Question on Wheel Fitment

[ShadowsFa11]

I am about to buy some P45r's and i was wondering if 17x9 +12 would be a flush fitment on Megan Coils. I want to make sure before I purchase them.

well really it also depends on camber, lowness, and tyre selection as well as a wheel with good fitment but that p45r does offer good fitment on the s-chasis

I'd like to know this as well, that's the wheels I'm planning on getting. Would the coils you're using make that much of a difference though? I was reading someones post on here and he was running 17x9's with +25 offset.

check rimtuck.com
you'll find plenty of different combinations to find the look you want.

umm..i think he was asking about flush fitment, not really like if they would hit the coilover the offset is so low that it wont hit the coilover for sure

the coilovers matter in the amount of lowness you can go and effects the fitment

your probably gonna end up doing this to get flushness

slam car
front camber max on camber plates, rear about 2-2.5 negative
roll the lip on the fenders
205 40 17 F 215-225 40-45 17 R depending on your lowness and camber, usually would be the last step then minor camber modifications after that

Or search Nico's MANY threads on P45R fitment. Seriously. You can't go into the Wheel/Tire forum without tripping over a P45R thread.

i like to do hood rat things wit my friends and i like to smoke wit cigarettes..hahhahaha

they will fit nice
my 17x9+20s fit like a glove..BUT youll wana get a 40 sidewall
i got a 45 sidewall and had to use the pole for my jack to roll my fenders IMMEDIATELY
and they fit like this with NO suspension mods other than coilovers

^^this is you right??

haha it almost looks like your running positive camber...couldnt be though must be an illusion

camber yadamean you know yadamean you'll get better front clearance yadamean hahah

dude it sucks! i dont have camber plates on my coilovers
its not as bad as it looked in the picture but i do have positive camber slightly on the front

NNOOOOOO!!!!!! posititive camber is EVIL!

[patrickm1587]

NismoBenzo, what wheels are those? I saw someone in the wheel/tire section that was running +25's up front and +30's in the back and they looked like they fit pretty well. But then I saw someone running +12's and they had to pull their fenders a little bit. Now that was the Rota P45R's.

xxr 006s-
and obviously the lower you go-the more camber youll get

[OM3GA]

Get the +12's don't even think twice about it. Definitely run a 40 series sidewall unless you like floating on jello.

make sure you guys remember clearance of your coils to the rim as well. A 17x9.5 +15 which would be the equivilant to like a 17x9 +25 is very very close to the coil almost touching, if you are running s13 lower control arms, s14 lower control arms will help a good bit but the wheels are also gonna stick out more.

Here is my fronts 17x9 +9 with a 205/40/17 on S14 LCA's it's probably alot more camber and more aggressive than you are looking for but you can use it for reference
