SO iv'e decided to paint my oem 18's matte black and slap a red ring around the edge. My question is about spacers and tires sizes, what the biggest spacer/tire sizes that i can put on the 18's so that they sit flush and give that aggressive look? I dont want to roll my fenders and i do want to keep the tires staggered. Any advice/ideas is welcomed! Thanks

 

20mm or 25mm for the spacers, as for the tire i have no clue

 

what would be the biggest difference between the 20mm and 25mm?

 

25mm stick out 5mm further out ?

 

go 30mm all around, and put 245/40/18 and 245/45/18 tires on there. That will be the most aggressive OEM 18 setup. As for the red stripe, ditch it and stick to a single color for the powdercoating.

 

That sounds good, and rubbing wont be an issue?

 

get them widened:

9.5 10.5 and get some spacers 20F/25R to make them the correct offset and slap on a 275/285 in the rear and a 245/255 in the front, you might have to experiment with correct spacers to make the wider tires fit and will DEFINITELY have to roll or possibly cut the fenders.

 

Flush and no fender rolling don't belong in the same sentence. It depends on your drop and camber setings, but it should be okay(but close). I would just roll your fenders to be sure.

 

why are people so scared to roll there fenders?

 

Lol thats true...thanks alot

 

The only reason i dont want to deal with rolling mine is because iv'e never done it before, i dont know how to do it. I know your probably thinking i should just take it to a shop, but the shops here in the valley dont know what staggered means, they told me that the biggest wheel i could fit is an 18". I dont think i want to trust them rolling my fenders. lol

 

Roll Your Fenders
