Okay, I got another one. I just bought these wheels...

Got them from Mark over at Ravspec. I bought them used, theyre the ones that are on that car in the pic. So, obviously I know they'll fit, but Im wondering if they'll fit MY application....

Theyre 20x9.5 +15 and 20x10.5 +0

I dont want to stretch the tires if possible. And Im running stock height and suspension completely. I'd like to run a 295 on the back if possible, what do you guys think? Will it fit or did I just jump the gun and screw up? Thanks!

Nice! Love the Gnosis wheels. At stock height, I don't think you should have any problems. Although, I'd recommend a mild drop to really accent the rims.

WHEW. Thank you! I was about to start freakin. I will drop it some, just bought the car so the first thing I wanted to change was the wheels. lol. So a 295 in the rear will work? What about the front? MArk advised that I run a 255/20 and a 275/25. I was hoping to go wider.

Same rear offset as my pics a few posts up and 5mm's less in the front. I'm on swifts and running 255/35--295/30 take a peek.

Awesome. The wheels should be here early next week then I'll go down and get some tires. Thanks for putting my mind at rest guys, cant waitntonget these on the car.

Also, do I need to buy new lights or do the stockers work? If I need new ones, what kind should I get?

Hello, I have bought varrstoen es222 rims 9.5/10.5 +12 all around. Before I did the research. I'm pretty sure I know the answer. But can I go 265 on the front I'm going 305 on the rear eventually but for right now I have 285s on the way as well as 10mm spacers.

Sorry, stupid auto correct on my ipad. I meant "LUGS"

KaienZ34 · 04-26-2013, 11:00 AM

Most stock lugs won't work on aftermarket wheels and vise versa.

dc3843 · 04-26-2013, 11:58 AM

OKay, so who has a line on a good set of lugs for these wheels? What do you guys recommend?

Lugs are basically all the same. Its all about name brand and color. I use a set of the BLOX aluminum lugs since they were cheap, lightweight, and purple! I'm not one to spend $200 on lugs lol.

Just want to bounce this off the group, it is nothing outrageous, but it;s a new area for me. Have read lots of the tires threads all for interesting and confusing at the same time, but I think I have gotten it.

current setup
Sports Package, with stock Rays, nimso sway bars
no changes planned for now..

The car is DD and I autocross about 3-4 times a year, no track days yet.

Thinking of the following setup

Michelin PSS
or
RE-11

265/35/19 up front and 305/30/19 rear

Also no spacers, any recommendations on spacers

Thanks for reviewing and remember to drive it hard, then harder

Skidracer87 · 04-26-2013, 05:07 PM

Anybody? Will 265 fit?
