You will need a roll, 255 is the safe way.

so i won't need a roll 255 all the way around?

Ok so i'm planning on getting the 5Zigen FN01R-C wheels. These will be my AutoX and track wheels. First of all, what would be better for grip/handeling: 17X9 all around, 17X10 all around like DEEDUBB, or staggered, 17x10 and 17x9. Also, If I get the 17x9 all around, would 275/40/17 Falken Azenis RT-615's fit all around if i was dropped 1" in the front and .7" in the back? Or would I need to roll. Also, how would the 17X10's fit, and what tire size would be best.
Thanks! |

Thanks! 17x10 is concave, 17x9 is not. get 17x10 +35, you'll need a good roll/pull. You won't rub as much as +25. It will not be as aggressive as deedubs tho. I would run +25 255 or 265 all around it will clear better. That you you get all the looks, plus all the tire. I know you were looking in to lightweight wheels earlier, these are on the heavy side, but look badass. |
18x9.5 would also give you a concave face
|
Thanks for the into imput. I think i'll go with teh 17x9 and get the 255/50/17 Falken Azenis. But you said these were a bit on the heavy side? I have found that the 17x9 are only 15.4 lbs.

will an offset of 45-48 fit? i dont understand much about tires. can someone give me a quick rundown of what the dimensions mean? Im looking at 18x8.5 all around but i dont understand the offset i need. what size tires would i need to fit these rims?
|
Yes that'll work, 245 or 255 will be fine.
|
Will a 18X9.5 ET:+30 with a 235/40/18 tire,all around fit?
|
Yes it will.
|
18X8 offset 25 with 245/40/18 all around, and also a drop with Tein S-tech?

18x8F +38
18x9R +38 How close to flush would this be? Maybe need spacers? |
You would be better with the 9" on all 4 corners...they will fit nice and then you can rotate your tires
Never use spacers unless it is your last resort......Buy the correct rims with the right offset |

Nothing right about them is more like it.
What do they do that the correct offset wheels wouldn't do better? |

9" would be fine, 9.5 would be better.
|
They dont come in 9.5 like I just said. If they had 8.5f 9.5 r I would do that but they dont so im trying to figure out which would be better for the front 8 or 9. Im probably just going to do 9 and camber/roll the front and put spacer on the rear
|
9" with +38 offset will fit with no rubbing front and rear...even with an aggressive drop. They should look great

or, in my case, make a 9" wide wheel sit flush with the fender since a 9.5 isnt offered.

When you get into really low offset, you run into trouble with brake clearance. Running a slightly higher offset with spacers will alleviate that problem. It also allows you to run stock wheels and still sit flush.
Still is a band-aid fix for wheels that don't fit. I suppose if you run small spacers you don't run too many risks...and if you buy good ones that are hubcentric it helps also...but shorter stud length and an extra moving part in the equation leads to way too many chances for something to go wrong that wouldn't happen if you did it correctly the first time. Why do you think they make wheels in so may configurations....offset, width, dish etc are all parameters that need to be thought of in order to get things to work ideally |
Spacers are quick fixes that can get you into trouble. Just buy a wheel that fits. If you need a custom fit then get Fikse wheels.
