Outside aggressive fitment is so old. Inner aggressive fitment will be some next level shit!

Damn, it's difficult to find wheels to test fit in these specs as well. v.v

Wheel/Tire Setup:

Enkei RPF1 18x9.5et45 w/ a 255-40-18 tire.


Would this work with (no rubbing):

-stock suspension

-Tein H-tech's w/ Koni yellows

???

From what I've read, it should be ok, but I'm not 100%

Atilla 09-23-2011 01:34 PM

you'll be fine. Even if you rub, it would only be slightly at full load. You may roll your fenders if you're really scared. It's really easy.



p.s. - I really believe the answer to this thread should be "YES, IT WILL FIT...IF YOU HAVE THE MONEY/ABILITY"

tiltmode43 09-23-2011 01:39 PM

Why not 275/35/18?

Atilla - Difference between *can* it fit, and *will* it fit :)

Atilla 09-23-2011 01:41 PM

^shhhhh!

that'll only lead to more questions!

:uhh:

Thanks! That's what I needed to know. That's as big as I can see myself going. I've done some fender rolling before and have local access to one. I'd just rather not if I don't have to.

SPECS: front & rear 18x9 with 38mm offset. LM BBS's

Will they sit flush?How can I make these more agressive if not? how many mm on spacers?

I Have 225/45/18 tires. I am not lowered right now. Willing to roll fenders.

J8635621 09-23-2011 07:49 PM

With expensive wheels like BBS, Volk, etc I would recommend getting what fits and not using spacers as it will give you a bigger lip and bigger is always better. Those will fit but I'd suggest 245/40/18. When you lower the car, you can put 10mm spacers and roll the fenders.

rpf1's 18x9.5 + 38 all the way around.
Looking at getting Stance GR coilovers

Im getting new tires. Either 245/40/18 or 235/40/18's would like to stick with the 245's so maybe a 245/35/18?

What kind of things am I going to have to do if any? (with rubbing issues)

J8635621 09-26-2011 07:30 PM

1. Enkei doesn't make that size (or it was a special groupbuy I was unaware of)
2. It depends how low you go with the coilovers.
3. 245/40 is the much better choice out of those (no mods needed)
4. No reason to have that narrow of a tire. I'd go 265/35 or 275/35 and roll the fenders (maybe trim the rear bumper tab a little bit)
5. Your sig has a typo...it's wheelflip not wheepflip
6. Your name makes me think of a fart gone wrong.
7. I hope I answered all your questions fully.

AirmanRx8 09-27-2011 12:01 AM

I have no (current) suspension modifications

I'm looking at 18x10/255 +35 front and rear.

Now, the million dollar question: Will it fit, and if not, what do I need to do in order to fit 18x10's on my car.

J8635621 09-27-2011 08:18 AM

Lower the car first. Thank me later

1. Sorry. +38 is what I meant. *fixed*
2. As low as I can without major modification.
3. a 245/40 is what is in my eyes, thanks
4. Yeah I kinda thought a 235 was a little small..
5. *fixed*
6. My last name is Scharte sounds like Schar-tea and some people call me Schartz.
7. You did your best. I appreciate it. Thanks

J8635621 09-27-2011 09:50 AM

But how low is that?

https://farm6.static.flickr.com/5097...4fce017f_z.jpg
9.5 +28 (+38 with a 10mm spacer) all around with 245/40

s3ntin3l 10-01-2011 05:19 AM

just wondering if you gurus could tell me if a 19x9 and 19x10 that are both +45 would fit. tires are Front: 235/35/19 and Back: 245/35/19.

J8635621 10-01-2011 09:26 AM

Suspension? Yea that will fit but the tires could be a ton wider.

atwood_101 10-03-2011 12:02 PM

Okay so i'm looking to get the XXR 527 18x8.75 +35 offset, Tires are 225/45/18's. Not looking for anything super aggressive, but better than stock..
Right now im on stock suspension but will be throwing some Tein S-techs on within the next few weeks. Will this work?
And to be honest i don't really want to have to roll my fenders or anything.. If this won't work then i can just go with the XXR 522's :)

J8635621 10-03-2011 12:31 PM

It will fit. Needs wider tires

atwood_101 10-03-2011 12:39 PM

Sweet. Thanks man!

s3ntin3l 10-04-2011 10:51 PM

What would have to be done in order for these to fit: 19x10 +28 235/35 %90
19x11 +11 245/45 %90. These are coming off of a 350z so I'm not sure if they would fit at all. Previous owner was on bags and had (from the looks of it) mean fender rolls.

J8635621 10-05-2011 07:04 AM

Nope

Rud'X8 10-06-2011 06:14 PM
