Default Wheel specs for Air Ride

Well I finally got my air suspension at the shop waiting to go one. I also have the wheels by Niche Forged picked out, I am just undecided on the size. I do not want to have excessive camber when aired out. I do not mind some camber to fit the wheels in the fender wells, but I hate it when the car looks broken.

What size and offset would you guys recommend? Also, feel free to drop a picture of your car!

isn't the whole purpose of air to go super low and aggressive when parked?

Yes it is, and that is the look I am going for. Low and aggressive. But I am not wanting to have 1" of the inside of the tire on the ground and the rest be off the ground due to camber.

Check out Wiggins old car... iirc, he had air but with meaty tires so it was aggressive, but not stretched or anything when air'd out.

Wiggins' car attached


Advan GT Rose Gold
F: 20x10.5 +24, 285/35/20
R: 20x12 +13 (prototype spec, not sold to public), 325/30/20

Link to his sale thread (long sold):

You don't need air to fit those sizes. Just reduce the tire size a few steps and you can achieve it with camber.

On air, it's easy.

From the FS thread: he only ran those tires because Toyo, his sponsor, made him.
