so i am about to buy some new wheels..

[Cameron]

I am thinking about getting the Motegi Touge wheels 17x9 and i have searched and i am also prolly gunna buy some coilovers... but if i decide to wait on coilovers until i get some extra money up i was wondering would 17x9 wheels with 235/45R17 Kumho Exsta's fit with a stock susp.? please help me out cause if i can get an answer ill be ordering tomorrow, and coilovers will be ordered soon after... just tell me would that setup fit my stock susp.

Thanks

[newfengshui]

i have no idea!

sorry bro, the idea that this might be the only time you can get advice. and my stupid *** is the only one here to help saddens the car community.

if all else, go into your local tire store, ask them to try one of those out. then say you're not interested after they do it =D **** 'em!

[Cameron]

its ok man if youll read in the thread of yours im real desperate for an answer lol...

[yokota180sx]

we need an offset kid

[dickie]

or post this in the wheel and tire tech section... eh ill just move it for you.

MOVED.

[slik_s13]

i say if they have a lower offset they will fit, 20 or lower. and then if your gonna run coilovers you will get more clearance so i think you will be alright just get a good offset 20 or lower.

[Cameron]

the offset on them are 24.

[bone_stock_240]

Ummmm. Coilovers give less clearance. The lower spring perch rubs on the side of the tire if you size it wrong. With shocks and struts, the spring perch is over the top of the tire, so sticking with stock diameter is your concern there.

[slik_s13]

my bad your right. dont listen to my dumb ***. haha

[Cameron]

well i just got an email from the company that i was gunna buy from and they said they would fit in the back but not in the front.. If motegi only made a 17x8 touge wheel it would all be fine... So really my only other option is to get the 18x9 in the rear and 18x7.5 in the front... i really dont wanna stagger them but if that plan fails i guess ill get the DV5... what do yall think of that wheel.. i like it and all its just the curvy spokes that sorta make me not...

Touge



VS.

DV5



i just dont like the fact that the DV5 has no lip at all...

[yokota180sx]

lip is for people who care

id lke to see a fullface wheel on an s chassis.that would be badd ***. nice concacve face with like a 10+10 offset....itd be baller as hail

[Cameron]

lol sorta like this?

[Cameron]

this is pissin me off..... i want damn wide wheels all the way around, but i dont know if they would fit right... I am not wanting to stagger them......

17x9-up front

17x9-rear

the same all the way around....

The offset on those wheels are +24

i am running a stock susp. and i want them to not rub anywhere.... brakes, springs, nowhere...

god, i have been searchin for this answer forever almost 3 days now, and i have emailed dealers and they said no.. but of course there gunna say no on a wide wheel...

Just please if you can help me get this annoying question answered... I will be soo happy...

Yokota what would you say?

Fit or no fit?

If they wouldnt fit what in the world would i have to do to make them fit... Add a negative camber up front? I dont have any coilovers to make that happen so can i camber stock susp...? Do a fender roll Pull??? Add Spacers??? if so what "mm" size??? Wheels and tire fitment are not really my expertise... I can pretty much do anything else to work on a car...

Just looking for an Answer.... yawn...

17x9s +24 offset Stock Susp.. Fit? yes, no?

[240Kid4]

If you have stock suspension then I dont think it will fit in the front I have 17x9 in the front with coils on and I needed a spacer to clear the coils and my z brakes. The wheels are sportmax 006 17x9 +35

[adrianfromthecastle]

17x9 +24 will fit... yes

your better off trying to get like +14 (10mm spacers) or even like a +4 (15mm spacers), but that's just me (they'd fit without a pull)

[Cameron]

thankyouthankyouthankyou, no coils needed right? and they would stick out? cause i have opted to go ahead and buy coils and buy wheels later but are you 100% sure? If you were me would you feel comfortable running this setup with a stock suspension? if you are 100% sure your the man man, and they would not be sticking out like a spanish lowrider would they?

[adrianfromthecastle]

17x9 +24 wont stick out... they'd actually be pretty flush on a zero camber, at least I'd think so

[nismofly]

roll your fenders and get 5mm spacers on them if you dont want to play with the fenders too much

run a 235/40 tire and get it nice and low and run like -2 camber from, -1.7 or so rear, and itll sit nice

9 +24 might not clear depending on the coilovers you get...but not very good chances of them clearing, whereas 9 +19 the spacers would make will clear pretty much most coilovers

[Cameron]

yea, guys, thanks a lot for the help im glad i got some moderators to help me out on this one, and i will be running no coilovers til i can buy some which may be a month, but thank you adrian and thank you nismo, yea thats the camber i was thinking of running if and when i got coilovers, but thank you guys

[yokota180sx]

more like those, but they arent even the ones im talking about

regardless you need to make sure the face design will clear your brakes.then, get the damn wheels, if they rub, use spacers

if you want them, get them...i buy my **** new now so i dont worry about it, i get the offset and face i want....wayyyy easier

[Cameron]

yea, im just gunna buy em, if they rub ill get spacers, if they still rub ill just buy some coilovers, and set a negative camber... **** it im getting them... but yoko look at the O.Z's these are niiiice

[yokota180sx]

eh..Oz is good for sport wheels, not Lux
