Moar low offset and moar low

 

well im looking at a set of volks gt-c 20x8.5 +26 fronts and ill put a spacer on and the rears are 20x10.5 +22 ...

still trying to figure out everything to fit them on the rear without crazy modifications and wild camber ... i really dont want to go more then -3 or -3.5 cause i DD my car 50 miles a day to work lol

any help blain ??

 

Stay away from those.

8.5 Front is terrible to stretch on unless you're bagged.

If you did do those wheels.

25mm up front with 215/30 (toyo)

rears, runs a 245/35 (265/30 if you wanna keep em 30s) -3 and slightly pulled. If you want to totally dodge the pull and just run em flat, just stretch more in the back (say 235)

 

im looking for wheels for about 2 right now with or without tires IDC ... i hope to make a purchase within the next few months ...

 

Go for the classic 9.5 10.5 stagger. It makes the tires easier to find and you can use cheaper tires.

Get an account on club lexus and VSC (vipstylecar) and skim the marketplaces every so often. You'll be able to find something no problem for under 2k.

If you're ever curious if something is gonna fit or what you need to do make them fit just send me a PM or message me on facebook.

Oh, and don't be scared of fender work

 

only bad thing is on the rear fenders , i had them cut not rolled .. i have about 1/8'' left on the lip .. i know i know WHY ?? i was a n00b lol i i would love to do 9.5 front and 10.5 rear.what offsets should i keep my eyes out for ??

 

Heat em up and start dollying them round.

You're actually set up better for a pull now since the majority of the time pulls go wrong is because too much metal is against the fender once its rolled. You having 1/8" is going to mean less resistance when the pull starts.

 

hmmm.. well i have access to a roller :-) so i could give it a shot.. i pretty much just put the roller on the 1/8'' lip and roll that ??

i want to find wheels first and figure out tire sizes then ill pull the fenders last

 

^ exactly what to do.

Don't fit wheels to your car, fit your car to your wheels.

 

what offsets should i look for ?? 9.5 and 10.5 i don't want a big poke but i want the rim right outside the fenders front and rear

 

Lower the offset in the front the smaller spacer your gonna run. Volks rarely come in anything less than +18 on a 9.5 so you'll need minimum 10mm spacer front.

the +22 +24 range is pretty safe and super common. You can always add a 5mm spacer later if you want to stretch more/pull more.

Final offsets aim for roughly +10 on a 9.5 and add the offset difference for the rear (in a +10 situation and natural camber that's +22)

 

Couldn't have said it better myself Blain, great advice.

 

*lurks in background writing down specs*

 

That came out pretty good. I'll need to fix the color a bit though.


None of the ones I took with the D200 were quite right. I didn't have the speedlights kicking enough light.
Glad to see we got some with yours.
BTW, that needs to be cropped a bit, you can just barely see Dennis holding the flash.

 

just wanted to say thanks to Marcus,Blain,Chris for all the help and i have made my decision !!!!!!!!

im ordering my tires this week " general UHP " top secret lol and hopefully but end of this month i will have a WHOLE new stance ... i will be updating this as the time comes with tons of pictures

offsets will be unknown as of right now but im aiming low for right now.. Im going to be test fitting a few spacers once the tires get put on to get the specs dead on PERFECT and dropping the front to around 24''-24.5'' and the rear will stay what it is now

I CANT WAIT !!!
