Hello, I'm getting swift springs with 1" drop on front and rear.

My wheel size will be 18/8 +45 front and 18/9 +42 rear

I'm looking for meaty setup: 235/40 front and 265/35

Will they fit? Thanks I hope it does not rub too. Please quote me when replying my post. Thanks

Hi, Sorry if this is a dumb question but I've tried searching but just not sure. I'm looking at Enkei Kojin 18x8 ET40 and my car is completely stock. I've seen someone do 17x8 ET40 but I don't know if the rim size matter or if the spokes will touch the brake... Also, tirerack has this for frs but the offset is 45. So I'm not too sure. Thanks for the help.

Folks, be sure to check out the wheel fitment chart in the stickies at the top of this subforum.

Lots of these setups are already documented in there, or close enough. I mean, if you see an offset higher than yours and one that's lower and they are both confirmed to work...yours will probably work, too.

You don't even have to read the whole sticky, just look at the chart and there are links to threads where people have done this or that wheel/offset/tire.

Of course, there are always differences here and there, but I keep seeing really conservative setups being posted up here for confirmation. Not a big deal for someone to reply "yep that works" but isn't it nice to not have to wait on someone else for an answer?

Of course, I highly recommend starting a thread or replying to that sticky if you can confirm a setup that's not already on that chart. Just helps it grow for the next guy/gal looking for answers.

That's all. Back to your regularly scheduled thread.

I'm thinking of getting Eibach Sportlines for my BRZ. I will be getting 18x8.5 +44 in the front and 18x9.5 +44 in the rear with 245/40/18 all around. Will I have problems in the rear at all?

I am not sure if I want to go wider in the rear or not. Here are my choices, I could use help. I will be running Eibach Sportlines for a 1.4 drop

18x9.5 +40 all around with 245/35 (too much front poke?)
or
18x8.5 +35 front with 225/40 and 18x9.5 +40 rear with 255/35 (not flush?)

Please help i'm very new to wheels/tires and doing as much research as possible.

Please read back in this thread, hell even within the last 10 posts... It was stated by 2 of us and i provided pics, that a 9.5 +38 is close to suspension, so a 9.5 +40 will be even closer.

However, first u need to decide if u want staggered or not. Then decide fitment.

Thanks I just took a look now. you are talking about 9.5 in the front correct? I guess to be safe I will go staggered.
