You too 99probs. for future reference, here's how I figured the 0.6". Hopefully it'll help you in figuring out what fits...

Hey all tire/rim pros. I'm looking at getting some rims with a +45 offset, what size spacers would I need to make it flush with the car? I'm planning on putting 18" rims, with 225/45/18 in the front and 245/45/18 in the rear. Thanks for the help!

You won't be flush with spacers with those sizes .. even if you got 30mm spacers you would still be at +15 which is decent but that's too much space to compensate

Dear Fitment Guru's, I looking at getting a front camber kit(SPC). My front is 9.5 +23 wrapped in Hankook v12's 245/35/19. I'm lowered 1 inch in the front on TEIN FLEX Coilovers. My front left is at 1.8 negative camber, and my right front is 2.0 negative camber. Would I have any rubbing issues if I add some positive camber? Thanks for the input guys.

Can't you tell by looking and measuring?

Too both of you.

COUPE OR SEDAN?

Ip350gt, you can probably go to -1 and be fine. Worst case, pinch your fenders and give er.

They are 18x8..I'm also looking at a 18x7.5 set as well with the same stats as above.

Edit: also is it going to matter that I'm going to lower the car as well?

My problem is that i want the same great stretch look i have in the back, as well as a bit more tire to fill in that MASSIVE wheel gap in the front. I dont know if the reason for the HUGE difference in tire is in hte profile, the diameter, or hell maybe its just that they are different tire companies.

The car will be lowered a bit more, depending on how the newer tires sit. Im not going ot to lip to fender, but i want the same look i have with the rear.

Here is what the rear looks like: 275/30/20 Hankooks

I've posted here a few times. Hopefully this time I get a response

20x8.5 and 20x10.5 on a 2006 g coupe how low of an offset can I use to require no stretching and still be as flush as possible? I can roll fenders but I will not stretch a tire.

245/40/19 & 275/40/19; will they rub?

Hello all, quick question.

I've searched for an hour and can't find an answer to my question. I'm currently running 245/35/19 & 275/35/19 and need new tires. I want to move up to 40 series because at some point I know I'm going to slam into a damn pothole and bend my rims. Also, I am hoping to quiet up the ride a bit with a thicker tire. Will these tires fit without rubbing? Currently on my 35 series tires I don't get any rubbing at all. Here is my setup:

- s-tech (finger gap all around)
- 9.5F and 10.5R widths (not sure on offset, but its the common Racing Hart
RS-721 offsets)

thanks in advance for any insight!
