Aggressive Wheels and Stretched Tires....Welcome
04-19-2014, 10:44 PM
so i bought new wheels from a shop in cali and from my understanding they are supposed to clear bbks.
the front I'm having trouble fitting the wheels with the akebono brakes
the specs for the front are work vs-xx with R disk 18x10 +6 i wanted to run a 275/35 but i can run a more stretched tire so long its not ridiculous. probably 255/35 or 245/40
I know i will have to run a spacer to get them to fit over the brakes.
the spacer will be either 20mm or 25mm (less if possible).
I have stock suspension other than the struts and springs off of a nismo
so if i run a 20 or 25mm spacer making it (18x10 -14 or -19) will the wheels fit without pulling the fenders?

Hey can we get a sticky or PSA about posting in this/all wheel threads? Must include wheel AND TIRE sizes to post?
I see a lot of people post wheel specs but not tire. An aggressive fitment thread is largely useless without tire specs. Also it would reduce a lot of clutter of people quoting pics and asking for specs. Just my two cents.

Should be a 2 month BAN (posting pics without specifications on wheels, offsets suspension, and tires).
The problem is people posting pics without specs, and then a “million” replies (going on for pages) asking for specs (wheel size and offset, tire size, and suspension mods).

need help with wheel fitment
So I recently bought a set of work Ryvers with fairly aggressive offsets at 18x10 +6 in the front and 18x11 -11 in the rear on 245/40 and 225/40 tires respectively. I'm running Megan front UCAs, spc camber and toe bolts, and PBM Coilovers with 12/8k Spring rates. The fronts went on no problem, but the rears have been a pain so far to make fit. I rolled and pulled my fenders quite a bit and they fit when sitting still... The problem is when I go up inclines or over bumps. The suspension travels so far that the fender rubs down on the tires making it impossible to go up even slight inclines. What are my options here?? More camber? Or do i just need to raise it up more? I see tons of guys running lower than I currently am right now on coils, so I could use some help from you slammed static guys. First Post BTW so don't flame too hard
