18x10 +40 wide wheel up front? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

raytrix · 02-21-2014, 01:13 PM

Has anyone ran a spec close to 18x10 +40 up front? Are there rubbing issues with the tire rubbing the chassis at full lock? I'm looking into Volk ZE-40 and would love to obtain the same concave spoke design front to back. Face 3 concave is only on 18x10 +40 while the less concave is on the 18x9.5 +43 for 5x100. Looking to see if anyone here has feedback on a 10" wide wheel up front and what to look for in terms of rubbing issues and tire sizes to use.

i've ran 18x10 + 44 with 3mm spacers and it was fine.

10"? Man if you're at any kind of low what size of stretched tire and crazy camber and fender pullin' would that require to fit and drive without issue???

On coilovers I assume? There's no way a 10" +41 (+44 and the 3mm spacer) fits with the stock struts/spring seats.

ME = OFFICIALLY MIND BLOWN

What kind of camber is that done with? I mean by picture doesent seem to be any or very little and I guess I can't wrap my head around if you hit a bump while turning how that wouldn't rip a corner of the car a new ass?

Thanks for the feedback. My local shop has warned me of a potential issue where because the wheel has a higher offset where the wheel's inner clearance is closer to the chassis that when I turn the wheel at full lock, depending on the tire it might be touching the chassis and will rub. I just want to confirm this with a few people that has fitted something similar to the specs I posted up. 18x10 +40. Now if my offset was lower like 18x10 +25 I would have no issues at all with the tire hitting the chassis at full lock, instead now that the wheel shifted away from the chassis that at full lock I will be hitting the fender liner and have issues with clipping the fender edges. I currently running -2 camber all around and sitting on a set of Stance Pro Comp 2 coilovers.

I run 18x9.5 +38 with 255/35s with unrolled fenders and I have zero rub. Its close, but even under extreme driving I havent had a rub yet. Im probably going 265s on my next set of rubber.

My worry isn't the fenders, it's the inner chassis tub that you might rub at full lock.

Also I run 18x10 +38 front and rear. With 245s, have plenty of clearance to step up in tire size too...

-1.5 camber front and rear... Check out my members gallery thread for pics.
