****tire wall calculation*****

(if you go too big you are gonna have a bad time)
The ratio number is pretty important. My 265/40 is almost the same size as a 295/35 tire. So go play and figure out your final overall diameter fitment.

(they typically round up to keep things easier)
1inch = about 25.4 mm
1/2 inch = 12.7mm

Hub centric & Wheel centric adapters means fits flush with the hub and wheel.

OEM wheel bolt pattern 5x100
5x114.3 has a better low offset wheel selection.

Hub is 56.1mm

Every inch you lower your car the wheels are tucked in by 8mm (0.314961 inch)

Camber adjustment in the rears is via lower control arms. Any degree higher then 3 degrees will throw the rest of your suspension off. So, trailer arms and toe arms are highly suggested after 3 degrees.

Camber adjustment in the fronts is via upper controls arms ($$$$), top hats ($$), and camber bolts ($)

A bad TOE alignment will eat up your tires more then a big camber. In short, get your suspension figured out!

1st. Choose your wheel fitment you want.
I personally like the meaty wheel fitment sitting semi flush. & following the arch perfectly.
However, the best and most practical fitment is tucked in a bit so you do not have to worry about hitting your fenders.

2nd. Understand Offset.

Offset in short.
The higher the offset is the more it sticks closer to the car.
The lower the offset is the more it sticks away from the car.

3rd. Pick your wheels. Running a small adapters to 5x114.3 is an affordable way to get to rocket bunny wheel fitment. Also, look into 2nd hand wheels.

4th. Pick the correct tires. Use the tire wall calculator listed above. It is really important.
Note: If you are going for the tucked in fitment, you can fit a much bigger tires like 295 (rears) if you really want to.


Things to look out for!
Front wheel fitment! You have to deal with the turning radius. So, if you pick an offset that is too low it will hit the fenders. If you pick too large of tires it will hit. If you pick with the wrong offset you could fit the inside of the car @ full lock! Be mindful.




My wheel and tires fitment
1/2inch drop from stock from stock height
Fronts 18x9.5 +10 mm off set with a 15mm hub centric and wheel centric adapter.
So it's really 18x9.5 -5mm off set
Tires: Nittos NT05 255/40 R18
Camber -3 degrees
Toe -0.3
Caster max

1/2inch drop from stock height
Rears 18x11 +15mm off set with a 25mm hub centric and wheel centric adapters
So it is really 18x11 -10mm
Tires Nittors NT05 265/40 R18
Camber 3.2
Toe.-.4
caster max

My total cost wheels + tires + adapters.
900 wheels
540 tires
adapters 150

Total = 1590 + install

Crap I hate about my wheels. No back spacing. They are in 5x114.3 bolt pattern. They will not make them in 5x100. Pokes out too much.

Cost effective wheels
forgestar f14 super deep concave
1700 + 160 shipped.
Custom to size and spec.
+ tires
no adapters

or

a used set of 5x114.3 wheels and a small adapter.


i'll update this later. But, it is the basic information you need to know to figure out the flush fitment for rocket bunny V1.


Thanks,

Hey Frank! Really quick do you think wheel size 18x9 + 18mm will fit properly front and rear with V.1 Rocket Bunny. I wouldn't mind using spacers by the way.
