Wheel Fitment & Question Thread

I measured my wheel widths yesterday for the first time.. I was thinkin I had like 9" fronts, 10.5" rear... wrong
10" front, 11" rear.. no wonder my fronts rub so damn much.

Rim size and offset should be stamped somewhere on inside of the wheel (most of the time on the spokes) Measuring with a tape measure is not accurate. I don't think they made the rim you have in 10", or 11" (?)
I think the measurement should be the bead to bead.
From a quick Google search
Rim width is the distance between the bead flanges (inside to inside, not outside to outside).

Thats what I measured. (Outter bead -> Outter bead) - 2(beadwidth). I'll have the wheels off again tomorrow probably so I can double check.. but a 255 front tire is stretched a little bit.
I'm sure these will fit just fine, but I'll ask anyway:
18x9.5 38mm all around on lowered suspension. Also anyone running this.. and what size tires? I'm OK with rolling front fenders if its needed.

Yeah, 10+0 might take a little work to fit. Nothing a little camber couldn't fix, depending on tire size. But I guess that's about 3/4" further out than what I'm running now, so maybe a little pull and a touch of camber might do it.
Yeah with a little more camber and a shaved fender lip and I would have been set.. my main draw back was that fender lip though.
:wavey: minimal rubbing issues in the front. plus, your car looks more aggressive IMHO :icon_biggBorHor;967991 said:
I will add tips to wheel fitment in the first post when I get some time. Since it seems like there are still many wheel threads popping up and people not wanting to post in here.
This may be quite the task, but how about consolidating all the different fitments and associated pics to date onto the first couple pages of this thread? Or create a new thread with info only :aigo: That way it would be easier for everyone. Just a suggestion. I'd be willing to help.
