Concave 20's With Springs & Spacers
 
I'm looking at these:

(- Staggered Full Set - <br>(2) 20x9 Rohana RC5 Black/Machined w/ Chrome Stainless Steel Lip<br>(2) 20x10.5 Rohana RC5 Black/Machined w/ Chrome Stainless Steel Lip Wheels)

And wondering if they'd fit. I currently have the stock Rays with 20mm spacers all around. The rear spacers have the bolts as part of them, so they'd be a pain to take off. But, the front spacers will just slide off. I also have the Eibach Pro Kit lowering springs.

Would these fit? I'm thinking possibly the 32mm up front, and 40mm in rear (with spacers). (There are other offsets on the site.) I'd be getting new tires too, so any input on a good size for that would be good as well.

They also have a 19" version of these, but they're only 8.5" up front and 9.5" in rear, which is pretty skinny..

regardless if I think these look good or not, why would you buy weak *** offsets and the use spacers? why not get +15 up front and +5 in the rear in the first place?

Ahh, ok. Maybe I misunderstood how the offset worked, and, it sounds like I'd lose some of the concavity doing it with the "weak ***" offsets, haha. I'd rather do it right.. so, with no spacers but still with springs, I could do +15 up front and +5 in rear with these wheels?

Yeah I'd go +15 in the front and +5 in the rear.

Excellent. Thanks for the recommendation guys!

It also depends on what tire sizes, and how much negative camber you want to run.

nurseryboy 05-10-2012 11:54 AM

Probably around 255's on the front, 295's on the back. And I don't have the numbers in front of me, but camber is just a little more negative than factory.

Looks much better on the silver than the black z for some reason. If your tint was darker, it would be perfect.
