You also think staggered means having the front wheels sunken though. ^

^lol

whatsup guys i got work xt7's 18x9.5 +30 all around i dont know what would be the best tire size to run i was thinking bout doing 245/40/18 all around but is there a better combo for better performance and how much fender problems will i be running into
|
I don't have Works, so I won't post any pics. You did try to tell me that staggered means having the front wheels not flush. Don't deny it.
Look at how many posts you have and then look at how many I have in just the Will It Fit thread. I know what I'm talking about lol. |

http://www.flickr.com/photos/j863562...7623744260352/ Invo are pretty wide for 245s I think. I had to roll the rear fenders and trim some of the plastic off the bumper tab. Not a bunch of work really. If you aren't lowered, the wheels are gonna stick outside the fender. It's basically the setup you are asking about. 2-3mm is almost nothing. |
If I could change my order, you think I should go 18 x 9.5" all around instead?
And get 245/40 ? |

Well I will make a call tomorrow to see if I can still change the order.
I am getting my thoughts change... many different ideas from different people. To be honest, my original staggered setup is bad? |
Also want to point out that I am 100% street and daily drive.
I will not go to the track, in the foresee future anyways. Thanks again |

I've heard from people that they don't feel like their steering went to crap, but obviously you increased the rear contact patch a lot more than the front. It's gonna feel different.
Another way of putting it is that staggered is not necessary or good. It's not bad necessarily either. Is there any reason why you wouldn't want the front to have a concave face as well? |
About the concave, I believe the front are Semi-concave and the rears are deep-concave with the same offset. Got that from the spec sheet.
|
Look up pictures....they aren't very concave unless 9.5 wide

this is semi-concave, some might hate it, but personally i don't think i've got am aggressive enough kit to go with the full concave look. and kenken, yes and no, some offset overlaps each other (concaveness-wise) but yeah, check the spec sheet to see which ones are concave and which one's flat, or which ones are in the middle. fyi j8635621, evo x has 8.5 stock wheels wrapped in 245 rubbers. not saying you can't run 245 on a 9.5, but is it better? idk |

You sad your fronts are tucked in too much ok And yes I said I like the staggered look but what I was trying to say was I like the rears pokeing out more than the fronts to excentuate the rears to make them look fatter. OK so I fuckin know what staggard means and your post # obviously reflects how much time you have on your hands to complain about nonsence ok. I apologize but reading it sometimes doesn't sound as good when your explaining it in person. So that comment really ticked me off

That Evo thing doesn't really have much to do with it. There are reasons to have 285s on an 8" rim and there are reasons to have 245s on a 9.5". It all depends on what you want to accomplish. 245s on a 9.5 give more responsiveness for example due to tighter sidewalls. |
Dezau, I would like to know what is your setup.
Also is your car dropped? |

Ok My fronts are tucked? OK lol Nice defense OK
|
lol guys
the only thing j is saying is that staggered means the wheel sizes are different it doesnt really have anything to do with either wheels being tucked. you could have staggered and both be flush, which is the case on most cars that actually put power to the ground and need wider tires in the back |
Mazda RX804 made me LOL at his sheer stupidity. Don't post on this forum if you can't take criticism and other people's opinions lightly.

Man, you're such an idiot. Fuck. Learn how to read. I said that's what you said to my car (I didn't say anything to your car:confused:). My god. I'm surprised you can type let alone read.
I took the liberty of doing some proofreading on your last post though. Hope you don't mind. More to the point http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:A...aFyXaxQrx_&t=1 |
