Yes the wheel studs did extend past the spacer but the pocket in the back of the OEM R3 wheel
was deep enough to allow the extra lenght so everything fit perfect.

I used Eibach pro spacer/hub center,and painted them flat back.

Buying this month!
 
I'm looking at Enkei RPF1s
9.5x19 w/ 42 offset
265/30 R19
OR
275/30 R19

Fenders are rolled already and I have BC Coils so I just want to know if this will be flush and if it will have issues..

Thanks!

Smallest offset i can run on koni yellows and tein s-tech with ought any moddifications

WreakLoosE 04-30-2014 09:47 AM

To give you an Idea.. Im running. 19x9.5 245/35R19 + 12 in the rear and + 22 in the front. Needed to roll my fenders and adj. my camber. I was able to fit 275/30R19 and 285/30R19 that was +35 if I remember in the rears on my last RX8 i did 25535R19 in the front though.. you can probably fit 265/30 in the front im thinking with that offset and width..

265/30s on 19x9.5 +43 rub the rear fenders if they aren't rolled, but you should be good if you're rolled. I can't comment on the front or how low you can go though.

sweet, thanks

18x8.75 [+33mm] lowered on S-techs on 245/40/18's.

Any problems? Will it look flush? Not looking for a stretched look.

OtherSyde 05-17-2014 10:30 PM

How about:

245/40/R18's
18 x 9.5" rims, +45 offset
25mm Garageline Spacers
1.4" drop in front
0.7" drop in rear (TEIN S-Tech Springs)

That's basically what I'm running for a few more days and you will need a good fender roll. The rear bumper tabs will be a small issue as well.

Awesome, thanks... I already bought a small metal baseball bat and did the fender-rolling with the bat wrapped in soft cloth to prevent scratching, but how did you deal with those tabs that are part of the rear bumper?

Mr_Pieper 05-19-2014 02:26 PM

If it is close you may be able to get away with bending them upward a bit, but otherwise you will need to break out a cutoff wheel and trim things a bit. That thing is sharp and will noticeably get into your tire.

Got question answered.

happyisbackk 05-27-2014 01:55 AM

Can anyone help me out.. ive done a bit of research but im still not 100% sure it im going to have fitment issues..

Can I fix 18x10 +15 on a 235/40 tyre?

Apparently you can with -1.3 camber but I dont know if I need to roll? Or whats the go if I want to drop it on stance coilovers?

Lower it first. Those wheels are going to sit outside the fender.

WillPetro 06-04-2014 12:27 PM

will 18x9.5 +27 with a 255/35/18 tire fit on stock height? I can run some negative camber? And a fender roll? What about a pull? Different tire?

At stock height that will sit outside of the wheel well and crash into everything as your soft springs let it.

I have been looking at a set of Momo Revenge wheels for my 8. They are 18x8, offset is 40. Bolt Pattern is 5x114.3. So looking at the wheel guide it should fit however I've plugged it into 2 different sites and they say it doesn't fit for some reason. I don't know what the center bore is but generally aftermarket wheels have an over sized one with the locking ring ( I think that's what it's called but I can't remember for sure). Does anyone have any ideas?

What do you suggest I do? Lower it?

If I said it will fit then it will fit (I was a touch conservative). That's basically stock sized. Find out the center bore for sure.

Yea. Especially with tires that short. That would look very mexiflush.

Lol sorry I'm at work. I'm just wondering how I get it to look right. Lowering it helps but what else would I need to do to fit it.
