Pic Request: front wheel poke of 17x9 or 18x9 +35 on Prokit, TRD, RCE, or similar
 
Hello,

I am really considering picking up set of wheels (still somewhat undecided on which) that are 17x9 +35.

I am trying to get a feel for what the front wheel poke would be. Personally I'm not a fan of any poke and would rather the wheel sit flush with the top of the fender.

I have searched the form for this setup, many people run this with rpf1s, but most images are either side/angle shots that don't really show the amount of poke or they are on coils and are lower than a 1" drop.

If you run this and are on springs, could you post an image that shows what kind of poke you are working with and how much camber you are running.

Thanks.

I don't have any pictures but you'll end up with a few mm of poke. If you want to stay away from coilover suspension, you could simply add camber bolts and eliminate the poke that way.

Perfect photos, thanks. The poke is not as bad as I thought it would be. I was looking through some wheel posts and someone with the same spec wheels stated the poke was "gnarly" which made me think it was pretty bad (hence making this post).

Thanks again. :thumbsup:

Yeah, I have a set of Whiteline bolts. I've just been too lazy to install them as I don't really have the need right now. NickDC88's pics show the poke and I agree a bit of negative camber and it should sit pretty much in line with the top of the fender.

Post 254 and 258 are pics of my car on 17x9 +35 on an eibach pro plus kit. It is pro kit plus sway bars. 258 shows the poke front and rear.

Btw, on the pics above, camber is zero up front and -2 in back. Alignment shop didn't put my camber bolts in like I asked. They said not needed since zero camber. I'm going to get them on plus rear lower control arms to get negative camber in front and a bit less neg camber in back.

Looks real good. I've been really interested in 720form but I have not looked at that thread in a while. The wheels look great on your car.

Did you order them from 1010 like most others? I have not seen them available anywhere but 1010 and zracing.

Yes 1010
