Wheel Fitment & Question Thread

[Poboy69]

Poboy: awesome wheels! Good sizing! Where did you find them?

Wanna trade them for my Hre 545?

Thanks buddy! I waited about 2 months for these and just installed them, no trades anytime soon.

http://www.vrwheels.com/ , talk to Jeff at jdmwheels@gmail.com he made me exactly what I wanted and was very easy to work with. I think they're in your neck of the woods too! Mine were originally gold centred 18's, but I had Jeff change the rear offsets(new barrels/lips) and refinish the centers to Panasport silver.

would it be possible to fit 10.5X18 23 offset it the rear with a 275 or 285 tire with just a roll not pulling the fender?

 

[Korg77]

very doubtfully

 

[gsxr141]

i think with the stock height yes, but if lowered, no. well,maybe. i had 17x10.5's +24-with 275 40's, and they were ok.

I found this picture of some wide saw blades, Does anyone have info on them?

I would totally put those on my car, my guess is they were made

They were posted in one of the facebook groups, I want to say they were widened to 18x9 or so, not sure

Yes. It will fit fine. How low you can go without a pull is different.

I have 19x10 +25 volk gt7 with 275/30, lowered on tein ss and pulled wells.

 

[jt2ma71]

18x11 rear, 23 offset, 275 35 18. No pull, just rolled. Lowered on tein coilovers.

Help me out guys, this is what I have in mind,

Front 18 x 8.75 +20 with a 225/35r18

Rear 18 x 10.25 +20 with a 285/35r18

Should I go with a wider tire up front? Who has pictures with similar specs?

I used 225s on my 16x6.5 Miata wheels, and in fact still am...8.75 is too wide for them. I personally prefer taller sidewalls as well, but I cant talk since I just bought a set of 255 and 265/35/18s myself.

jt2ma... love that pic and stance... both here and in the other views you posted elsewhere!

Schweet!

But isn't 225/35 have a 3" side wall? What do you recommend? Does the rear look good?

Havent installed them yet to check. Caliper says theyre right about 2" tall. My plan was originally 245/45/17 or 245/50/16 front, something like that. I'd say a 40 or 45 sidewall would be better for straight line traction. All depends on what your goals are

Ugh I hate tire math, I'm lowered 1.5 inches and I want a fat drag staggered look but no crazy fender modification. Im happy with the rim specs too btw

Would a 285/30/18 or 285/35/18 mounted on a 18x9.5 38 offset wheel fit in the rear?
