Will this fit? Swifts, spacers, 265/305 re11's

SXZ34 · 02-22-2013, 08:57 AM

Trying to see if an going to need to change my spacer size when I put my new tires on or not. So I would like to hear from anyone running this combo or that has run this combo.
Lowered on swift springs
Sport wheels 19x9+47(+27 with spacers) and 19x10+30(+5 with spacers)
New tires are 265/35/19 and 305/30/19 Potenza RE11's

I feel like this will work but I just want feedback from anyone in the same exact position.
Also if you're running this setup with 15/20 spacer sizing let me know if you have any issues at all.

Thank you anyone in advance for your feedback, I have searched for quite some time and have never gotten a for sure answer with this exact setup and tires are going on in 8 days

what are you running now? you could actually swap the spacers to get a more ideal +22/+10 setup

SXZ34 · 02-23-2013, 07:41 AM

That would put me moving my rear 25 mm to the front and the front 20 mm to the rear. I've pretty much decided the front will work fine w the 20 mm. Just may need to drop to the 20 in the rear also.

+20 offset in the rear is still going to be sunk in quite a bit. I'm running 10.5" wide +7 offset in the rear and am perfectly flush. Fronts are going to be fairly flush. I think you are thinking like 350z offsets where fronts and rears match. Our rears need much more then our fronts do.

SXZ34 · 02-23-2013, 02:27 PM

Nah, my understanding of the stock rays offsets with my current spacers I have a +5 offset

AlexRaymond19 · 02-23-2013, 04:15 PM

What are your goals? You want the tires flush or just for better performance with the spacers? I just got 305. Rears and they stick out past the wheel well with no spacers. I cant imagine it sticking out another 20mm

AlexRaymond19 · 02-23-2013, 04:17 PM

SXZ34 · 02-23-2013, 04:29 PM

I want them flush. What are your wheel specs though? 19? 20? how wide? what offsets?

AlexRaymond19 · 02-23-2013, 04:31 PM

19" advant garde m310. Running re11 305/255. The fronts stick out too

SXZ34 · 02-23-2013, 04:47 PM

Right but it depends on the wheels width and offset how much it sticks out

Unique_Z · 02-23-2013, 05:05 PM

I've done a quite similar setup with RE11 265/35 fronts but with 285/35 rears last year. I'm on the same 20/25 combo as you're running and from what i can recall, the fronts were cambered at -1.6x and -1.8x at the rears. I've seen some using 305 on the rears, but you're gonna have to camber the rears though.

Edit :

If you want to see my 285 rear rays setups, just check my journal

AlexRaymond19 · 02-23-2013, 05:07 PM

oh see, I dont know anything about tire numbers. They are19x9.5 5x114.3 +20 and 19x11 5x114.3+18. 255/35/19 and 305/30/19

SXZ34 · 02-23-2013, 05:10 PM

I actually checked your setup out Iwan, I like the looks of it a lot. The thing on the RE11's is the sidewall is so stiff that it doesn't really bubble out and the 305 fits quite similar to the 285

SXZ34 · 02-23-2013, 05:12 PM

Yeah, your wheels are wider and have much more aggressive offsets than mine do without the spacers which is gonna cause more "poke"

SXZ34 · 02-23-2013, 05:13 PM

Also with the 285/35 your rear tires are taller than stock and taller than the 305/30's Iwan
