what wheels? no way to tell what the disks mean.

But you already know the disk, just look at the companies website and found out yourself...

^Work t1s. From what I know the front r disk should work I'm just not sure if the rear would work without spacers

O Disk is Lo disk correct?

You might need a small spacer but even if you do (assuming this is a coupe) you've got more than enough room to run one without coming close to the fenders.

need tire experts.

need to replace my rear tires soon. currently have 295/35/18 and they rubbed the fenders at first until the rubber sidewall got worn down. it is a nitto invo on the driver side, and a toyo proxes t1r on the passenger side.

i'm looking to replace the with hankook ventus v12. but don't know if i should go with a 285/35 or stick with 295/35.

i don't want to go with a 295/35 and find out that the hankooks run fatter than the nitto or toyo, since i'll rub like a **** again. so unless someone can confirm that hankooks run skinny, i'll be getting one size down to 285/35 to play it safe.

Buddys selling a set of kazera 5 spoke wheels. Wheel sizes are 18x9.5/10.5 +32. Will these fit my sedan with no modification? Roll?

Did both the Invo and the Toyo rub? Or just the Nitto side?

Invos run large IIRC from when I had them and Toyos are basically bang on true fitment. Hankook is said to be true fitment, but I find that depends on the tire size with those wheels (much like the Falken sizing)

If you were running on both sides then going with the 285 is going to be your safe bet, but if you were only rubbing on the nitto side then the 295 hankooks SHOULD clear the fenders.

Also, these are the 18s aren't they?

No not really. You need a drop to get them to come inside the fenders a little, you'll also need fender work and a mild stretch.

Yea 8mm spacer IIRC should make them clear with the T1S because of the mostly straight spokes. GL!

Yo Blain, What do you think of boring out wheels to clear original studs? On my attempt to install 15mm spacers up front, the original studs didn't clear which created a small gap between the spacer and wheel.

Any pics of a 245/35/20 stretched on a 11.5 inch rim?

Will the tire fall off when I'm driving? Putting my old tires on new sized rims plenty of tread left, running falkens on them curreny. There was a thread with some dude asking about the same setup but the pics aren't linking properly.

Please help with wheel and tire question.



Hello, I have a 04 g35 coupe I finally wanted to get new rims and tires but I have many questions. I have the car lowered on tanabe springs and I'm getting the fenders rolled just in case. The wheel size i was looking at are 20x10 +15 in front and 20x11 +15 in back. I have a front and rear camber kit also installed I would say my car dropped 1.5".

#1. Are those rims going to fit my car without anymore extra work?

#2. What size tires should I get?

#3. Why are people recommending r30 in front and r35 in the back and doesn't that effect the total diameter of stock total diameter?

Thanks to all that help

Like bore out the lug holes? as long as a pro does it you're fine. Don't attempt it yourself.

I don't think you'll get falkens to do that stretch and if these wheels aren't 11.5-25 then you have no need for that amount of stretch. IMO buy the correct sized tires.

If you had searched this exact question has been answered over 100 times for the same damn Varrstoens... Use the search function please.

1) You'll need the rear fenders rolled most definitely.

2) 245/35 and 275/35. 255/35 up front would also work.

3) Because those people are dumb and shouldn't be offering advice on staggered tires when they don't know what they're talking about!

Thanks I have been trying to read as much as I could b4 asking but i never found out what I wanted and sometimes you don't know who to believe.

Can i go for a more aggressive offset in the front and rear and why are there a lot of people running 30s with the 20" wheels?

I thought 35s were for 19"s, I'm new at this stuff so sorry I'm just asking questions not questioning your answers.

Thanks

You can't go much more aggressive and keep is "simple" Those specs will be pretty flush though.

You often run 30 profile tires on 20s with these car to keep the over all diameter close to or smaller than that of the OEM size.

The profile being 30 or 35 is not relevant to the diamater of the wheel. You can run 25 profile if it fits your needs.
