Christ, what are with some people and spacers? A quality, bolted on spacer is no problem - not on a daily driven car, a drift car or racecar.

Think about it, a spacer/adapter mounts to the hub the same way a wheel would. The wheel mounts to the spacer/adapter the same way it would to the hub. As long as the bolts is of quality on the spacer/adapter, it won't just "break" without reason.

The cars posted by olsonpg goes through a shitload more abuse than you could ever throw at your own car, even if you track it, and they still hold up fine.

Spacers are not the devil, people.

Hi guys im trying to decide on the offset I need for 9.5 and 10.5 wheels staggered, I want to get the work meister m1s but if anyone knows any other more affordable deep dish rims please let me know. I have bought a rocket bunny v2 kit but not the wheels yet. Would it be better to go with no spacers? will I be able to run a big brake kit without spacers? So far Im looking at 18x9.5 and 18x10.5 with 22 offset and 15mm spacers front, 30 mm spacers rear but thats because I someone here do it. I just want to make absolutely sure before I buy them that this setup will look good.

Hey man these look to me like some work meisters. I would say that those are probably 11s but could also be 10.5s for the rears but the fronts are probably like 9.5. Ive seen someone do 10.5 in the front tho.

Completely wrong size for rocket bunny and this thread. Popular size for stock body. Read through the wheel gallery; you'll find tons of great info.

Good luck!

... you're trolling, no?

17x8 +40 would be sunk in on stock fenders.

Can someone help me decide on tire sizing?

My wheel setup is staggered 18x9.5 -9 and 18x10.5 -19. Im looking to get the Toyo r888 but an not sure on tire sizing. I heard that 245-255 front and 255-275 for rear would be good but I'm not sure. For the setup the car won't be slammed low and I will have 3.5 degrees camber. I don't want the tire to look stretched either. any advice is appreciated thanks.
