Flush Fit Wheel Fitment, Offsets for Flush Fitment which is Proper Fitment Options

[WhipCreamCelica]

This guy has 18x9.5 wheels. Of course, he has a GT-Four... dunno how different the procedure would be for SuperStrut. But it's worth a PM

thats jus a PERFECT ride,.. thanks

Here are some pics of 17x10 on my ST.
BTW, i totally disagree with the look, rims are off until coils and cambers are found and bought. ..where?

Sick! im going for the hellaflush look as well. what dimensions are your wheels? what are your tire specs?

[smkr3w]

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 lowered

and if that doesnt do you'd have to heat things and bang them to get even more camber like me

then if that still doesnt get you enough then well.....the fender will just eat tire

Thanks alot guys, I didn't have any info or know anything about the cambers..


Offset is +25

[Timmyface]

Depending if the Miro 111 have room for a spacer poke, I'm really considering getting them in:
18x8.5 +35 all round. +20mm spacer in the rear.

How's this sound? What size tyres to fit them in?

[trdproven]

sounds like when you natural camber, it will still come in a bit with the angle. even sounds good if you cut/rolled your lip for slamness.

Question for those of you running 17x9 rims in the front. Offset guide says 33 is flush but the rims I'm thinking about getting come 42 or 30. What I'm wondering is if it would be better to go 42 with a 5mm spacer or go 30 no spacer, and have them stick out just slightly. Are there any clearance issues with the stock strut? I see guys on here running 9+ rims in the front but am not sure what suspension set up they're running.

I'm not so sure, but it will probably depend on how low you are. I think that if you get et30 and you are dropped and want a flush look, you might need some negative camber. If you go with the et42 and 5mm spacer you will be almost flush to the fender without needing any camber. But please correct me if I'm wrong.

New set of rims installed on my car! I took the car for a quick drive around my neighborhood and didn't experience any rubbing, but I'm sure any major bumps would cause the fenders / wheel well plastic to rub a bit.

New Rim specs : 17X9 et30
Tire specs : Falken 225/45/17

Old Rim specs : 17X7 et45

Car specs : Lowered maybe 1.5 - 2in on Tein lowering springs.

Nice.

I want 17x9's bad!

[jordisonjr]

Damn you don't rub and tis not even rolled?

[CELL_PROTOTYPE_X]

No rubbing that I noticed, but then again, I only drove through my neighborhood which has very small speed bumps. This car isn't my daily driver so I'm not too concerned but I'll probably end up rolling my rear fenders and pulling the fronts a bit if I run into issues.

Yes it will, but id you are looking the flush look you will need spacers

[Ehrgeiz]

Picking up my wheels next week. They're 18x9 ET28 front and 18x9 ET23 rear. I'll run a 10mm spacer in the rear and use 215/40/18 all around. Car will be lowered with BC Racing BR series coilovers.

Pics soon!

[mak5603]

Sounds like an awesome setup. I look forward to pics.

[Ehrgeiz]

Hehe, I can't slam it too much though.. Lotsa speedbumpers over here.

Dont forget to roll your fender or they will eat your tiress
