Wheel Fitment & Question Thread

[BorHor]

Project Kic spacers. They run $110 a pair but 100000% worth the price.

Also. they are not the slip on kind they are the bolt on ones.

AKA:

18x9.5 +12

 

[Sawbladz]

Do you have all 4 or just rears? What size tires?

 

[BorHor]

That was a 18x9.5 +12 as stated already. This is just a test so I know what I can fit in the rear. Now something more extreme is coming up

Nice! Let's see the front wheels.

 

[BorHor]

Hahaha. I wish I can afford the actual set. Actually I can't even afford a pair. There are only "$1000" a pair . I'll get front shots when I have some time though.

So you only bought one wheel? The one that is on the picture?

I'm assuming he borrowed the wheel/wheels from someone to test fit them on his car.

So what are these extreme sizes you are thinking of running?

Very interressing thread.

Mine are : Impul R5 17x9 +20 all aroud

 

[BorHor]

So what are these extreme sizes you are thinking of running?

17x10+24 and 17x9+12

 

[Wiisass]

What size tires? If you're stretching them a little, you could go bigger than that.

 

[BorHor]

Probably going to use 225 in front and 245 or 235 in the rear. how low do you think I can go on the 10's?

heres what ive got, i posted in another thread;

here are a few pics that i said id take after i washed the car. these are to illustrate the fitment in reference to the stock body and the offset/size of these wheels and tires. they are 18x9 +37 front and 18x10 +44 rear, Volk GT-U, spark silver centers for MKIV fitment. 255/35 Bridgestone S-03 up front, 295/30 Bridgestone S-02 rear. the fronts rub nothing, the rears will only rub on the fender lip during hard lateral G' loading when encountering a rolling bump/elevation change up-hill. rolling the fender lip will fix this.

IMHO, Jose has one of the best wheel fitment to date. the new wheels he has are awesome and the pictures posted just don't do it justice.

EDIT: i stole a couple of joe's silv pics.

what are the specs?

On the first page, the pictures I posted were with a 10+18 with a 235/40. I think we could still go a little lower with the car in the rear, but without lowering the front anymore, it's not really worth it.

 

[BorHor]

How much camber are you running though?

 

[Wiisass]

I don't remember, I checked it myself when we got the car back together and was just happy it was even on both sides. I think it's like 2, maybe a little more.
