You guys act like my car will spontaneously combust and is an undrivable and a ruined vehicle because of this. You're really making way too big of deal out of essentially nothing.

Nice ninja edit, no big deal. Good luck.

All I did was remove my sarcastic comments that you guys seem to get butt hurt about.

Yet, ironically, it's ok to call someone's specs those chose for their own car "terrible".

This meat is too salty

Lust · 09-10-2015, 08:22 PM

Finally meaty. Sorry for poopy shots but it will have to do for now. Taken after a detail.

Setup:

TEIN Street Flex Coilovers
SPL Rear LCAs
Volk TE37SL Pressed Double Black 18x9.5 +40
Michelin Pilot Super Sport 265/35

Current camber f/r: -2.9,-3.7
Caster front left: 5.3
Caster front right: 6.1
Front toe: 0
Rear left toe: 0.12
Rear right toe: 0.09

Planning to get another alignment to pull some of the rear camber out.

AZ_Racer_1 · 09-11-2015, 03:36 AM

17x9 +35 rpf1 in black
255/40/17 Sqaured
No rub except at full wheel lock and it's only a slight rub
Lowered on coils, 2in drop all around

Sorry to be that guy but I searched and got no results and didn't feel like sifting through 70 pages of this forum to find an answer. But here goes,

What is a good "meaty" tire size for a 18x8.75 wheel? Such noob. Currently on 17x7.5 with the stock tires. Looks whack.

Any other photo's? Side shots?

I'm looking at running the same tire/wheel combo on my WRB.

CrispyCheddar · 09-17-2015, 06:02 PM

I'd say a 245 or a good 255 width would be a decent size I'd say. Depends on the tire as well. Some have stronger sidewalls than others and this allows for wider tires to fit on wheels a little narrower than what other tires need.

Anyone have any rubbing issues with 18x9.5 +38 w/ 265/35/18 (not sure if the +2 offset will make any difference).

Lowered @ 2"-3" (or just until no wheel gap)?

Corrected metrics*

No, that offset should not make any difference. 2mm is only a few sheets of paper worth of thickness.

However, the 2 to 3 foot drop may pose a larger issue
