^Are those winter wheels? If so then yes they will fit. If they are not well...Don't get anything less than 8" wide. It's just not good.

I have stock wheels painted graphite gray and I used 25mm spacers all around. I want to lower the car now and I am nit sure if I would have rubbing (Stock offset +50 - 25mm spacers = +25mm offset right now). Please let me know if you guys think I would have rubbing and also what springs do you guys recommend. Also I have not done suspension work before, is it easy todo myself or would it best to get it done professionally?

A 40 sidewall is too much |
I know they will fit the 8 but will 18 x 7.5 Mazdaspeed 3 wheels hold a 245/40-18 tire? I can basically get the rims for next to nothing and I have a extra set of tires. ideally I want an 8" or wider and lighter track rim but....... Your thoughts?
|
Track rim...You want to use a 18x7.5 as a track rim?
NO :banghead: |
If a 245 tire fit, no? I figured no, but i thought someone would chime in and tell me how the .5" made no difference, haha. Wishful thinking.
|
If a 295 Hoosier will fit a 8" wheel. Then yes a 245 will fit a 7.5" wheel. But should you do it. No..
|
Yeah. Oh well. I just see speed3 guys running 245/40-18's and they say its great but i don't know if i trust it.

40 sidewall on a 19 is typically comparable to a 35 sidewall on an 18.
If you go to a 19" you need to drop the profile to keep the same rolling dia So you would go from a 40 to a 35 all things being equal |

I decided togo with Tein S techs. I think the drop in front is 1.4 and rear 0.8. Now with the setup i have 18x8 +25mm. Will I be good? I dont want to have too much of negative camber.

I am looking into getting some Enkei PKR rims now that I have some cash (not alot but some) and was wondering which would be better to go with in order to keep the stock size tires. I just had them replaced about 3-4 months ago cause my old Kumho Ecsta where showing some steel cord. I really do not want to spend another 500 or more on tires for a while. I am still on stock rims as well. Here are the 2 options I am wondering about:
1. F&R 18 x 7.5 38 offset 2. F&R 18 x 8.5 35 offset I am also considering getting some Tein S Tech or maybe H Tech springs, but not for a while Will this work and if so which one is better to go with? Thanks |
Well the 18x8.5 will look a ton better thats for sure. Both will fit though. It's sort of retarded to get aftermarket rims that are thinner than stock. You won't rub if you lower it either.
|
Hm, was thinking about some 18" x 9,5" with 35 offset.
Anyone know if I can fit 265/40 rear on that without it rubbing? Or do I have to go for a 35? Probably 18" x 8,5" front or so with 225 or 230 x 40 or 35 if I have to. |
You should be good, you can do that in the front too. might run it to some very minor problems if u are low tho because of the sidewall.
