^Whatever you can find for a better price...go with that. they will both be good choices.

If I were you I'd get a little lower offset. You wont rub even with your 265's in the back.

^cool wheel, sizing kinda sucks tho.
|
I *THINK* I'm pretty safe... but i'm looking at:
17x8 +44 w/ 245/45/17s or 18x9 +40 w/ 255/40/18s stock suspension, want to be using it as track rubber... I'm actually worried about it being overkill on grip for a stock 8 on the track... |
You good.
|
Both perfectly fine and not overkill for an 8 on the track.
|
18x9 +40 definitely my choice. 17x8 is not a good choice if you're looking to get any real tire on there for the track.
|
I am trying to find a inexpensive set of wheels for winter tires.
I found a guy selling a set of 16" steel wheels that he used on a Mazda 3s. Will they fit? Or are my calipers too large? Thanks. |
16s won't fit since you have the GT package/manual transmission brakes.
|
Bummer... 17's will though yes?
|
depends on offset and wheel width
|
17s will clear the caliper, but offset/width/tire are also important to know for "will it fit."
|
some rub suspension components so ya gotta double check; but yes, 17's will clear stock gt calipers

Im on a 8.5 wheel...im sure the offset is same as stock but whats the widest tire i can run..? im planning a drop maybe 1" front and .5 back....
Attachment 268890 |
So you don't know the offset for sure? If 8.5 +50, then you should be able to run a wider tire than you would ever want to for the street. I'd say go with 255s.
|
255/30/20? i dont even know what sizes are available for 20's lol
Zumn fix your toe, i know you're not running that much camber. Your inside got burnt up. |
I think i am^ thanks buddd... maybe in two weeks ill buy tires, i am running that much camber... and whenpeople sit in the back its worse..
|
255 will fit on a 8.5" no problem
|
Is the offset stamped or on a sticker?
|
^^^stamped... im just to lazy to take off the wheel since i am going to take them off for tires soon anyways... and the paper work... i dont wanna look through my file folders...
but most likely i am going to run 245 which i know NEO GENS come in ..if NITTO makes 255 for NEO GENS then most likely i will run those.... THANKS^ |
Your welcome.
;) |
^:boid:
|
Why so much camber when you don't have an aggressive set up?
|
The last time I saw your setup Zumn, you didnt have any noticable camber (aka -1.5)
Your tires show much more than a normal -1.5 wear. |
