Overfenders anyone? Updated with test fit pics 12/4
 
I've decided to get a little wild...and I couldn't turn down this deal.

Does anybody have suggestions on over fenders? I'm looking for 25mm front and 30mm rears. Relatively cheap and duraflex preferred; similar to those on Pawlak's car. Anybody selling some for cheap?

Um...teaser?

You cant go too low on rx7 wheel fitment because when you turn the wheel, they may potentially hit the fenders.

Sounds like I might be in trouble then...see response below.

Fronts are hi-flex. You can call them to see how wide. Not listed.

Rear may be excessive at 50mm.

I am assuming you sold your old wheels?

I cant wait to se how this thing looks.

I too, remember those on zilvia.

Shine has those Foresight 30mm front/rear without those front vents. I think this will look the best in my opinion. Actually i think Justin P. might actually be using this same Shine fenders if I rember correctly ....

Yeah that's what I was thinking, too, they look really nice. Do you guys think 30mm will be enough and I'll be able to stay flush? I just don't wanna buy fenders that are too wide.

stevensimon 11-24-09 09:28 AM

30mm will not be wide enough. my 20mm fronts barely clear my 8.5" -6 offset wheels. you are adding about another 25mm to that with your offset and width.

Correction, I think your math is a little off. 8.5 -6 to 10.5 +5 will only add 14mm more...and I'm pretty sure you're not poking with a 20mm up front.

I would like to poke a little, similar to Hypertek's setup. Maybe a little more...

Right now I'm rocking a 8.5 +5 in the front with stock fenders and a slight pull. 10.5 +5 will give me 25mm more than what I have now, exactly.

Yeah, I think those are too crazy. I want to keep at least some remnants of my stock body.

50mm all around and cheap if you have the skills to make them fit:

My problem with those is that I want to stay flush. I'm looking for just the right amount of flare to get the tires in, but the lip of the wheel poking out.

I did consider them, and still am.

I think I'm leaning to the Shine stuff, even if it's a little bit more pricey than the rest. I wish i had someone local so I could throw the wheels on and see where they fit with different sized fenders.

Keep em coming guys!

you can cut them back as needed to get your wheels flush.

Ahhh very good point. Thanks!

danegerous 11-25-09 02:50 AM

Raceon is garbage fitment....but I'll sell you my raceon fronts and my much better quality rears if you're interested

finishline 11-25-09 11:19 AM

just pull the f@#$ out of that bish and roll it up like mad sushi son. :rofl:

but furreal, good luck on your FC man. these wheels are definitely hot stuff.

EDIT: realized they're black faced so they'll definitely complement the S4 moldings. :)

dkwasherexd 11-25-09 03:24 PM

i have 50 mm version selects..

wheels are +35 18x9.5 with a 50mm spacer and 10mm slip on extended studs.

effectively -25 offset.. I dont think its too much at all. 50mm spacer is the only way to make sportmax look good !

Pics of fitment front and rear? My rears will stick out 10mm farther than yours so I'd like to see.

Thanks!
