judging by the rear pic it looks like you still have some room on the rear. Fronts fit nice. What is your front offset running at 9" wheel? If i wanted to go 9.5 i wonder what it would be. In these pic is your rear end narrowed to 54.75?
After looking at these pic im deff doing the 18x9.5 in the front with a 275/35/18 but on the rear im still debating about 18x11.5 or 18x12. As far as the rear tires go i can just test fit a 335/30/18 and if i dont like it ill switch to a 315/30/18. so 18x11.5 or 18x12 folks? Quote:

Front backspace is the DSE recommended 6.125, one front tire just touches the frame at full turn so that backspace is max. The rear end ended up being 53.625. After I rolled the lip there's .75 clearance inside and out, I could've went with 12 in wide wheels I guess. We'll see after I drive it.

need help trying to decide what to do.
question 1 18x9.5 and 18x11.5 <<< allows me to go to a 315/30/18 if needed or 18x9.5 and 18x12 <<<< 18x9.5 is the recommended width on a 275/35/18 or 18x10 and 18x12 <<<< widest rim size. pushing limits on how low i can go question 2 hidden hardware or not on a titanium center with polished lip? question 3 zx3r or zx3p? why? <<< i sorta like the zx3p bc they make the rim look bigger if you look at these two pic notice how theres more lip on the bottom pic front rim than the 1st pic. This is the only way i would want a step lip is if i have that lip right before the center part of the wheel http://i1161.photobucket.com/albums/...s/IMAG0035.jpg http://i200.photobucket.com/albums/a...gelines007.jpg |
titanium center and inner, engraved color titanium centercap, hidden hardware, hoping to get alittle more lip on the front
the only thing that is left is my wheel size. 18x9.5 and 18x11.5, 18x9.5 and 18x12 or 18x10 and 18x12?????? after looking at "dust off" and "blue hour" im leaning towards 18x12 and 18x10 but if i go with 18x11.5 its a easier transistion to a 315/30/18 if i wanted too http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c3...nrld19/ga3.jpg http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c3...st32012020.jpg |

well i received the tire tool from syborgTT and thank god that i did. The rear 335/30/18s fit but man is it tight. Almost to tight to my likings. With the really low ride height that i want i feel that its better to stick with a 18x11 wheel in the rear and run a 315/30/18. The fronts i want to stick with the 275/35/18. its the perfect overall look for me. Now its just time to find the front offset using a 18x9.5.

confirmed 18x11 with a 54.75 dse quadralink should use 5" backspacing
Now 18x9 67 and 68 camaro should run 6.125. with a 18x9.5 i think my rep told me 6.375. Does that sound right? with a 6.125 would what pull the rim in more or push it out towards the fender? Would that really make a difference between the two? |
My advice, run an 18x9 with 6.125" backspace. If you want the car to sit low that will help minimize the amount of times the tire hits the control arms. You are only going to lose maybe a 1 or 2 tenths of an inch of tread width by going with a 9" wheel over a 9.5" wheel.

Time to find some tires. 275/30/18 and 315/30/18 sizes. i wish they made the kdw on the rear but they dont. looks like toyo, kumho and falkens are the only real options. Opinion? |
