super shitty blackberry pics...

17X9.5 +15 with 205/45 all the way around, with spacers...5mm F and 20mm R






more and better pics to come after fender roll/pull and tire tuckage+camber...

 

Hypertek-

I went with your advice on here...+15 spacers all the way around. 17x8.5 fronts, and 17x9.5 rears. Both +42. Turned out awesome!! Thanks guys!!

 

Ok i looked through the entire thread and couldn't find anyone with the size/offset im looking at(unless i missed it. lots of pages)

They are Rota P45R wheels. I want to use a 17x9 all the way around. Now rota offers the following offsets for that size : 17x9+30 & 17x+25. What will fit and what tire size should i go with. Thanks in advance.

 

I put a 22 offset 18x9 on thr rear of my FC - knowing it wasn't enugh ideally. Rubber was 245/35, which sat almost flush with the guard - was about 3mm over. A 30 offset would have suited much better, so you sound like you're bang on the money for the rears. Can't help with the fronts though - no idea what offset they are

 

Okay so this weekend i took some time and measured and I think that a:

15x8 with 5.5 backspace (+25mm offset) and a 215/60R15 would be good on the front.
15x10 with 6.25 backspace (+19mm offset) and a 265/50R15 would be good on the rear.

I'm going to use custom offset Chrome Daytona's from AWC

 

pls dont put rotas on your fc

 

Will these fit?

Front wheels lists:

17X8 5-114.3 22mm offset

Rear wheel lists:

17X9 5-114.3 27mm offset

These are just the specs I pulled off of discount tire.

I would appreciate any help. I can work on engines all day but for some reason I can never rap my head around sizes and offsets for wheel fitments. Thanks in advance and any tire size recomendatios would be welcome. Or hardware like spacers..

Thanks in advance guys.

They should fit with a fender roll on the front and rear fenders. What tire size are you going to run?

 

To be honest I don't know yet. What sizes do you guys recommend?

 

If you have coilovers 17X9 +25 with a fender roll in front and 235/40/17 to 255/40 17 will fit all around. The tires just depend on your power level, and how wide you want to go. You could also stagger the tires if you wish.

 

yea, ill have coilovers thanks for the help.

 

Who else makes track wheels in 15 x 7, 15 x 7.5 or 15 x 8?

 

I believe you can order custom offset racing whels from Bassett Wheels. I know you can get custom offset from US Wheels on lots of there steel wheels. Weld and centerline sell lots of high offset wheels.

 

FD wheels. 245/45/16 tires, 25mm spacers all round. Zero rubbing. Okay maybe a TINY bit on the front right fender, but no rubbing on the frame, springs, arms, struts

 

Kodiak, but they're a bit expensive. I believe you know about my experience with Rota. My 15x8 Rota Slipstreams will be the legs of a coffe table soon enough because they have no business being on any car with the critical design flaw that they've got.

 

look at the albums in my profile, i test fit some 17x9 +25 P45R's on my FC....they fit fine, but the tires were the wrong size (they are for a mustang's daily use)

i have 17x9 +25 BBS wheels all around 235/40 front tire, 255/40 rear tire....perfect fitment. i still need to lower my car again after putting 100 miles on them. (wanted to let everything settle)

 

17x8 +25 225/45/17 up front
17x9 +20 255/40/17 in back

Fits good haven't rolled any fenders.

 

When you get low enough, it will

 

Or just drive it hard enough- lol.

 

I have just bought some new wheels and tyres.

I will add some photos once fitted.

Can't wait to see those mounted.

 

'88 what size spacers would get 17x7 +38 (front) 17x9 +35 (rear) almost flush with the stock fenders?

 

hey guys ...I wanna put those OZ alleggerita in 17x8 with 225 tires but they are only made with 45 offset so I need some spacers guess 20mm. Do i have to work on fenders ?

 

Nope, and if you have slight rubbing, just a slight roll of the lips will suffice.

 

I just picked up some 18x10 inch lowenharts with +50 off set for my FC. I know Im going to need some adapters, but dont know how big, if anybody can help that would be greatly appreciated.
