I know this has been covered...and i've done a search on it already...but the problem is, I'm ordering the rims...today...and the guy wanted me to call him back as soon as I got back to the office and let him know which one I needed. I can't find it?!!!?!?


Can someone please tell me...

Volk GTS....19x9.5 +17 fronts and 19x10.5 +18 rears....if i want to be able to clear a BBK...i probably need to get the High pad option...right? Does this make the lip smaller?

 

wow, thanks for the quick help

 

PM GTNPU_Z. He has all the info you need. He went through the same dilemma when he bought his GTS'.

 

well.. if you do that setup is High pad front and low pad rear.. are you going to do rear bbk if so which one? there's some rear bbk that can run low pad... so if you want answer.. Need to give more info..

 

thanks for the help! i don't wanna limit what i can do to my car later b/c of the rims i buy now!

 

I'm not exactly sure which rear bbk i am going to go with...or front for that matter. I like the Stoptech 14" all around...but you can get that new wilwood that's a little smaller all around for alot cheaper...i guess i should just assume that i'm going to go w/ the biggest to account for safety...

Does this effect the size of the lip on the rim? If i accept going w/ smaller BBK, or none at all in the rear, will i be able to have a bigger lip?

 

I'm pretty sure that with the pre-determined size and offsets of your wheels your
"pad" selections will be fixed. The 19 x 19.5 +17 is only made in the A pad, which is the high pad (max brake clearance). The 19 x 10.5 +18 is only made in the C pad (low brake clearance, but max lip).
