i hear what you're saying RE-M. i think that is a great idea and is kinda going along with with what TonyStarkz was saying. maybe we can start posting with if it rubs/clears etc with certain offsets/sizes/tire sizes.

 

I usually liked stretched tires and that jazz.

trying out a new fetish i like......steam rollers



10.5s with 285s and 12.5s with 315s

 

Wtffffff???? Lol.... Damn dude, those look super sweet!!! We arent twins anymore

So you have 3 sets of wheels now?

 

Damn that looks good krayton!

 

Looks sick!!!

 

Very nice. Is that a burnout kit?

Do you get rubbing?

More pics please

 

just the 2. powder coated my chrome wheels since they needed a new finish.



Gunny, it rubs. Its tire vs fiberglass fender right now. well see which one gives first.

prob sticks out a little much for some people. ill grab some more pics later this weekend.

 

Niceee

 

This is the exact setup i plan on running, except with shine's feed fenders. Thanks for confirming that the size fits!

 

Lol ooh ok. I'm thinking on doing the same to mine, I like the classic look but I think they'll look really good all black

 

18x8.5 +25 215/40
18x10 +25 255/35
mild fender roll, no rubbing

 

I know most of you have already seen those pics... since I posted them on fb and many forums and they ppl shared them alot...

Anyway, wheels are Work VS-XX in burning black.
F: 18x10 ±0 --- 225/40 FK452
R: 18x13 +20 --- 295/30 FK452

Feed front fenders and pulled rear fenders
Also camber is unknown as of now.









Now this is why I actually wanted 13's in the first place :
18x12 --- 275/35 (left) 18x13 --- 295/30 (right)

 

Bigger contact patch in the rear?

 

^what do you mean?

 

Nice wheels. Always love these wheels. Where you from DeeSan? You should come to our meet.

Here is my FD with CCW Classic 18x10 all around. Nothing extreme.

 

17x9 +35 rear with 275 40 17 azenis rt615
17x8 +32 front with 245 45 17 azenis rt615

anyone have pictures of the following set up? i went through 35 pages and i didn't see what i was looking for

18x9.5 with an offset in the 30's-40's, with a 225/40/18 tire size

stock front fenders and rear quarter panels, no flares, let me know if you need to roll the fenders and how much camber

 

There is no need to run that small of a tire of a 18x9.5 if your offset is in the high 30s or 40s. You can run either a 255/35 or 265/35. I was running 18x9.5 +45 SSR GT2s with 265/35r18 with no issues. Front could use a roll just for safety, rear has tons of room. If your offset is in the 35 range Id go with the 255s up front, as they are not only smaller but shorter, allowing safer clearance.

 

the reason i was asking is because there is a local STI guy selling his set of enkei wheels for dirt cheap with 90% tires, and those are the tire size, i was planning on using them until they run out before i buy 265/35/18's

 

he was asking if you went to a 295/30 - 13 for a more tire touching the ground. but the reason you went to that size is because u wanted to be lower , the 295/30 on a 13 is shorter than 275/35 on a 12.. kinda same problem im having.. only way to get the close to that on a 18x12 rim is going with a 255/35.. and even then you're still .75mm taller than a 295/30 18x13.

 

^word baby!!!

 

I used to have 18x9.5+30 fronts with 225/40's, these are the only pictures I have:




Rears were 9.5+12 with 235's, rolled fenders, stock r1 springs and no extra camber.

 

another pic... stats further back in my last post

 

thanks bro! that helped a lot
