How much tire do you think I could fit on 17x9 +30's all around?
Do you think I could fit a 235/45 up front and a 255/45 out back?
I'm running Stance Pro's, thinking about 2 degrees camber up front, not much camber in the back. I do plan on rolling the fenders, especially the fronts. Leaning towards Kumo MX's. Thanks

Thanks for the response. Are you running stock pulled fenders?
Edit: I looked at your profile and it looks like you are.
Ok, I think I'll try 255/45s all around with 5mm spacers.

18x10 -5 and 18x11 -5..
Cars on the other side of the country right now. Just want to get some kind of idea as to what size fenders to get.
Any ideas? I was thinking just 30 F and 30 R?

Hey - let us all know how you get on, and post some pics also of the finished product. They are massive wheels! Here's to hoping it works out for you!

AIT's fenders look less rediculous than any other rear overfender ive found, which is why i bought them. most other "30mm" rears look all boxy and shitty, and generally stick out way more than 30mm. i dont think my rears look big at all, and they fit 315's.
same rear fenders on that black vert with 18" stich-gulfs that everyone faps over (cant find a pic right now).
in this pic, i have 275/35/18 on 18x10.5 +3 (+15, 1/2" spacer)
rear tire sat totally flush (rubbed a teeny bit), but the sidewall flexes in while cornering.
fronts are 255/40/17 on 17x10 +10 (+18, 8mm spacer)
so i would say its a perfect setup for your 10/11 with neg offsets, and not as big tires (235/255 maybe?)

Getting ready to order some wheels, need help with offsets. Going for flush, I want to run 18x9 or 18x9.5 in the back, and 17x8 or 17x8.5 in the back, thanks for the advice. Oh btw, car is a stock body cert with stance gr+

Josh I love your car. This is what I remember wheel fitments to be.

Using the term flush has become synonymous with stretched tires and phat lip etc.....
With what it looks like you want I'd run
17x8 +30 with 225's or 235's
18x9.5 +35 to +38 is good with 255/35. Probably have to remove muffler heat shields.
THIS IS STANDARD FLUSH FITMENT WITH GOOD GRIP HANDLING FROM 5 YEARS AGO. lolz. THIS WAS HELLA FLUSH TO ME BEFORE. Now **** is just all crazy.

spacers for stock tII wheels with coilovers?
Hi everyone, my car is pretty slammed with stock tII wheels. I can't find the offset anywhere and I'm wondering what spacers to run to make em flush? 15mm? 20mm? my fronts rub at full crank to the left or right and I'm already running 5mils.
EDIT; Maybe pics will help... I just lost my 225's in the rear to a construction site, (razor blade in the tyre) Hopefully these pics give good reference.

ok so i have read and read and read but its sooo hard to find the answer exactly, so i am just gonna ask to see if its even possible.
i want to run some enkei rpf1's 17x9 cause i like the flat spokes otherwise i would just run 17x7 or 17x8 but i have seen pics that show the difference, anyways, i dont want them sticking out or rubbing inside or out and dont wanna roll or pull fenders.
will they fit and with what offset would i have to get to have them fit,
soooo many people want them flush or an aggresive stance i just want them to fit
if they dont fit i will just stay with my stock 10AE wheels with 245's on them
and what tire size would make them work best. dont wanna go lower than 245 on the enkei's so will 17x9 with 245's fit with what offset and what profile?
just intrax springs everything else stock
not a cornering car either

On the fronts I know a 9"gets awfully tight - I run 17x8 as the roads here will eat anything more. On a 9" coilovers are a must and possibly a camber adjustment also. To be sure have a look at the more recent posts by MaczPayne as he has a lot of info re what will fit on the fronts.
Cheers!

You can run 8" with 25 off-set all round. It has been used (in the is thread) on the front without issue. 17x8 fronts are peachy, as are 18x9's for the rear. Both work on standard suspension without camber mods. You can probably run 18x8's ont he front also. same offset.

Not on the front with a stock setup. On the rears that's exactly what I have - with a stock setup.

so i might just try to find a 7" wheel, now to decide which wheel and what size 15,16,17

Ah, didn't know the flat spokes were only on 9's and above. I get where you're coming from. Well, go 9's then - just get the right offset and camber mods for the front. Not like it's never been done. Don't know why you wouldn't go 17's all round, but that's just me - and it depends on what you're going to use the car for of course.
All the best regardless

Here's my work in progress, still need to do some fender work before i could drop it.
Kinesis K28
19x9 +6 with 235s
19x12.5 +13 with 315s
Wheels don't have the offset sticker on the back so i had to figure out the offset my self, does it sound right?
