Tires may be too tall and rub the inner fenders when you turn with spacers. Also roll fenders and trim the rear bumper tab. I'd suggest 245/35 instead to get rid of the first part and 15mm spacers since you aren't very low.

Sweet, glad somebody bought Sifu's wheels. If you want to add the spacers, roll your fenders front and rear, shave rear tabs and you should be good to go. A little bit of camber wouldn't hurt either if you still rub.
FYI, I have 19x9 +25 with 245/35/19 but am probably much lower than you and I'm at -1.9 F and -1.8 R camber. |

I was gonna choose 255 because they'd only be .2% off the stock size, while the 245s would be 1.9% off. Granted, 245 would be the shorter size. The D-specs also seem to allow the car to sit a little lower than on stock shocks, so I have consider that. Thanks for the suggestions!
Yeah, I was surprised the wheels lasted so long on the market! So with 20mm spacers, I guess I'd be at around the same offset as you, but not as low. Thank you for the advice! |

Since the speedo is off by a little bit anyway, 245s would make it more accurate fwiw. D-specs don't make much difference in ride height. 245s would definitely be the way to go if you plan on putting spacers. He is lower so the wheels tuck in a little more. Keep that in mind.
As for the tire size, I'm swaying more towards the 245s now! |
Koni's do for sure 100%...they are actually shorter.
|
I don't care, despite what I have read everywhere, shocks do affect ride height. I replaced my shocks (Stock Tokico) and springs (S techs) with new ones due to a sagging issue I was having, sent the springs back to the manufacturer, Tein tested them, said they were fine, and now those same springs are on another members car doing just fine. My shocks did not appear to be blown but they were, results in my suspension sagging. My replacement shocks (KYB) and springs (Tein S Techs) are doing great.
I can't say that I fully understand how they affect ride height so much because only the springs should but replacing my shocks fixed the issue. |
how flush should 18x8 +23 be? cause either that shouldnt be flush or i have some front camber i need to get rid of.

18 x 8 +33 you mean? They won't be exactly flush without 10MM spacers. |
i have 10mm spacers on em already
|
8 +23 with 245s should be sorta flush with s-techs
|
thats what i thought. gonna head to sals and get rid of some of my camber next saturday. checked the tire wear on my old volks and it was horrible. i prolly had 3 months left till they were to the wires. and i think im only running -1.2
|
-1.2? That's stock
|
what are stock toe/caster settings?
|
Pretty sure toe is zero'd out and caster is around 8?
|
idk then :[
i threw away my alignment paper. |
Always keep documentation of everything. Always
|
Rims:
19x10.5 ET26 Rear 19x9 ET26 Front. Tires: Rear = 275/40/19 Pirelli P Zero front= 245/40/19 General in the front. might be a horrible question but need to knoe if they will fit i got tein stechs thanks |
nope not even close in the rear
|
holy tire size batman
|
Rev - There's a guy running that size in the rear in Houston. His car isn't lowered and he has no wheel gap. He wants to put s-techs on it.

Should be pretty flush then. Time for coil overs :) |
lol ok so 10.5 wont work kool its my boys 350z rims ( not stock) he has like 3 sets and i wanted to see if theyd fit. looks like not happening
|
With different tires, a good bit of fender work, being really low on coilovers, and some magic they could fit.
