The "Will it fit?" thread

jappyjapz · 12-14-2011, 12:13 AM

just bought a set of used wheels, 19*10.5 +7 fr (245 tyres) and 19*11.5 +17 r (255 tyres) will they fit nicely? do I need to do negative camber? I'm planning to drop my car on coilover.

OMG...that's some skinny tires. Are you going for hellaflush? Don't ever hit the gas or you will go sliding all over and maybe even spin out. A lot of people run 265 front and 305 rear. With wheels that wide even a 305 will be a bit stretched in the rear.

I got a set of the Advan grade Rims off a member here that are
20x10 +20. All the rims are the same size.

The tire shop I am at refuses to put tires on my rims because he claims that they are not going to work. As in I'll be rubbing badly when I am am full lock. Also saying that I will have the rims poking out a lot. In the front.

Planning on going 275/30/20 in the front at stock height. Will I be fine? He said that if I insisted he will do it but i won't get any money back if it doesn't work.

Thanks in advance.

275/30/20 will fit. I had that on for 2 weeks before I went with 285.

I can full lock with 285 and no rub.

I willing be selling my 275/30/20 soon.

I was thinking of running a square setup. 18x10.5 +22 all around. would it fit? and what tires size should I be running? I'm currently not lowered but looking to throw on some eibachs or swifts in the near future. also what's our center bore size?

You may be dissapointed with this look... The front will end up looking pretty nice and be very aggressive and the rear will be sunk in... To match that front i would say you would need a 10.5 +0...

THe distance from the rotor to out to be flush with the fender is different on the front and rear... You may want to get a 20 MM spacer for the rear.

You will see what i mean when you put these wheels on.

Tire sizes for a 10.5 depends on what you like
255- Super stretched
265- Stretched
275-285 Slightly stretched
295-305 Squared look

Absolutely! The 25MM spacer would be perfect actually! And glad I could help... That's what the forums are for!

Way to pick widths and offsets!! I would almost say personally you couldn't have really gotten much better offsets... Maybe a 11 width +5 offset but very minimal difference.

Semi stretched I would go 255-35-19 on the 9.5 and a 285-35-19 on the 11... This is if you want stretched. If you google Volkdb350z and see my blue Z you will see my Gloss black TE37s (9.5 with a 255 and a 10.5 with a 275) the 275 should be a similar look to the 285-35-19 on an 11 inch width so looking at my 350z u should get a good visual of how the tire will look.

If you want more of a stretch. Go 245-40-19 and 275-35-19 rear.

Goodluck!

symple84 · 01-05-2012, 06:37 PM

Thanks for the feedback I got good advice from a friend for the offsets. The rear is actually +10 it was a typo.
