Rocket Bunny Help! - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

ejv_frs · 07-03-2016, 05:28 AM

So I have been researching for a couple months now about going rocket bunny!

The only thing holding me back is wheel and tire fitment. I am considering ESR SR06 (http://esrwheels.com/products/sr06) It is 18x10.5 +22. If I run these what will be my tire options for stretched and "meatier" tires. Also will I need to be running spacers as well? My bad for all the questions, I just need to talk to actual people about this.

Let's see ....... you need rocket bunny help ....... ??

OK, I suggest just forget about a rocket bunny tupperware kit and go with some suspension lowering mods, pick out a set of rims that are "you" and mount some tires that suit your type of driving.

There ya go .......

Little did you know, it's a bunch of robots sitting in front of computers typing out responses to you on these forums...

You will need spacers.

You can run 215s or you can run 275s. Whatever.

You should research far more, because all of these questions have been done to death before by people who know as little as you do about this topic.

The good news is, you can go to a shop, tell them what you want done and they'll build you a trophy winning car like 99% of the other rocket bunnys.

Thank you, Lord Mustache-you-a-question.

I'm assuming you are going for the hardparker look, so why not skip the fake wheels and look for some Work, Weds, SSR's, etc.? Those kind of wheels are the ones that help win shows or street cred or whatever it is you're looking for. You're already dropping a good chunk of cash on the Rocket Bunny kit, why skimp out now?

A RB kit..Haven't seen one of those before !!

If you feel like you must install the kit. Please do it right (weather seal where you cut the fenders or it'll rust out), get wheels that actually fit (with out 1" spacers), and if you choose to wrap it, make sure it's done correctly. There are so many hack jobs on social media it's painful.

Am I right @Cole ?
