factoring in tires there would be 10 mm more meat on outside with his (considering same tire). that means his would still be further in than yours by at least 3 mm. having stretched the tire on 9.5 the difference is probably greater. crazy aggressive! with that said, the rear may rub, but nothing that a roll can't take care of. we just need to figure out the fronts, jorge. lol |
Good Math; I mentally had it about 1cm; but the tires kind of threw me.
I plan to move to 255 or 265 after I kill these. I am not to down with the whole I wanna be a drifter thing; but they came with the car. Plus it jacks the rims up more. |
soooo confusing. :scratchhe
|
It is easy; buy what you want and roll em if it don't fit.... HAHA

SSR D5R Wheels
Repost: (I am trying to buy these wheels in the next couple of days, so any help on fitment would be greatly appreciated)
Hey guys I need some help. I read through all the posts in this thread, but am still a little confused. I am looking at buying a set of SSR D5R rims in Gunmetal from kennychopra17. He says they are 19x9.5 all around with a +40 offset. He says you can fit 255/35/19 tires with no rubbing. So my question is: Will these fit rims with either 245/35/19 or 255/35/19 tires fit well so I don't need to modify anything and they won't rub? I don't want to have the camber adjusted or have the fenders rolled. I prefer to get 245/35/19 tires though. I also have upgraded rotors which came with the car. They are cross-drilled/ slotted. Will I have any issues getting the wheels to fit with these? If I need to roll the fenders, how much would that generally cost? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. |
I think you will be good with a +40; the 245 will be stretched though.
|
I think the wheels would be OK....the tires would need to be a 30 series though to have a hope of being the right diameter..........

He means that the 245 would be a bit narrow to fit normally on a 9.5" rim...255-275 would be better.
|
What he said.
|
But will a 255 tire rub? What size tire do i need to have a good fitment without rubbing? I want to get Toyo T1R's.
|
Will Toyo T1R's in 255/30/19 fit on all four with no problems? Also, how would the ride feel with that wide of a tire?
|
You could probably go to 275-30-19...the 255's would be closer in 35 series...I checked the dia's
try http://marksink.com/tire_wheel_offset/tires.html and pulg in the #'s to see what difference you will have with the different sizes |
the back will probably rub with a 275/30/19 9.5 +40 depending on camber. going with a 255/35/19 should clear it fine
|
So a 255/35/19 tire without anything adjusted should fit fine with no rubbing? This will work for all four wheel correct?
|
I'm just wondering how wide of tires I can get on 18x8s? I've already gone up to 245/40 for my track setup, but now that I'm planning to upgrade from RT615s to some Nitto NT01s, I'm curious if I can get anything wider on them. Any advice? Thanks guys!
|
(If I decide to keep my wheels) instead of selling, I might do a 245 / 35 / 19. I found a set of Avons that I think will do the tick within my budget. What do you guys think on a 19 x 9.5 + 40 wheel?
|
oh crap, forgot to mention I'm running some Negative Camber. I"ll have to double check my invoice to see the specs.
|
For reference, heres some Fabulous Expand Racing 19x9 +24 w/ 245/35/19s

I really think your going to rub with a 255 or higher Jedi. But a roll is cheap.
