Buying the RocketBunny Wide fenders for my car. I love the look of wide tires without having to pull the "hellaflush" style to get them fitted. I'm looking at a set of 18x9.5 +20 up front, and a set of 18x11 +20 in the rear. I was wondering If I am going to come into fitment/turning turning up front issues? I am also on Eibach sportlines as lowering my car any more just isn't street/car safe for the road conditions I live in. (Hickville Pennsylvania.)
Please bare with me as I am new to the car modification scene, I have read many threads and descriptions of how offsets work, but I still am not sure whether these wheels would fit.. Thank you for your time and understanding! -Cody |

I wouldn't say that no one wants to help more than no one has experience. I would say less than 5% of actual owners are running widebodies or aggressive offset wheels. Keep searching and see what others are running.

This isnt google...be patient and while waiting do some research on what people with RB kits are running for wheels and spacers and such...
also this thread would be a good place to start looking http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=25171 |

Well to be honest it looks like youre not being patient by asking an hour and twelve minutes later for a response like a child. If you cant be self sufficient and rely on others dont complain about it. Get into the forum and feed yourself the information.

Like a child? I like I said dude, I've been asking for a while so I resorted to here, which seems to be a very populated site with tons of active members... Still can't get an actual response. Like I said In my first post, I am new to being a car modifier, trying to learn but I simply just don't understand offsets and stuff like that. Also I don't want to waste money simply to find out if the wheel wont fit... Which most people have responded in my FB posts "buy the wheels and find it out for yourself".... Yeah like I want to waste money just to find out the wheel doesnt fit. Unless your comment can actually provide me some information, please don't try to insult me because I don't know... Sorry if I am being impatient, but like I said, I have been asking this question for a while now without a real response..... My bad I guess.. Sorry for coming on here and thinking I could get a real response without people badgering me..

yoyoyo for a non hella flush and minimal camber set up
up to +80 front and +100 rear offset http://www.1010tires.com/Tools/Wheel-Offset-Calculator stock offset is 7 width and +48 offset "18x9.5 +20 up front, and a set of 18x11 +20 in the rear." front +60 offset rear +79 offset with the current wheel setup you want to get. you need to get more negative offset wheels or spacers so they dont sit inward. recommended tire size front: 225/40/18 or 235/40/18 recommended tire size rear: 255/35/18 or 265/35/18 |

Yeah you'd actually have to get huge spacers and be in the negative offset, I'm not too sure what you need exactly, but +20 offset isn't enough

So I would need a more positive offset? This is where I get confused... Most people running RB fenders are in the negative offsets... I have been told that running a negative offset would work.. Thank you for your very detailed answer. I REALLY appreciate this, I will use this for my shopping around. You also went above and beyond to give me specs on tire sizes...

Positive would go more inward negative means more outward....
