Wheel fitment thread.

depending on the tire you run the front wont have rubbing issue. i am running a 215/45 in the front and have rubbing issue on big bumps only on the fender liner. if you're only doing a inch lower you will be fine.

This is how she sits now. As you can see there is a bit of room to poke out more

Hey guys, quick question.

Right now i have 17x8 +38 w/~5mm spacer in front and 17x9 +42 in the rear. The rear fenders are already rolled and I have a set of HSD coilovers that are running about a 1" drop. Its pretty tame and i want something more agressive

After seeing Rush's car, i really want some MB Battles but im not sure whether to go for the 17x9 +30 or 17x9.5 +15. Also thinking maybe 17x9 +30 in front and 17x9.5 +15 in the rear.

the 9.5 +15 option will stick out an extra 27mm in the rear and 18mm in the front which doesnt sound too bad for the rear but not sure of the front will rub

I have a sedan so I would rather not have to pull the fenders and overfenders are kinda out of the question.

What's your opinion on this?

Edit: would prefer to avoid negative camber
This is how it looks pre-coilover, its about an inch lower now but I dont have pics as i lost my phone

Completely clueless as to wheel fitment but would anyone be able to tell me how a 18x8" rim with 35mm offset would fit on a gts sedan? I don't have rubber for them at the moment or I would just test fit them.

8s would be slightly inside if not flush with the fenders.

I need some help guys. :/
Will 17x8 +35 with 225/45 all around fit on an R32 GTS-T?
Picked up some rims with tires, planning on changing rubber size soon though.

yep you will have no problem with those

God help you if you hit a pot hole. How many attempts did it take to get those beads to seat?

17x10.5 +2 front and rear
205/50/17 front and rear

stock fenders with a little pull in the rear

Thanks for the pics! That's about the amount of stretch i'm looking for.

I'll run 235/40 up front and 245/40 in the back. If I have to i'll just do the fender work. I'd rather not sacrifice grip by going smaller.

he's into euro now. it still sits the same way with the new owner.

[Nismo_line]

depends on how low you go but i am running a 215 all the way around and with fenders rolled. i just clear in the front. I would do a 215 in front and 225 in rear.

This is rush's old gts with 9.5 mbs. check page 22 for specs

[Jezu21]

Thanks for the info!

Do you have any pictures of those wheels fitted? Just so I can get an idea of what kind of room I'd be working with.

[Jezu21]

Hey fitment experts, I need some help choosing tires!

I'm getting 17x9.5 +15 mb battles. I'm wondering what size tires I should run to avoid rub in the front and back. All fenders are rolled already, and car is lowered.

I'm thinking 245/40 for the rear. But I'm not sure what to do up front. 215? I'd like to avoid too much stretching, as it makes me iffy for hard cornering.

Thanks for any help, chaps!

Edit: Reading through I see a guy has got the battles in the same size. 215 seems a little too much stretch for me. I may just go 225/45 front and raise the car up a bit to avoid rubbing.
