Just for the sake of being exact, since i have this setup (although depends tire brand) a 235 on a 9.5 has a stretch to it. Based on "calculators" my speedo should be off by almost 3mph at 90mph but 2 different gps reads and driving behind a brand new stock car at 90 tell me im off less than .5mph

I run 18x9.5+38 square with 265-35-18 all around and never rub on anything. I did roll my front and rear fenders for a little more clearance and I am dropped 2.5 inches all around with camber right at 2.5 degrees in the front. I can go full lock without any issue or rubbing under any kind of driving.

Yes, but the stock speedo is already off from the get-go by around 3mph. You just fixed the error.

idk how any of you guys are rubbing. i was just at the track. and i run a more aggressive setup then most. ZERO rubbing. even when i threw the keys to a pro-grand am driver he pushed my car to it absolute limits and STILL no rubbing.

you either dont have the right camber, have shitty rates/coilovers or you're rebound/compression is off.

here is picture proof. all info on my car is in my build thread of my meaty tire thread...





as far as how do you know when you wont rub, well visually look and see if the wheel will clear. i rolled all 4 corners just to be safe but AT MINIMUM you must trim the rear bumper tabs and roll the front flare by the side markers.

This. He's running a 40 sidewall tire instead of a 35. As pointed out in this thread, there are people running 18x9.5 +38 wheels with up to 265/35's with no issues (with the required camber).



Plan on a similar setup myself, once my wheels get here.

My wheels are getting refinished at the moment and it's just about winter here. I'll see if I have any pics kicking around

@OP i run the same wheels but with 235/40-18 up front and 265/35-18 in the rear both +38 and im on stock height... your front setup is way too big as my fronts are just flush at 235s and my rears poke just a bit but to my liking... i have about 2-2 1/2 finger gap in the front and rear but you should have looked into the fitment if you were going to drop it that much... im on zero camber as well. if your going to track your car you need to go with 17s or 18s but maybe 8inches in width... how about you raise the car up until it doesnt rub since you have coilovers

I have same setup as above +38 offset but with 265/35s and the rid isn't too bad to be honest. Def a little harsh with the low profile but nothing that can't be gotten used to. The poke a little bit but it looks great IMO with it

I'm going 18x9.5 square with the F14 wheels. I am going 255/35r18 all around.

I will have the coilover RS*R Sports-i

I plan to drop the car 0.5-0.8" down. I don't plan on camber, if I have to camber... I will go -1.5 degree!

1.Any fitment issues you believe?
2.Which offset should I get? I don't want the wheels to go too out of the fender? I am using the FRS tore calculator to verify meanwhile
No one has the same set up as me here, but maybe from experience you guys can help
