yes its easily possible...alot of people do it and necessary for what exactly?? what are you looking for?

 

Question for you Blaine....getting a set of Work Gnosis hs202's 20/9.5 +10 and 20/10.5 +5....i'm lowered on megan street coils and tryin to figure out the best tire setup up to go with...setup is a tad bit more aggressive than what i have now but want to keep the flushness without excessive camber (as close to stock specs as possible)

 

Was thinking of running vossen cv3's but I would rather run 10.5 all around for the look I'm going for. Ur saying its possible but any offset suggestions? Possible issues or mods? I'm on a budget but I might go for a deep dish front and back also. Would it be easier to fit a 10" wide in front vs. 10.5? Tire size suggestions? Haha too many questions from an undecided fool! Thanks for any feedback

 

you want cv3's but yet you want a deep dish? you cannot have both since they are concave wheels....

 

Yeah I know I know. I like the deep concave look but would only want to run it all around and deep dish would be sick but most nice/quality wheels are fairly high priced. Anyway still I would like to fit a 10/10.5 front...specs?

 

Hey,
I'm looking at a set of Rays Gram Lights57 maximum 18x9.5 +12mm that are available locally, I have an 05 coupe (no bbk/brembo) lowered on swift springs no spring mount mod. I'm trying to figure out if these would fit without issues, I'd prefer to keep camber within stock tolerances. I guess my biggest fear is that these would stick out past the front fender more than I'd like? I'm not worried about the setup being square, these tires are wider than the stock 17s on my car anyways.

 

Wow, you asked every question perfectly insteadoFAskiNgLikeThIsNcOnFuSinG da *** OuTofMe. haha

Pretty decent specs and great choice in wheels!

You WILL have room for some spacers but you may not feel like you need them, but after a while a 10 or 15 out back would be nice and a 20-25 up front would be solid. All your discretion.

Putting the 245s on the front is perfect and would match best with a 275/30 rear tire. I wouldn't stray too far away from that size as you want to keep them close in overall diameter. Later down the road a 255/35 and 285/30 might be more suitable.

Center bore is always a good thing to consider and rarely anyone ever thinks of it. In this case lexus does use a smaller hub bore than our cars (56.1 vs 66.1) BUT as far as I know, SSR doesn't drill custom hub bores and I believe they are all 72mm. However if these are too small they can always be bored out at a machine shop for around $100 (all four)

Other than that, you should be good. Feel free to ask anything else.



Although that would make sense, it's not exact. The pad that comes out of the face determines the offset as well. The offset could vary depending on the wheel face and disk type. Your best bet is to find out the specs you want to run then sit down with the builder and find out what he can do in terms of rebarrel.



Depends on the wheel, there are several wheel manufactures that call their wheels 3 piece but actually weld the lip to the barrel where as in my eyes, that's become a 2 piece wheel.

Say a set of Weds, they are lip to barrel and a thick bead of silicone is run between them. Both lip and barrel have a flange to drop the wheel into and then the hardware slides through bolting the face, lip and barrel together. The silicone prevents air from leaking through the center of the wheel. But there are multiple way to build a 3 piece wheel. For example, work equips are a sandwich face instead of both lip and barrel having a flange, the wheel sits between the lip and barrel and then needs to be siliconed shut and bolted together.

You can run just about any offset and be fine for this set up. Show me some cars you like and I'll help you out.

Go to tire sizes for that is always 225/35 and 245/35 but you probably have room to go 235 and 255 if you wanted to. I'd recommend a spacer up front though so it doesn't look too weak in comparison to the +5 rear.

Sick choice in wheels.

You won't have an issues with these, the 9.5/10.5 stagger has been done multiple times with the +12 offset. You'll actually want a spacer out back to compensate for the square set up.

 

I need help choosing the rite tire size to a medium type of strech, my wheels are 19/8.5 front and rear 19/9.5 . What do you think would be a good strech tire size ??

 

thanks for the help 4DGS! Would I be able to run a conservative tire setup on these wheels? Trying to avoid stretching/poke, From my forum digging it looks as if I would be ok, but its like pulling teeth trying to find out suspension setups to make sure mine is compatible.

 

You can barely get a very very mild stretch on an 8.5. 9.5 is the like the entry to wide enough wheels to stretch on.

225/35 up front is the smallest you should go and 235/35 out back is a mild stretch on a 9.5.

How low did your springs drop you? Do you know the camber specs for the front?

You should be fine with a 265/35 square set up.

 

another quick question for ya 4dgs 19x9.5 +22 and 19x10.5 +22 on a 03 sedan lowered with springs and rolled fenders......is it possible without pulling fenders and extreme camber?

 

Springs are 1" up front (feels like slightly more, has a 1 finger gap), and 0.6" in the back.
Camber specs are -1.1º on the fronts and -1.3º on the rears.

I should be able to fit slightly meatier tires on the back if I wanted right (although this would probably just further the dodge neon look of the uneven drop)? Doesn't running identical diameters front and back mess with the VDC?

EDIT: any reason to not got for a 265/40? It seems closer to factory spec according to online size calculators

 

I would like to get spacers for my aftermarket wheels to give it a more aggressive look but not really that "hella flush" look that you need to slam the car to get them in the wheel well. Any idea on the thickness I would need?

Here are the specs on my Volk Racing wheels:

F - 19x8.5 21mm
R - 19x10.5 23mm

I'm going for this look

 

Go w/ a 20mm spacer all around ^^

 

Hello
I'm driving a 2003 coupe and it's time for new tires, I have Goddyear Eagle F1s now and I'm looking for advice on the best tire out there on the market. I'm running OEM sizes front and back.

Any suggestions?
