I noticed that with my FA 500s too, with my Teins the wheel was really close to the suspension (17x8 +35) but with the FAs they're a good bit more room

 

Current setup is changing soon.
Anyone running x10 lower offset in the fronts on stock fenders?

17x9.5 et-3 / 18x10 +38

 

I have my battles at -10 in the front on stock fenders with 3* negative camber. They poke a little but i needed the clearance to prevent rubbing at full lock.



An my fenders are pulled and rolled a tad. Ghetto style.

 

26x10.5x15 mickey thompson et streets i think its about 255/60/15 on some 15x8 +25 jeep wheels

 

I have Tokico adjustable with Racing Beat springs that lowers approx 1".
I want new rims, either 16" or 17". Which size should i go for to be on the safe side?

 

I'm running tokico illuminas and tanabe springs (lower than RB's) and I run a 17x9 just fine.

 

What offset do you got?

 

I believe +25..? I can't remember, they are 99-04 mustang gt wheels

 

What's the widest wheels I can fit on my FC. It's stock suspension. I know it depends on offset too, any help appreciated

 

I need assistance. I want to know how you have your side skirt staying to that little spot between the door, and the rear wheel arch. mine doesnt want to seem to stay, it always peels back. Any tips?

 

Will these fit? http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewi...843&cmd=VIDESC

 

I'm running tokiko blue struts with drop on tein lowering springs ....i really do not want to use adapters nor change my studs.
I had 18s on my vert which obviously no longer fit due that it now rubs on the springs....whats my best bet???....thanks in advance guys

 

drill a hole and add a zip tie? at least thats what I would do since my car is black and you wouldn't notice it hardly at all.

 

Just got my new setup on. 17x9.5 +18 (no front spacer :-)...) with a square 255/40/17 re11a setup. I absolutely love it! I almost pulled a 1100r bike tonight! Def caught him off guard and got a cool thumbs up :-)

Gotta love the tq and raw power from a lsx setup!

I also have shine +22 mm front fenders and we did a major pull on the rear. But I did have 275 star specs on a +22 18x9.5 prior

 

More rpf1s

 

Well i have a ziptie on the back(inside the wheel arch) and also i have them on the front, and you can hardly see. But, but theres not really a decent spot to put a ziptie on the front of that section. I really dont wanna do "panel bond" because that would be too good of a connection to the car.

 

I haven't used this trick on cars, but-

At my former work we used to use GE RTV to affix small engraved labels onto painted steel enclosures. It took a hammer and large flat head to remove the engraved labels even some 20 years later.

You could put a small dime or smaller sized dab of quality RTV on the sideskirt and clamp/force it to the body until it cures.

Warnings-
If the sideskirt does not fit flush on the panel so the rtv dab is thick it will probably take a couple days for it to set up.
It may take a spot of paint off if/when the sideskirt is ripped off.
If you want to paint over it you will probably have to remove any paint the RTV was in contact with or the new paint will fisheye badly.
Too much RTV area and it will be like panel bond, ripping the sideskirt on release.

Maybe a good trick for drift beater where you want clean sideskirt release on impact?

 

Okay search and haven't seen this size asked but will 17x8.5 +35 front and 17x10+45 rear for on the Fc? Tires for the rear are 235/45/17 don't the fronts.

 

yeah I gotchya. some well placed 3m double sided tape woud do the trick as well.. that stuff is way stronger than most may think, and its not too difficult to remove either.

 

Okay i've searched and I haven't seen this size being asked but will 17x8.5 +35 front and 17x10+45 rear fit on the Fc? Tires for the rear are 235/45/17 i don't know the front tire size. The wheels are oz monte carlo. What would be needed to fit because I'm getting a pretty good deal on them?

 

My secret, I use heavy duty velcro on the molding/skirt. Works pretty awesome.

 

no way? hahaha, i might go to lowes and see if i can find some

 

Well I picked up some industrial strength Velcro. Got it put on so well see how it does when I take it out tomorrow.

 

This is what I used and a homie also uses it on his miata.
