Changing wheels this weekend.

cooltoy · 09-08-2014, 09:19 PM

20x9 +32 Front
20x10.5 +25 Rear

245-35-20 Michelin Pilot SuperSport
285-30-20 Michelin Pilot SuperSport

This fitment only works well for stock height. If you are lowered, you'll need to go with lower offsets.

Yes I agree. I will be staying stock height as well... do you have any more angles of the fronts? On the rear i am thinking about going with +15... but 19's.. It looks like there is 10mm more room to push them out even at stock height, what do you think? I know its different seeing the car in real life opposed to a pic.

if you used RE11s then the tires will be more square and look better.

but you wanted to go with pss, so that's your call

im just not a fan of rounded sidewalls.

Yes I understand.. Cooltoys rears look like they could come out a bit more dont you think? The pilots look like they are right in the middle of having rounded side walls and squared is that right?

yep, if you're going to run pss or dw you could do up to ET15 10.5" 285/35/19.

but it's better to be conservative vs aggressive on stock ride, so cooltoy's setup is

in my book. it's a matter of choice of tire used. i just happen to not like sidewalls that appear rounded/stretched too much. thus i skipped the pss.

yeah i liked how your weds look so that would be the way to go in my book with the dw.. I agree it shouldn't be any thing under+15 and +35 at stock height. And i also agree the tire make a big difference.

it's a sporty look with the ET15 in the back with the DW.

the RE11s' will make the rear look real aggressive, which will be borderline fail for me, but for most folks it will get a dual

I feel that maybe a 3 mm spacer would make it look perfect (for me), but I am not going to bother with spacers over 3 mm. I'll have to live with the set up for a bit (you know eye it for a few month) to see if I am completely happy.

It looks way better then stock already. And maybe a more square tire would improve it, but I like I said I am happy with what I have at this moment..

I see, that makes sense. that would make it fit like a nismo wheel (1mm difference) which fits great as well.

They do fit much better than stock i agree, you have good offsets for stock height, a lot of people go too aggresive at stock height. great choice and nice looking wheels.

The continentals you had on your weds were more rounded than the pss.
