OFFICIAL AGGRESSIVE OFFSET THREAD

@7th Initial; I just put on 17x9.5 et38 in the front and 17x9 et35 with 235/45/17 tires. Crappy picture and I'm not that low but it might help you. Don't mind the pinkness haha

@7th Initial; I know your thinking about rpf1s but what about 18x9.5 nt03s? IDK if its just me but i actually like the 18x9.5 more. Definitely more room to go lower though on that ms3 in the pic.

After looking at some others with the 18s I'm leaning towards the 17s because il sit low/ more how id like to sit rather then be 4x4 status with the 18s. Opions? Heres 18x9.5 245/35/18. These are only 17x9s 255/40/17 but it gives you an idea

I know with 18x9 I had very little room between the inside of the wheel and the coilovers. Like not even a finger width. I would think if you ran 17x9.5 you might have some clearance issues up front. It had about 1/2" of poke outside the front and rear fenders but looked awesome.

I clear the front strut with a 5mm spacer for my 17x9.5. But it's a really close fit with my 235s

Thanks man, definitely helps, you would by chance have a side profile shot of the car?

That MS3 looks good but I'm just not a huge fan of the nt03s. Not my style

From what I've read seems like anyone running a x9.5 are using a 3 or 5mm spacer up front which could be for that reason.

close fit due to tire rubbing on the coil?

I can grab one for you when I get home tonight! Well close fit for the wheel. The tires are stretched a bit but I'm pretty sure a 245 would fit

@7th Initial; go go go! 255/40 i believe. I'm waiting for spacers so I can get my rpfs on my 6.

17x9 with 255/40s that doesn't look bad at all. definitely gets the look I'm trying to achieve. you wouldn't happen to know if the offset is +35 or +45?

[carlossjr]

Holy hell lol how much fender work did you have to do to make them fit?

Imma be running 18x9 +25 with some 245/40 tires, but there's no way I'll be that low

[rwelsh]

Thanks to @Boost Addict;

Haha to each their own...I like it

[MY DICK IS SMALL-beautfpowers@gmail.com]

how many degrees are you actually running front and rear, im going to add some camber but not more than 3 degrees, i still have not decided

I don't mind the rims themselves though. Different design, original...

Front is like -3 rear is like -9......not everyone's cup of tea around here

[MY DICK IS SMALL-beautfpowers@gmail.com]

im slightly worried about cambering, i want to for a few reasons,

1st i know that i need to camber the front to get a more even tire wear which is the main reason i bought the adjustable joints in the front

2nd i think a little camber looks sexy, i wouldn't run -9 but hey its your car so do what makes YOU happy in it

3rd we all know the 6 understeers and in adidtion to my RSB i think a few more degrees negative in the front will help this car act like its awd

4th i like to go fast on turns too and with the size of my tires im not worried about loosing straight line acceleration due to too much camber, and i perfer to loose traction going straight 35 ( not that i will) than in a turn at 80, camber should help

maybe since you have done this you can answer this, will the camber make me rub more in the back or will it help, i have a hard time grasping this in theory and i want to get it right the first time

now to you camber master

Running camber will help your tires clear the fender

[MY DICK IS SMALL-beautfpowers@gmail.com]

can you elaborate for me

i just feel like for my particular situation this wont be the case, i think you would have to see my car to understand,

[Mazdazilla6]

@fxyxdx; You will probably be fine with -1.5 to -2 on the rear, similar story in the front. You have tons of clearance especially with those fenders, there are people running 10in wide wheels on stock rolled fenders and still have less than -3.5 rear camber.


Also please change you avatar, I abhor looking at the default one.
