Offset choices

[jdm egizzle 6]

Ok so basically you have 17x9.5 with a +30 offset and just slapped them on(with the exception of rolling only the back with a bat)? And the 17x9 +25 offset with a 225/45 will work on these rides? I'll look into this thx

 

[jeffpanya]

depends on how low you are dropped. go with a 215.

Whether you run 215 or 225 series tires also depends on the tires you go with.

On a 9.5" rim, the stretch you are going to get is going to vary greatly depending on the rubber you go with.

Can't go wrong with stretching Falken's, specifically 912 and FK452.. because 512's stretch quite a bit more (not good if you don't like the extreme look).

Back from the dead......




So i still can't find a good deal on grids but found some p45r in 17x9 +12(only offset found in 114.3) will those work? I'm OFFICIALY on ksport suspension now! Still need rims before the car is off to paint (just incase I have to roll a bit).
What will it take to make those work? The +12 seems too low

With a 215/40 tire and -3 camber all around, and a low enough ride height, it'll work. Idk if k sports can go low enough in the rear though. You might haven to take a locking collar out.

9" + 215/225 or 215 F/R.

As stated different tires will give you different stretch.

You could always raise the car a bit to ensure that the +12 offset is sitting just right.

When I bought the ksports new I asked if I could get the rear springs changed(incase I wanted to go lower) and was told yes. Plus a buddy of mine did that to his ksports because he was going for the slammed style. -3 camber means I will have to get camber kits right? As the natural camber won't be enough? Like I've been saying I'm not trying to go "hella" flush just decent.




Basically to understand what I'm trying to do to my car is get a good concave rim, on a tire to fender height, that looks good, and is functional with out having to pull fenders NOT trying to be "hard parked"

Bit of an oxymoron here, and you may have to consider a higher offset is such is the case.

That's the only offset I can find for the 4x114.3 bolt pattern. I don't want the tires tucking I don't want to be that low, but don't want a gap either. now if the tire tucks it's ok aslong as it's only abit, now if the tire is half way in then no that's for sure. If you need pics to understand what I mean I'll take some Ina few hours.
