Springs + 0 finger gap + -1* camber = rubbing.

 

+ no fender roll = more rub =)

 

i see tire shreads in my lip of my rims.. need to run some camber somehow... gotta do the washer trick on mine

 

I'm not sure if I should roll them or just put the camber at -3. Either one would solve the problem at my ride height.

 

roll them! keep the aggressiveness, camber will make them sunk =(

 

True. I gotta wait a couple weeks before I have access to a fender roller though.

 

^ $60 roller on eBay.. Just ordered mine. You can get a heat gun for less than $20 too.. Which means less than $80 in a fender rolling kit. Jus' sayin'

 

Why buy one when I can use one for free?

didnt notice youre on stock fenders. damn i didnt even buy my wheels til i rolled my fenders. get er done jon!

 

I still find myself amazed how you guys daily drive on such aggressive fitments. I envy it!

Do you guys know of any 17 inch wheels with low offsets? better yet, and 17x7 with low offset?

 

go wide 17x7 is stock size

 

17x7 would just look wrong flush...skinny ___ rims you couldn't even get a proper stretch :/

 

I don't expect to reach flush with 17x7. But I do want to go as wide as possible in that size without needing spacer. So thats probably like +40 offset?

 

A 40 offset is only 5mm closer to the fender than stock. Pretty much unnoticeable.

 

I could always buy TCPete's BBS wheels.

But really. If anyone knows of low offset wheels that will show a noticeable difference at 17x7 (so I can keep my new tires), and aren't too expensive, please let me know.

 

You'd have to find a 17x7 with a +10 to be close to flush. You could go with a 17x8 and a +25 offset and still keep your tires.

 

give me 1600 bucks and ill drive to west palm beach and drop them off this weekend

mines were +30 and pretty close with a 5 or 10 mm spacer you'd be flush as ***** @ +25 or +20

 

The tires are on 17x7 stock rims... how could I use them on a 17x8 rim?

EDIT: Google magic. "stretch" refers to stretching a narrower tire over a wider wheel, the sidewalls stretch from the lip to the tread.

It's amazing how much I DON'T know about this stuff. Will any shop do this?

Pete... If you still have these when I save up some more cash, I'm holding you to that drive.

 

heres my stretch 225/40/18 on a 9.5inch wide rim, its pretty comman, and looks clean imo
