yeah tires will be fine

spacers are illigal in some states

i wouldnt worry about the 8mm on the rear, just run a bolt on up front

or get the gktech spacers that come with bolt and slip ons to get the perfect offset

Thanks guys for the help, I guess I will look into running spacers on the front rims.(only coz I can't afford 1k for new rims right now)..with the 17x9+38 on the rears I prob have like mayb 5-10mm space between strut and inside tyre wall, so not sure if its worth the extra $200 to shift the rim 8mm outwards lol I guess I will try to find out if spacers are illegal in WA before i do anything , thanks again :)

Ok, so i spoke to my local Ttf store and they suggested that 235/45/17 tyres would be good on a 17x8 rim as on the 9" rim they are stretched and that's bad for traction/handeling in awd? Does offset change if I go down to a 8inch rim? Cheers

Ok last night had the best idear and put some 20X11 + 13 on the rear of my m35 axis but even with the 6 deg of camber I got its still going to need a little bit of guard work

Not 100% about using that 11" wide as don't think there is anyway I would get them on the other end

Didnt you say in the other post you have a wobble in rear end. Could tyre width have something to do with it?

Ok ATM I have 225 tires on both the 8 and the 9" wide rim both 45 profile

So if I keep my rolling diameters the same I should be sweet??

    • List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter? 
    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...

    • It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about. Reliability of everything in a 34 drops MASSIVELY above the 300kw mark. Keeping everything going great at beyond that value will cost ten times the $. Clutches become shit, gearboxes (and engines/bottom ends) become consumable, traction becomes crap. The good news is looking legalish/actually being legal is slighly under the 300kw mark. I would make the assumption you want to ditch the stock plenum too and want to go a front facing unit of some description due to the cross flow. Do the bends on a return flow hurt? Not really. A couple of bends do make a difference but not nearly as much in a forced induction situation. Add 1psi of boost to overcome it. Nobody has ever gone and done a track session monitoring IAT then done a different session on a different intercooler and monitored IAT to see the difference here. All of the benefits here are likely in the "My engine is a forged consumable that I drive once a year because it needs a rebuild every year which takes 9 months of the year to complete" territory. It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about with this car.
