Y33 wheel fitment question

[whabbahead9]

about to buy a Y33 Q45 from my shop teacher as soon as i sell my hunk of junk. Really looking to VIP the crap out of this car, what's the max width, height, and offset i can run without rolling fenders?

That is a loaded question still. How much camber are you willing to run? Do you want to run stretched tires, or not? Not enough information to answer this question accurately.

i would run atleast a couple degrees of camber and most definately streached tires

I can telll you that this uses the same rims that all the Q45's used over the years. You can easily fit a standards Q45 rim with the offset (I don't remember the exact size) with big tires and rims. My advise is to look for a set of FX35/45 rims in 20", that should give you the "dubs" you want and there are no spacers required. You can then mount a set of 245/35 20 front and 275 30 backs without issues. No stretch and your car will handle like crazy. Go for bigger tires if you want to make it look funny.

I would say... 19x9/19x10 et20ish would be your best bet with out rolling your fenders. 225 front, 245 rear. Something like that would be a safe bet.

would that rub tire or would i need to streach?

[BadQ45t]

You can easily fit 19" rim and tire, not sure what hte M45 rims width size is, but I can tell you that you can easily run a 245/40 19" without rubbing or anything else. The FX45 rims are 18" and 20" and both sizes can be used without fender modification. Given the age of the car and how the trouble, I would suggest you go with one of these options. You can buy very good sticky YR rated tires and the handling will be much improved.

An even bigger improvement is to put the KYB SR Specials to replace the stock struts and shocks.........
