hey guys.

i've seen some ppl run weird offsets, like +38 and so on in the rear

i found some decent wheels
just wanted to know what i would ahve to do to fit them


the front is 18x8 with a +40 offset
and the rears are 18x9.5 with a +40 offset

would i have to roll fenders and relocate the bumper tab and so on
what amount of rear camber would be good for this set up

thanks

please read the sticky at the very top of the page on the forum....

it clearly states

"wheel fitment...."

chiney_dolly

ammm yes i have.... it give general fits.
i know this offset will need adjustment, i want to know what exactly id need to do... or if they will stick out by what amount.....

your fronts should be fine with a little bit of camber. The rears will fit with a good amount of negative camber, rolled fenders, and relocated bumper tab. what size tires are you planning to run?

chiney_dolly

thank you VERY much wash

ammm not sure, was waitin on someone to reply as to how much modification i would need

what do you recommend?
was thinking 255/35 in the rear and 225/35 or 40 in the front

225/40 and 255/35

thanks much thats what i was more leaning to

another question,
been doing some readin and some other ppl where saying that 8inch wide rim wont fit with that offset?

like i said before i dont mind doing modifications to fit the wheels, jsut want to know what exactly i ahve to do

so just wanted to make sure, that with mods it will work

You should be able to get that rim to fit up front. I have 8.5 +50 with a 225, but I recently raised my car to 2 finger gap between tire/fender. I bent the lining tabs by hand and I have zero rubbing issues. How low will you go?

chiney_dolly

ok niiice.
thanks

ammm well no specific hieght yet. i just want the car to be as low as
possible. its not going to ba a daily driver. so really as low as the rims can accomodate

what else did u have to do?

want to be a darlin and explain the process in detail, so i can know when im doing it myself hahaha

Anything for you

17x9 +29 255/40/17

Diameter will not make a difference- it's all about offset, width, and tire size.

For the front- really all I had to do was bend in the tabs that the fender lining clips go into. This is just done by hand. Keep in mind that I am running fairly stiff coilovers (Buddyclub racing Spec), which obviously makes the car less prone to compressing. As stated, I have about an inch of wheel gap as well right now. At the last alignment, I had my car set to stock front settings for camber.

For the rears, I have yet to install. I am waiting on my shop to have time to take me. I am adding an extension piece to the rear bumper to follow the ASM over fenders. I will have the inside of the wheel arch on the rear bumper trimmed, and the bumper bolt relocated to avoid rubbing. I am confident this set up will fit with moderate-stock amount of camber.
