Roll and pull for sure. That's a stupid offset for such narrow wheels.

its called widening the stance of the car.

and yeah if you want pictures just search my name i have a build thread.

BTW if your sticking out an inch or more i would suggest wider fenders. i have seen a lot of stock fenders being pulled to the point where they buckle and cause dents higher up.

I'm expecting lots of pull, I just want to know if it's possible with stock quarters. And if available pictures would help. I really, really don't want to have to go widebody even though I probably should.


Looked at your build thread and you're an idiot. Why wouldn't you get a wheel that fills the whole wheel well insted of one that will fit under stock body but with a fucked up offset.

I'm pretty certain they will not fit without overs or some SERIOUS pulling... I have 18x9.5 with a +27 offset and they are pretty flush

-52 and +0 will not work for an FC if you going 9.5 or higher...

you should stay around +25... for 9.5 width or higher.

i have 18x10 +24 in the rear.

well im making them fit.

and to turbo II rotor.

to each his own. im not going to go with a 17x14" wheel. and the works will still look good.

some would say fitting the 17x10 +0 on stock fenders is retarded.

and sub9lulu i have already test fitted the wheels on the car and taken my measurements and 3 inches in the rear of the car will fit these wheels. the front is a little harder.

It appears we have very different definitions of "fitting".

Well, fitting is a loose term.

Forgot the sarcasm smiley. I think putting huge wide rims without either having that much power or a wide body is pretty gay too.

exactly.

unless its a dedicated track car and you need to hold a 255 or higher tire.

my question to turbo II rotor is if your car is a drift car why do you need so much rubber back there unless your stretching the tires?

gt42r's usually put out a pretty healthy amount of power. 225s wont cut here bud.
