need help on my rear tires. i don't know if i am posting in the right place but i got a 19x10 +43 with a 285/35/19... only reason why i went with those tires because i got them dirt cheap. i already rolled and trimmed some of the rear bumper but it looks like the white mounting tab for the rear bumper is where my tires are getting chewed up at. i was wondering what i can do to not rub on that part. i tried throwing some camber but no go.. i want to run a skinnier tire but this needs to do for now. can i cut off the tab? need help!

You might be SOL.... that braket can't really be modified I don't think.
|
yeah...i think you might be SOL :icon_no2:
i know this might be far fetched - but is there anyway you could possibly shave the tab down? |

Hey
Just to be sure Lowered on Eibach pro kit (Front) 8.5x18" +38 245/40/18 (Rear) 9.5x18" +38 275/35/18 |
^tight fit on the rear. If anything, some camber might work.
|
atilla: you got new tires and didn't tell me?!
envy: great looking car! I think you're going to have to change the tire size, sorry man. If you just put those on there, you might be able to sell for a decent amount to help offset the expense |
You'll probably have to roll the rear a little bit or run some camber.
|
^He'll be fine with some camber, no need to roll the rear.
|
Jedi: check teh b@w thread :D:
|
Would I be better off with
235/40/18 265/35/18 |
^Better chance of fitting w/out camber.
|
Cool thanks bro.
|
Will 18x8 +40 look stupid? I have a good deal on some TSW Nogaros, but I don't know how it will look compared to stock (more sunk in I think, or about in the same place?) GAH deciding on wheels is so goddamn difficult!
|
umm yeah...
just to give you an idea. The stockies are 18x8 +50. +40 it will be pushed out by 10mm. My personal opinion...if you're gonna upgrade in wheel, at least go wider. Put more rubber to the ground. Edit: Thanks imput - iono wtf i was thinking :banghead: |
^it won't be more concave, the wheel will come out 10mm more

I know I know. I really want 9.5 all around, I'm just having trouble figuring out what I want :\ Edit: Speaking of which, does anyone have any opinions on what color wheel would look best on a stormy blue? |

New rims
Hey guys,
I just got these rims (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...%3AIT&viewitem) and I was wondering what size tires I should get for my RX8. All the suspension is stock. I was thinking 225/35/19, but I am not too sure how well it would work. Any suggestions. |
go with 245/35/19
|
new rims
Thanks, appreciate it.
