Im getting ready to buy wheels and tires and i want to know what the best offset would be for a flush fitment on stock suspension would be. I plan on getting 18x9.5 and just want to know what offset would be best. Want a flush fitment with maybe a little poke, i plan on lowering later on. I have still have the stock wheels on which i think are 18x8.5

 

On 9.5....low 20s no roll. +15 if You don’t mind rolling the guards.

245/275 tire fitmemt.

 

Another fitment question for myself:
I eventually plan to get wheels too. Looking into 19x9.5 and 19x10.5. Rolling fenders won't be a problem. Also going to drop the car about 2 inches.
what would be a good offset and tire size? And also guessing I'll need adjustable camber too?

 

are you looking for poke and stretch while slamming your car ?

 

well I can say this:
Not going for stance.
Not going for SLAMMED, just lowered.
Daily driven.
prefer flushed like a porcelain throne.
Will be using raceland coilovers as they are best for simply dailying while low

 

May not sound like much but 2" drop is a LOT. And pretty much useless for street (except for insta points). You are going to need adjustable camber and toe arms out back, adjustable FUCA, and probably a skid plate.

Oh, and your choice of "coilovers".... have you done any research?

 

Yeah I have. I thought about Tein or BC coilovers but raceland caught my eye. It's cheap yes, but not cheap quality. I've seen plenty reviews (off site) and read up on why they're so cheap. People that have had them on for nearly a year had no complaints. Only thing you can really do on them is height adjustment and that's really what I'm looking for.
Also thanks for the recommendations!

 

Tein won't lower you 2" .

 

just dont rip your oil pan off.... mine was lowered an inch and i hit the zspeed under shroud on several raised (for whatever reason) manhole covers

 

Maybe I will settle for an inch. Might have to go with 19" wheels then?

 

Why? Look at my albums, the black nissan when it had gray wheels and painted door handles was lowered an inch with 18" wheels

 

Well if slight scraping is all to worry about, maybe you're right...

 

It was rare but it did happen....2 inches is alot (says every guy). Looks decent and functional at 1 inch

 

Irrelevant. 17, 18, 19, 20, etc. Properly sizing tires of different wheel sizes will/should keep rolling diameter pretty much static, e.g. 245/45-18 roughly equals same diameter as 245/35-19 equals 245/30-20....

 

Glad I can rely on y'all for wisdom. Thanks!
