Finally getting some new shoes :)
 

So getting my tax money soon and some new rims and tires. They are 18x9.75 +20 offset. I realize that there going to poke out out and stuff but im ok with that ha. I want to lower it as well, am i going to need to roll my fenders at all ? or anything that i would need to do to go lower with bigger wheels.

You are likely going to need coilovers to clear the suspension. I am not a wheel guys so lets get my buddy @MisterSheep here to help.

Alright. Yes, yes you will poke. In order for you to go lower and have enough clearance for your wheels I recomend the Tein Flex Z coils. What kind of tires will you be running?

I would recommend JRZ Coilovers or a Penske setup... but that might be more then OP is willing to spend :iono:

If the wheels he's getting are 18x9.75, they're most likely XXR's. So, JRZ is probably out of his budget. Lol

suspension-wise, you'll clear with stock/lowering springs, but the wheel will poke out and you wont be able to camber it in much even with camber bolts. basically, you'll have what some refer to as "mexi-poke" as for the outside edge near the fender, this really depends on the tire size you choose and suspension choice for how much camber you can dial in, or not.

so basically, you need to know what suspension setup you want to run, and what tire sizes you want to mount and then you can find out how those wheels will end up looking like.

Figured lol!!! But I like to start by recommending the best and working down from there haha

I love this pic! You will need coilovers, LCA, camber bolts, and possible UCA.

I do believe this is stock.

And some patience to get it dialed in. Oh, and an amazing alignment guy.


Member Slicvic, has had these wheels dialed in properly. http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=39218

I know some fenders such as the victory function fenders add about 20mm up front to help with the little extra poke from running a squared (mexi-poke) setup like that.

I currently have 18x8.5 +33 up front with 245/35 tires and they poke a little, I have camber bolts and about -1.3 degrees of camber and the tire pokes from the fender ever so slightly. I need some coils or top hats to get that little extra bit, or another set of camber bolts.

yeah wider fenders would definitely help make the wheels flush, but i doubt OP would get $1k fenders to fit $500 wheels. lol

LOL pretty much spot on. with the rims and budget :(

the tires are 225. but im mostly just looking for a wide stance look and not chew my tire apart
