I just ordered some volk le gold 18.8.5f and 18.9.5r and forgot to check on best sizes of tires to get...will be picking up rims in a couple of days...all help will be appreciated.

 

What's your offset?

hey thats the same setup i plan to run. i used the offset calculator and found out that 17x8.5 +50 would work with wide fender front, and 17x9.5 +47 would work with a fender roll and no pulling.

if my calculations seem wrong, please tell me.

i too am wondering what tire sizes we should run.

 

well im running +50 in the front and +63 in the back...hope all can let me know what is best!..

 

huh...

LE28N 18X8.5 / 18X9.5 do not come in +50 / +63 offset.....

A 17X9.5 with 47mm offset is not going to work with just a fender lip roll. You really need 55mm+ to make that work. The tire size would need to be 225/45R17 and 245/40R17. With a 62mm offset you can go up to the 255/40R17.

 

huh...well I thought that was the offset, he had them on his s2000 so I guess I will see sun. or mon. for sure what the offsets are...anyways thanks for all your help!!

 

The highest offset available for LE28N 18X8.5 is +52 and it's rare. Usually it's +47.

The highest offset available for LE28N 18X9.5 is +47. Usually are never instock here in the US.

I think you bought a set of LE28N 17X7.5 +50 / 17X9 +63 because that's the only combination available from Volk. I hope your vendor is honest when selling you a set of wheels.
