My New Wheels... And Some Questions?
My New Wheels... And Some Questions?
i just received my new (slightly used) wheels wanted to post up some pictures,
the car has been sitting i wont drive it until the stance gr+ coilovers and the camber kits come in,
and i have some body parts being painted in a week or so as well.
they are 20" work T1s with volk black wheel nuts
9.5 front and 11" rears,
245/35/20 front and 275/30/20 rear






its going to be a daily driver, so i don't want to be crazzy low but i want to get rid of that nasty gap :P also don't want
to have to much neg camber and get allot of tire ware, im thinking about putting a spacer in the rear so it pokes out just
a bit more once it get lowered, and the fenders still need to be rolled.
Question #1 i was thinking about putting a 15mm spacer in the rear maybe , will i have rubbing issues?
Question #2 do you know of any good reasonably priced alignment shops that would be good for this type of job around the ..Barrie and Toronto area,

1 - what are the offsets? I expect that you will have rubbing issues with an 11 inch wheel and a 15mm spacer unless you run some camber to compensate... also depends how low you end up going.
2 - move to the states
j/k i can't help there

The parts that are going to be painted....do they include a new rear bumper? If you're keeping your stock one then I suggest getting some rear mudguards, because it looks weird without them. Just imo.
as for changeing the bumper i havent found any style out there that isent tacky looking to me so i have factory mudflaps that i ordered from riverside infiniti, i also have a lip and some other stuff that is going for paint.
thanks guys for the help so far 
i wish i had my coilovers i ordered them 2 months ago vender said they were in stock,
then once i paid they were "back ordered" :$.. so i guess i will have to wait, the car is parked so it sucks not driving it.
just wanted to have everything ready at hand so when i get the coilovers and the camber kits in i can send it off to the alignment.
with a 15mm spacer in the rear it would work out to +10 offset
would i have to run enough negitave camber that it would kill my tires to quickly?
or should i just leave out the spacer?

You can pull of +10 on 11 with that size tire.
lower the car as far as you want to go and run maybe -2 and get your toe in spec. -2 won't destroy your tires, just keep and eye on them.

The above link looks to be opperator error. The spacer should not come loose if it's correctly torqued down. I'm willing to be that the spacer wasnt seated to he hub completely when he torqued it down so the little bit of wiggle room allowed that to happen.
Torque them down to spec, then check them again after about 50 miles just as you would with wheels and you should be good to go.
I have never had issues. Hub centric are the way to go.

+1 on what he said
and like others said drop then measure and you'll know what size spacer you need
