ive got some 10 inch wide wheels with a 35 offset and im trying to decide what tire size to go for. im gonna be low. i ve been following input's progress with his 5zigens. im not gonna be quite as low as him so i was plannin on 255's or 265's im tryin to get the most rubber possible without it bein a pain in the ass for fender work. ive already rolled em and im expecting to do a slight pull. i just dont wanna start grinding shit down like input did.
what you guys think??? |
^search forum member named 'thejew' - he's running 18x10 +30 w/245's. He's running a skinny tire because they were brand new when he first got them but he says he could possibly run 265's - i'm thinking that with your setup you should be fine. Some camber work will probably be needed but nothing too extreme as far as fender work.

thx atilla

Will the following rub and require fender rolling?
18 x 9.5J +35 (FN01R-C) on 255/40/18 On all four corners, lowered with Tein S-Tech 17 x 10J +35 (FN01R-C) on 285/40/17 On all four corners, lowered with Tein S-Tech Tires will be Falken RT-615 My guess is the 18" setup above will fit w/o fender mods, but the 17" won't. Thanks. |
^can't confirm the 17's but the 18's will work w/a roll or shave.

So I am guessing 18x9.5J +45 on 255/40/18 would definitely work without rolling, correct? Do you think I can get away with 18x9.5J +37 on 255/40/18 without any rolling? |

The thread I am referring to is the following: https://www.rx8club.com/rx-8-multimedia-photo-gallery-6/got-some-wheels-170788/ Thanks again. |
9.5+45 and +37 with 255/40/18 shouldn't need a roll.
|
I'm thinking of:
Front: 8 1/2" x 19" ET43mm, tire 225/40-19 Back: 9 1/2" x 19" ET43mm, tire 245/40-19 Will it fit for sure? And can I go down to 22mm ET on the rear rims? |
That will fit easy w/o a roll but I would recommend going wider like 255/35 or 265/30 in the rear (or 245/35 if you want 245s). The +22 in the rear will definitely not work unless you want to pull fenders and all that good stuff.

I may have found a good deal on some Enkie RS6's...
However, the offsets are low... I know they'll need some work to be my daily driver wheels, but I need to know how much... Could I get away with just a fender roll? Or do I need spacers? Front: 18x8.5 +22 Rear: 18x9.5 +18 |
Would these fit?
Wheel: 18x8.5 et30 offset Tire: 255/40r18 Stock suspension. |

for it to fit better with the wheel tire size combo what would be the ideal offset?

Ideal is subjective..

ok ill get that one then lol

Just to clarify a bit for some of you guys - if you do the slightest pull you'll need to do some shaving of plastic as well due to our rear bumper design - take a look for yourself and you'll see what I'm talking about.

Great thread.....
I have a question. I have 19' Axes Matrix wheels that weigh 26 lbs, I like 17' Enkie's RP-F1 that weigh 15.9 lbs. Thats 10 lbs per wheel. I have seen the charts about unsprung weight.. Please don't send me there. My question is ..Have you made a change like that ? Can you tell a seat of the pants difference ? Gas mileage ? Thanks David |
R8 Rims...
OK so will it fit, Audi R8 Rims.. >: ]
F P235/35R19 19 x 8.5 R P295/30R19 19 x 11.0 I promise I'm not crazy |
