I haven't had any issues with rubbing.

So just confirming really. Our front tires are the same on the same drop. THe only difference is the offset and how wide the tires are which won't affect the rub. Man I owe you all big time.

Looks good! If anything since it's a smaller rear wheel and bigger tire shouldn't it slightly stretch making it sit smaller.

The offset is the biggest factor in this... Memphis is 13mm more tucked in than you are that's why his stance on the front works lowered on swifts.

So in response I ask. He has enough clearence still for a slightly taller tire. So me having a wider offset should still allow me to sit okay. 3/4th of a inch isn't a HUGE amount. Especially if i do a little camber.

Again I could be wrong. So this is me asking. Still learning.

Your opinions :)?

Blacklisted9 11-15-2016 09:50 PM

What about a 245/35/19 on a front. That will be .5 inches shorter then the 265/35/19. Should help with the clearence of rubbing. Is that correct?

if your ride height & camber is set where you want it; do the string test & measure your current gaps.
A wheel w/4" of front spacing (front) & 5" front spacing (rear) will evenly position the wheel lip in the same spot.....so a +12 9.5"F has 4.75" of front spacing vs. +22 rear w/4.875" of front spacing= 7/8" differential......meaning that if you choose that aggressive on the front; then a 0 or +2 offset rear will make your outward wheel poke more uniform.

What is this Varrstoen brand?

Are they strong and light like their website says they are and how do they compare to the likes of the popular JDM wheels.

They seem cheap.

I know quite a few people personally who own them. They made pretty well. Under enough stress any wheel can break. Some require more stress but honestly I haven't seen anyone have problems personally.

I measured it out and from bottom to the fender center lip is 27 inches in the rear. My wheels are 26.7 inches leaves .3 inch gap

Fronts I have 26.7 inches and a 26.3 wheel height. Leaving .4 inch gap

Fronts http://i1216.photobucket.com/albums/...d911/Front.png

Like this....gaps between imaginary centerline to check your offsets.
