    Offset And Sizing Help Needed!

    in Cosmetic, Styling & Respray

    Posted

    Thanks for the pics - I'd take the spacers off the back if I was you. The rear look to be a bit too far out. Front looks perfect (+27)

    If they made 9" +27 or 9.5" +30 I'd be on them in a heartbeat.

    no worries mate.

    I wanted the rear to sit out a bit more to the front so its perfect for my tastes lol.

    well here's one for you guys any help would be ace !!

    34 4door, coily's, uras kit. looking at some japwheels 18x9 +26 and 18x10 +15, pretty obvious ill need some guard work. my question is will these fit without spacers. i just dont like or trust them. and will i have clearance issues on full lock with the kit ?

    thanks

    I checked on offset calculator just then, you will have 7mm more inner clearance than my wheels currently, but the wheels will sit 5 mm less.

    So by purely basing this on my experience and offset calculator, i dont think you'll need to run spacers.

    Thought I'd post up the fitment and info if it was going to be of some help to anyone.

    This is what i decided to go with

    18x9.5+35 front

    18x9.5+20 rear

    With 8mm spacers all around.

    Front and rear guards rolled.

    Front inner splash guard cut to (try) prevent scrubbing.

    For tyres: federal 595's 235/40 (tiny bit of stretch)

    All around happy with the look.

    Some pics.

    they will stick out unless you run alot of negative camber.

    rolling/lipping the guards will be needed.

    heres mine with 9.5 +20 (front) 10 +23 (7mm slip on) (rear)

    the fronts stick out quite a bit (need camber arms to adjust) and the rears are on -3(ithink)

    hope this gives you a rough indication on how it will sit on yours.

    wow, that looks awesome.

    ive ordered 9.5 + 35 on the front. going to to need to run some spacers

    and rears i ordered 9.5+20.

    reason being that i want both to the equal or the rear stick out more.

    yours looks great. any shots of the rear fitment by any chance?

    looks like you've got it under control Ang!

    definitely post pics - they are a TE37 knock off, and there isnt a car that TE37's dont suit

    Enjoy

    yeah hopefully man,

    i meant to say i fitted 9.5 + 35 the other day.

    now I just have to wait ATLEAST 4 weeks for the new shipment :down:

    will post pics on this when on!

    Hey matey, i have the same wheels on my r33, well i have 30offset all round, will be interesting to see how yours fit on the 34.

    i would maybe recommend 35 profile on the front, on mine the 40 profile makes the whole diameter just a touch too big, so rubs a bit more and the spacers might not be needed on front depending on how different the 34 is to the 33.

    good luck with the fitment, sure are a big wheel , will be an agressive fitment.:thumbsup:

    awesome, thanks for that info. with the front it did scrub a tiny but that also could be because it was running 245/40 (just because they were on already and wanted a rough idea)

    Hope to get an agressive stance.

    Thanks again.

    is your GTV a sedan? im looking at going 9.5+20 all round'

    Nah mate its a coupe.

    If the coupe and sedan are the same in regards to offset etc; the front will stick out more than the rear if you have the same offset.

    Thats the reason why I didn't go for 9.5+20 all around like your thinking off.

    I would rather them be even or the rear be out more so thought this might be the better option.

    Hey ang, nice buy on the rotas, they should look real nice. When I had the car with gtr rims on I was running 245/40 on 9" +30.

    It would occasionally scrub on full lock on the inner guard. Never had any issues of it hitting the coilovers., I think if you go down to 235/35 it shud be ok, maybe even a 235/40 if your gonna use spacers on the front. Are you gonna get camber arms? I was really considering adjusting camber for my rears as the stock camber when lowered puts it inside the guard too much. Either way it should look nuts man, all the best.

    Thanks maqshood. I was going to text you actually to ask what offset they were but looked them up myself.

    Havent really decided on camber arms, hopefully wont need them but I guess I'll find out when im in the process off putting them on.

    Hoping for it to look the goods thats for sure, now just have to wait patiently.

    Those are some wide wheels mate lol

    How much will effort will i need to make these fit? a bit of time and money will have to be put into it - a good weekends worth

    I know ill need rolling but also flaring of guards.? not if you run crazy stretch and camber both front and rear - prob easier to and more beneficial to get camber arms than f*k with flaring the guards

    Would hicas be affected on the rear? no idea bro

    what tyre sizes would be ideal? 225/35/18 on the front. thats a fair bit of stretch and you will still need a touch of camber. 235/40/18 on the rear + couple of degrees of camber

    would i need to run camber? etc. Oath.

    Hope i was some help mate, im no wheel fitting wizard but i have played with a few sets of different sizes/offsets/tyre sizes on my own cars.

    Best of luck, it will look tough as nails

    Pez

    thanks for the reply mate.

    I ve finally decided to go with

    9.5+20 rear

    9.5+35 front with some spacers

    with stretched 235/40 all around.

    basically id already bought them (rota grids, dont hate :blush:) already but was trying to figure out what sizing to get.

    I fitted some 9.5 + 25 on the front and rear yesterday to see what id be up against. front had a bit of scrubbing with the coilovers and the rear sat inside the guard a few mm.

    hoping to get a decent stance with what im planning to run.

    I'll post some pics when im done for the hell of it.

    thanks again pez.
