I think it could be done 'fairly' easily. You'd need to run spacers to shift the inner part of the rim away from the rear shock and front camber arm. I'd guess at least 10-15mm. Then you'd definitely need to roll your guards quite aggressively...or purchase over fenders.

Will look pretty tough if you don't mind a bit of mucking around to get it together.

For your reference, from what I've heard the best rim combo to slip straight on with no mods is 9-9.5" width with around a +12 or thereabouts offset

I have run 19x9.5 + 12 with 25mm spacers on the rear, was running 245/35 rubber and could have gone up to 255's.

I'm now running R34 GTR rims and 265/35/18 and rubber and 25mm spacers, car drives about 10099993785492569% better. Bloody close to rubbing springs on the inside though.

It would be a VERY tight fit/may not fit, you will need spacers, camber, stretched rubber and rolled or probably flared guards to run the 10.5.

It will look fat as all f**k though.

i have a set of these on my black 260. http://www.koya.com.au/?cars=endless-black-s2c-19 mine are 245 wide and not sure of offsets. we made front and back the same offset between the two offsets on the front and back of the standard mags. they clear the brembo's fine and can be customised to the desired offset at the factory. the biggest issue i found with mags was caliper clearance and in qld spacers are illegal and will get you defected

19x10.5 +22 won't fit on the rear regardless of tire size. Rim will hit strut.

I know this as 19x9.5 +22 just hit coilovers in my rs4s which has same rear end as 260rs.

      rb20de neo +t conversion - boost pressure sensor needed?

      By Neostead2000 · Posted

      Agreed with the rest. Also at least based on my own research, there are no readily available stock or close-to-stock RB20Neo maps that you could download and use as a base were you to buy a complete standalone ECU, and the regular 20DET maps don't really work well so you'd need to take it to a tuner if you have no experience. I installed an AEM V2 on my 20Neo+T and had lots of headaches until I got it to run and idle properly but I've yet to remap it fully. You have to start building up your timing and fuel maps entirely from the ground up; even the ones for a 25 didn't work at all.

      GOT SUM's RB34

      Got some decent progress after work yesterday and also today. Got the ECU all wired and passenger side interior all back together. Kept the wiring up nice and high to avoid people standing on it. Got the surge tank relays rewired and tidied up the pump wiring and cut a hole to bring the cables through.  I found a spare USB cable I had lying around so I decided to cut it up and see if I could use it for my CAN 1 bus. Turned out one of the pins I needed was to the shield of the cable so i cut it up and desoldered it and resoldered to the correct pins.  Had the issue with the powersteering hose hitting the A/C compressor and fan shroud. I pulled the bracket off and modified it to remove the front mounting point which now clears it all. Will keep an eye on it to see if theres any signs of fouling once it's up and running.

      So today I went well outside my comfort zone (again) to replace my valve cover gasket.  I have had a big leak over the exhaust leading to a lot of smoke and smell every time I drove it. The leak was in the rear driver's corner.  The job wasn't hard as such, just a bit finicky and time consuming.  The old gasket was rock hard and broken right where the leak was.  The leaky corner had so much sitting oil in it.  The good news to my amateur eyes was no buildup or sludge under the cover. It all looked fairly nice in there.   I haven't started it yet. I ran out of light and body when putting the coils and injector loom back in. Probs only 30min left for the morning.  I was so nervous putting the cover back on, I must have lifted it 5 times to make sure the gasket was still seated properly. God it's going to be nice to be leak free and not make other traffic light queuers think my car is about to explode.

      Gave the Mazda it's first wash, it will need some clay, a light compound, and polish polish to remove a few swirl marks, but that will be a job for when I have a full day to get my DA polisher action on
