So i was thinking that this would be a great thing to start because i keep noticing people are always asking about what offset to go with, and with what tire size.

There will be a standard form to follow, and i will keep editing this post so that every different combo will be posted at this post.

If you have any questions, comments or suggestions, Please PM me.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1)Wheel Size.
2)Wheel Width.
3)Offest.
4)Tire Size.
5)Your "Suspension Set-Up" Springs/Coilovers. (Drop Amount)

(If you are lowered on springs please post the drop measurements (Ex. F2.25,R2.5) ect...)

(If you have Adjustable Coilovers for a standard way of measuring ride height measure on a level surface from the to the ground to the highest center of you wheel well) For Eample. http://i8.photobucket.com/albu...4.jpg

6)Any Rubbing Issues.
7)What You Did To Resolve Them.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
These are ordered by wheel size then by tire size, then by offset. (high to Low)

Current setup rubs a lot. Only real way for me to fix most of it is coilovers and added camber. Or, remove the wheels

thanks to: Sturmmann, ezekielwhore, Mx6GT89. and 07ssmfit916 for your contributions

 

Desmond Regamaster EVO

6) Rubs in front in hard corners



Modified by RickyGoshDarn at 3:28 AM 1/6/2008

 

1. 15
2. 6.5
3. +45
4. 205/50 Toyo Proxies T1R
5. Mugen 5-way (3 in the front, 5 rear) about 1in drop
6. No problems rides great and performs great.

 

Thinking about getting a fit

would a 15x7 +13 wheels fit?

I would most likely be lowered on coilovers, rolled fender and maybe add some camber in the rear

 

Sounds like you'll be rubbing all over the place

 

Thats what i am thinking....I really want to keep my SSR reverse mesh too

 

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by solbrothers &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">im going to try the "fender liner" trick first</TD></TR></TABLE>

whats this?

 

oh.. i was thinking about doing that ever since one of my clips got "rubbed out"

 

Damn it seems everyone is rubbing with 16x7 w/ a 38mm offset. What would be the best spring and tires so I will not rub?

 

yea but I got these wheels already.
