TOO LOW?!

[Future_gohan]

thanks for your reassurance! ha im getting mixed reviews from people on this-i dont know the offset on my current oem wheels but they are SOO close to my coilsim just thinking +35 will be dangerously close as well

It all depends on your coils aswell. and when your checking clearance check your rims at full lock both ways. i ran 17x7.5+40 rims and they didn't hit my coils but hit my tension rods.

So yeah, if you end up needing a spacer, it won't be much.

[nismobenzo]

hmm...anyone else here with some wider wheels??i dont have the money for spacers uggh..

[Chris28]

I have x8 +9 and they fit fine. Far away from everything.

x8 is by no means wide. I don't think you'll have a problem.

yeah, thanks. im not too worried about the 18x9.5 fitting in the rear..but the 17x9+35 im worried about clearing in the front..i might just have to post a bulletin asking about those specs clearing with no/minimal spacers before i fully decide on getting them..im sure other people on here have these..

EDIT! the guy on rimtuck who has these specific wheels replied!i asked if he needed spacers and he said:The spacers were necessary for the wheels to actually LOOK good haha but the fronts definitely did need spacers to clear the coilovers. The rears, not so much but it will look s***ty if you don't.

so im hoping ill be fine i dont like these wheels much but i dig the price/width lol

[ILoveMyRHS13]

Yeah, just start a new thread. That's always a great idea.

whats your price range for rims? if you don't wanna shell out the extra cash buy different rims, xxr offers newer offset/widths and mb battles are 17x9.5+15 and dirt cheap

[nismobenzo]

im only choosing this specific setup of 962s because they are $10 under my $600 with shipping budget. i ordered the 17x9 006's about 3 weeks ago but i lost my job last week so i wont have any extra money to upgrade or id be getting P45Rs not too many good choices out there for 4 lug in that price range

i found some 18x8 tenzos for 110 a piece..not to bad..kinda temping if the offset wasnt 45 =0

I hear that... I tried finding some 17x12.5's for the rear...... price made me sick.....

[nismobenzo]

oooooh did u get them?? must see pics if you did ;D

yesss! this email just made my entire week better!

"Your order for the XXR 006 wheels will be shipping out tomorrow 3/31/10.You will receive tracking at the end of the shipping day."

[nismobenzo]

soo now good tire sizes for dangerous/bumpy roads??225/40??

[StandardProspect]

Are they 17's? Beacause it might be hard to find a 225/40.

What are the wheel sizes?

[nismobenzo]

17x9+20im thinkin about something in that size area..slight stretch but not huge

[Future_gohan]

17x9+20im thinkin about something in that size area..slight stretch but not huge

Do a 45 sidewall, and for a 9in wheel with a slight stretch i'd go with a 225/45. I do a 225/45 on my 9.5in rims and its a good stretch

[nismobenzo]

are they the ones in ur sig??they look great so thanks for the suggestion!my friend has 215/45/17 on his 17x7 so i was thinking something around 225 woulda been a slight stretch on a 9"

i cant wait for these..like literally..i dont wana wait ha

I'm running a 235/45 on the front, which i regret, and a 225/45 in the rear, like the rear fitment betterrr.

[nismobenzo]

do u have 18x9.5? i might even go down to 215/45 on the frontsmy wheels come in saturday so i have a few days to do research on rimtuck ha

in my sig its 17x9.5, and i like the 225 stretch better, but thats because i can use less camber to fit them. your 9" will look like my fronts with a 225.

[240ant]

good s*** i love droped cars..the 240sx looks to sexy dumped

[nismobenzo]

205/215 on 17x9

215/215 17x9

225/235 17x9

235/245 17x9

...so many decisions...

maybe 215/235...hmmm

I just got 235/40 r 17 for my 17x9 sportwax. The rear is great, dont even need to roll or pull the fender (but im going to so i can run a small spacer. The fronts however are going to be a pain. I dont have wide fenders (if i had the money they'd be on my car in a heart beat), and with the amount of spacing required to clear my coils it looks like ill be doing a lot of pulling and rolling. Im not as low as you, but decently low. If i get a chance ill take some pics sunday. Good luck

[nismobenzo]

sweet thanks! at least that helps reassure me of what size to get in the rears.im getting my wheels tomoro amigos! yusssss! tires sunday. mounted/balanced monday.

[nismobenzo]

well i figured out why i had such aweful camber with my current wheels..they are 15x6+45 =0 damn you oem nissan wheels!!!!since my new ones are 17x9+20 they should fit perfect without a spacer once i get tiresi found REALLY good deal on 225/45 and 235/45 so ima try those outi should have pics of the wheels on and stuff tomoro!!

[zeause]

Those are the best looking sportmax wheels imo. Guna look good man, cant wait to see it.

[crakin]
