I wouldn't do it.
It should not pass tech, since I think 1/4" is max spacer you can run in SCCA.

with my 1/4"/5mm spacers that i run, i am only able to use half of the threads on the studs. so i would assume that 1/2 inch spacers would render the stock studs useless. slip on spacers most definately compromise strength.

 

Whats the widest I can run in the back for drag racing? Sorry if its a repost but this thread is 79 pages

 

Now will 17x8 +47 / 17x9 +47 fit an Fc

 

No, the offset is too high, for the front you need about a 35-30mm offset. I don't think the rears will fit either.

 

k thanks

 

Thanks, this is what I wanted to know. I guess I'll be finding out how tirerack's return policy goes

 

Would these fit on my FC
17x8J+29 215/45 Front
17x9J+31 255/40 Rear
Thanks in advance

 

Yea, according to the earlier posts, it will fit fine.

 

got some new wheels...

 

Badass, what are the specs on the TE-37s, seriously i love it.

 

just to update.

i ended up picking up the RP-01's. i traded my FD wheels with worn rubber and 8mm spacers plus 130cnd cash for just the RP-01's w/o rubber. They're 17x7.5 +32mm all around mint condition but are white (eww) lol. I guess i'll change that later. I got some free rubber from my uncle. Pirrelli P6000's w/ about 80% tread left. Since they were free i couldnt choose what size, these were 255/40/17 lol i was a little worried. I test fitted 1 on a rim, went on smoothly. I cant really do a proper test fit on the car though because there is no weight (missing engine, trans, driveshaft and diff) but i did it just for fun anyways. seems like there is enough room, clear L2L good. so im expecting it to fit The reason i traded was because i really didnt want to use spacers lol and right when i decided to not use spacers, these wheels went up for sale. I'll post pics if anyone wants to see :P

 

18x9.5 -5

 

im lookin at buyin 16x6.5 with a 40mm offset and i have a 4 lug 86 rx7... will it work?

 

Sure.


-Ted

 

Front: 18x8.5 225/35/18
Back: 18x9.5 265/30/18

Rolled Fenders
Tokico Illumina Coilovers

Will this work? What offset should I use to get the wheels as flush as possible to the fenders? Or more importantly, what will fit?

Thanks

 

What about...
16x7.5 +20mm

 

Fit in back no problem.
It'll clear the insides up front, but depending on the tire widths it's most likely will hit the fender lip.

ok i have some rims that i got for christmas from my older brother. there 16 x 8 all around. the front rims have a +46 offset and the rear rims dont say. i was thinking about stretchin a 205 on the front rims and putting say 225's in the rear. i test fitted the rims and the front rims hit part of the caliper. the rear rims clear everything.

what size spacers would i have to use to make them flush on my TII?

 

ok ive got somethin to add to the mix.....

im lookin at sportmax 962's in

18 X 8.5 35mm offset up front with 225/40/18
18 X 9.5 35mm offset out back with 265-275/35/18

ive been lookin around and im still not sure if these will fit...if i will need spacers...i think these things will look sick if they fit

 

At least 1/2" or 13mm...


-Ted

 

At least 1/4" both front and back.
I would try run something a little more than 1/4" up front though...
I'd like at least a 10mm spacer up front...


-Ted

 

thanks reted........would you reccommend the 265 or 275 out back in tire size???

 

On a S5 TII, I don't want to run a space so I'm thinking of running 225/45/17 on 17 x 7, +40 in the front, and 245/45/17 on 17 x 7.5, +30 in the rear, what do u guys of think of that?

 

I dunno about 18's, but a 275 / 40 / 17 is too wide - note 17" tire size.

I would try and stick with the 265, unless you're willing to roll fenders?
