Sick! im going for the hellaflush look as well. what dimensions are your wheels? what are your tire specs? QUOTE (smkr3w @ Apr 20, 2012 - 6:11 PM) QUOTE (Cudi @ Apr 20, 2012 - 5:47 AM) i saw the thread for coils, is there one for cambers ? you don't just purchase camber (per-say)  camber is the measurement of the slant/incline of the wheels, as in the top of wheel leans in toward the car and the rear sticks out away from the car. ^like said before that when you lower a car the geometry of the suspension as altered therefore camber is created/changed (elementary explanation but you should get the gist) that being said you can buy CAMBER BOLTS for our cars, which are used to correct for over negative/positive. So in a sense you could uses the bolt to purposely ADD camber  And back to your setup, very nice  should be sick once loweredQUOTE (trdproven @ Apr 21, 2012 - 7:07 AM) whats the offset on that red celica 17x10?

QUOTE (Salica @ Feb 21, 2009 - 2:25 PM) Springs with shipping where 133dollars cause i lived close to the store. I got the shocks from ebay. Regarding your clunking, most of the time when there is clunking it is either a blown shock or a broken strut mount. most likely the strut mounts are bad. im going through this problem now, recently changed my sway bar link because this mechanic told me that was the problem and definitely wasnt.. -90$  |

QUOTE (diegohiga @ Apr 12, 2012 - 7:13 AM) They wont fit man sorry.. they are already et20 if you add 20mm spacers the offset will become et0 and is going to stick out more. When you add spacers the offset goes lower no higher. They will fit but you wont be able to lower it too much because even if you roll the fenders tbe wheels will hit because they are going to be sticking out a lot! Tbey are nice wheela though! they are actually et25, dont know if that will change anything, but thanks alot on the info,.. i guess the image i had in my head of what they would look like on my car isnt possible. so i wouldnt even be able to ride with them with oem suspension...? QUOTE (Tigawoods @ Apr 12, 2012 - 8:44 AM) i bet he could do it if he worked on the fender quite a bit, and found the sweet spot with the camber and ride height its definitely not plug and play though yea i now see that its not gonna be easy and a lil more costly than the rims themselves.. any ideas where i might be able to get some camber kits ? QUOTE (jordisonjr @ Apr 12, 2012 - 9:11 AM) Your going to need some SERIOUS fender work, and lots of luck, to have this coming even close to fitting.. im gonna have to search and find a good shop for this.. question is, how much can i pull a fender before it starts looking ridiculous.. QUOTE (Tigawoods @ Apr 12, 2012 - 9:26 AM) Do it LOL, this made me laugh, im gonna try my best.. very determined ! |

Hello 6GC, hope u guys can help, i just purchased Miro stp1 Rims, size-17x10 all around with an offset of 25, and falken ze-912 215/35zr17 Tires, pictures below... i have alot of wheel shops around my area that are telling me its not possible to mount them,..according to the info givien in this sticky i should be able to =) Now here is my confusion, for the front riding on 10' my offset should be et+45mm, if my offset on the rims are 25, does this mean i need 20mm spacers to add up to +45mm,.and for the rear i will need a 5mm spacer...? not sure how to calculate the offsets. FOR THE FRONT WHEELS ONLY **Your fronts should have been rolled from the factory. 9.0+ will probably need a bit of a roll to crush the plastic liner in a bit. 10.0" ---------- et+45mm (At this point, you will need negative camber, a good fender pull and probably better off with a +35ish offset and going with wide fenders.) FOR THE REAR WHEELS ONLY **You need to roll your fenders for all of these. 10.0" ---------- et+30mm (Will start to cut it close with the strut. Negative camber may be needed. My best guess is you will be alright)  <br><br> <br><br> <br><br> |
