width and offset would be fine. The 245/40/18 will be 1'' taller than stock. Look at 245/35/18 or 255/35/18 sizes.

 

Your right on the profile of the tire. I was thinking that 45's were stock and not 40's.

 

Fronts shouldn't need that much camber. I have 17x9 +43 front with a 245 and just have 2 degrees of camber up front. Fenders rolled ans slightly flared.

 

Sweet, this setup will be easy then. Thanks for all the help!

 

here is an 18x8.5 +47 with 255-35-18 on the front, camber was about 2.5 front and rear


and one of the rear

 

Looks meaty, got any side shots? Might have me sold on 255's


Maybe this is it?

 

yup thats my car, and another crappy photo

 

Looks good though. I saw a picture of the original 285's that came with the rims, that was insane.

 

Someone before had 285's pinched on those 8.5" wheels?
