18/10.5 +45 Will they work?
I have volk te37s 18/10.5 for the rear with a +45 offset. They are like a cm or so away from the trailing arm. Will they work, if not then how can i get them too?
I also am running a 275/35 |
coilover suspention

I read a magazine with an rx7 that was running 11's in the back. I put the back wheel on the car yesturday(w/o tire) and it was too close. Does anyone know if i could use these rims or not????? If not than i need to sell them soon. So, please get back to me!!

If you've got 'em, you might as well try 'em and let us know!
Seriously, i'd worry more about the outside clearance w/ fender lip. if thats OK, then you can do a little bit about the inside. I'm assuming you don't already have the upgraded (M2) trailing links that will give you a bit more clearance. BUT, i've you've got a CM or so, its probably fine, the only thing to worry about is the rim protector bar on the tire, and it shouldn't stick out much on a 10.5" wheel. |

Well, its a little like horseshoes: close counts.
I have a friend who runs 17x11" rears, and even with the upgrade toe links and some specers, the tire JUST clears the link... but thats fine. A miss is as good as a mile. |
Well everyone a 10.5 w/ 45+ offset does fit on your rx7. I dont have any rubbing at all. Even with the r1 suspension. They look bad ass. I am going to take some pictures of it tomorrow. And i will post them on the board.

Great! The math says that to be the case, but it's great to have it verified. I recommend 285/30-18 or 295/30-18 tire sizes...

Thats great, can't wait to see the pics!
Say, do us all one more favor: measure the ACTUAL width of the wheel, i.e: bead to bead. Since its usually a little larger than the stated width, and varies from manufacturer to manufacturer, it would be usefull info. |
Were you able to take pics? Also, what is your rear camber? Thanks!
