Alright.Lets get started.Go find a measuring tape.Got it?(assuming you have a 240)Go out side and measure your wheelbase from tire to tire or hub to hub.Then you will no longer be confused.musashin wrote:im still not getting it, apparently.
say a wheel that is the same size front and back, with tires the same size front and back.the front of the car is narrower than the back, which leaves less room under the fenders for the wheels. therefore, the wheels stick out more in the front.
am i still missing something?
I'm with you. There is less space from hub to fender in the front than there is in the back right? So if front and back wheels are same size, the front wheels should stick out more. I'm guessing the OP is rocking spacers or staggered wheels w/o knowing it. He did sound unsure of the offset.musashin wrote:i have the feeling were arguing different points here. im out. sorry for the threadjack.

and wider in the back that is why the wheels stick out more.

However, you should definitely have something to lower your car before you get wheels like these. And something for camber adjustment. Unless, it will look like
Nope, no spacer fits good.bobbyhill wrote:did you have to use spacers or did they clear stock struts?

Mine is the same, the fronts stick out more then the rear. Same setup for me Rota P45R 17x9 all around with 225/45/17 up front and 235/45/17 in the rear.

Its not much (7-10mm each side) but it is clearly wider in the front then the rear.
