I have 265/35 with a 9.5 et45 rim shipping to my door tomorrow. 245/35 front on 8.5. Dropped 1.4"... hoping it all fits.

ScionFR-S · 03-07-2013, 10:06 PM

with that offset i dont think you will have a problem, its either going to rub or be hella flush

itdansharpe · 03-07-2013, 10:08 PM

Haha I think we have different opinions of what hellaflush is.

dem00n · 03-07-2013, 10:10 PM

Are you running forced introduction?

itdansharpe · 03-07-2013, 10:11 PM

Will be. Taking the first week of may off to install!

Tansey86 · 03-07-2013, 10:55 PM

With that offset the wheel will be about a half inch from flush. If it were me, I would have went with maybe a 9.5 +44 since they do custom offsets, tucks in the wheel a bit. Just my opinion im sure your car will look great, been waiting for these wheels on this car.

ScionFR-S · 03-07-2013, 11:28 PM

I would have done that but no way am I waiting 6-8 weeks for a custom one with just a little bit of a diff offset instead it's taking 5-7 days haha

SkAsphalt · 03-08-2013, 02:09 PM
