Wheel Fitment Thread

Im trying to fit 9.5 +24 on a coupe lowered on KSport and Koni Srt. Will 225/45 work? How much fender work will I need to do? Or should I run 215/45?

Dropped on springs with those wheel spec will be quite some poke at natural camber. Even with a pull. I would say either get wheels with more conservative specs, or get some coilovers to go lower to make them fit better. And a 215/45 will make a little more clearance. Maybe even go with a 215/40.

Up front would I be able to fit 17x9+15 tire size 205/40? This is without a camber kit and sitting at 23-24 ground to fender

At 23 ftg, you might be able to get away with a pull and natural camber. At 24, you might need a camber kit. 205/40 or 205/45 is fine.

Thanks for the help and to Truwarrior. I think my front is at like 23.5 ftg I want it to be lower but it's maxed out until I get ff type 1s. I was thinking of trading my wheels or selling them and getting square g6s. It just so happens my friend has the 17x9 +15s so I'll see how they fit when I get the chance. I forgot what his tire size is though so that might be an issue.

Would 18x9.5+12 fit up front with 215/40 with 23 ground to fender

Yeah, just roll and pull. Kevin (SleeperCell) was running 18x9.5 +12 all around on his old wheel setup.

looking at some wheels that are 17x8.5 +30

I just want something that will sit flush with little to no camber and just a roll on the fenders if needed, if anyone has a photo with this set up or any advice as to what specs I should look into it's be much appreciated

also I am putting in some f&f type 1's tomorrow finally, I've read the threads and lurked for a few hours on how to do it but if there's any little advice I'd appreciate that as well!

Since I've been searching for wheels I'll go ahead and take a crack at it.

This is the vehicle. Wanting to put these wheels on it
17x9 4x114.3 +20 offset

I'm also gonna go with the TruHart Sport Lowering Kit. If i'm not mistaken it'll be a 2.5 inch drop in the front and 2.25 in the rear.

Lemme have it. Don't mind a bit of poke either, kind of like a bit of poke out.

The listed suspension won't allow you to go low enough to fit those specs properly.

Hey, guys. I know it's late into the season (damn near the end of it, actually) but I came across a deal I could not pass up; a set of wheels with a spare and 5 90% tread tires on 'em for the lo0o0ow, since the guy was parting out his sedan and going back to stock.

Trying to follow the format for this thread now..
1- I don't have pictures of fitment on my car, but here are some that I snagged off the seller's facebook.


2- Ride Height wise, my fender-to-ground is just below 23.5" all around. My rears rub over railroad crossings and the like, but I'm running 32-way adjustable coils and can dial in the appropriate settings as needed.
3- Running natural camber at the moment, but I'm hearing that a Wicked Tuning rear kit would be ideal. Not sure about what'll be needed up front though.
4,5,6- Front: 17x9 +25, Rear: 17x10 + 20 - all 4 are on 205/45-17 Federal Super Steel 595. The spare is a 3rd 17x9 +25. (considering selling this btw, if anyone is interested).

So I already know that I can't just slap these wheels on, obviously. My goal is to have them fit as closely to the pics above, while running slightly less negative camber because 1. I think the PO's rear settings are a bit excessive and he said he was hitting his coils, and 2. I don't really care about scraping frame. I live in NJ, and I've already gone through 3 seperate headers lol. Btw - I did search and couldn't come up with any ideal specs with the keywords I was using. If anyone has any input, useful or otherwise, please feel free to share! This will be my first aggressive setup and I want to make sure I get it right.
