Stagea Humans,

Just wondering if anyone is running 20s on their M35 and what specs they are? Looking at some 20x10s in a +38 which should theoretically fit, but would like to know what others have. Pretty handy with the old guard roller after all these years so a little bit of massaging is no issue.

Many Thanks im Advance,

Jeff

Yes I agree with Alex I think you will have issues on the inside not the outside, I have 19*9.5 +35 and there is very little room to the suspension I have around 3mm to the strut.

I only put them on Thursday and nothing as yet. I think a few others have run the same spec with no issue. When I think about it there must be more room because I tried on and drove with some 19*9.5 +38 as well. I will double check. I also have the Bilstein suspension in mine if it makes a difference?

Wheels look ok but you need more offset or some spacers!

The killer is the Over Fenders.

The steelwork underneath is the same as the RS/RX, but the guards protrude out another 15 or 20mm, so you can't push the offsets too far unless you start cutting metal or going bananas with guard rolling.

Also, I think they need some more sidewall; the guards just swallow the wheels up with super low profile.

Question for yah. If I run 19 x 8.5 I'm gay aye? Pity I cannot fit wider because I'd be hardcore like you then! IMO on the m35 if its white its gay!

Pfft. My 18x8 white rims look awesome! Could do with a fraction more sidewall though...

Anything under 8.5" wide is not even a worthy upgrade IMO.

And if your into handling, make sure your 20's are not Tempe tyres/ taleb tyres / ozzy tyres specials.

Stuff I could cast a better circle in my daughters sand pit!

Better have bucket of lead to balance the suckers to.

Really a well made 19" is the performance limit.

Anything over your adding to much Unsprung weight and tyres will cost you a heap.

Just my 3 cents

My 2c

First, the one car i have seen with 19x10+ wheels looked horrible. To add, it was also dangerous.

Second, people think buying wide rims and putting Ling Long tyres on them makes them a handling God. I'll take 30mm smaller, quality tyres over china spec any day.

And Christian, maybe you should check out what fits before offering advice. Not many of us are StanceNation orientated.

    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
    • I don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.
    • Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.
