Would they be fine for a couple of months? As you can tell by the wheels, i'm on a budget at the moment.

Probably, but they are pretty low quality. If I were you I'd just wait if you have to and save for a little better grade of lugnuts, and then put them and the wheels on at the same time. Buying temporary parts is a waste of money, and I'm not entirely convinced those are steel based on the terminology.

Look at some of the lower end Muteki or Gorilla lugs. Much more reliable and won't be much more money.

I actually have the same ones, Chris, in black, they have been great for me, I've had them on the car since about '07.

Mind you, I will be upgrading to something else for the new wheels.

Casper, if you can hold off, you may was well get the ones you want from the get go, it will save you some money.

My upgrade may not be for a few months but I want to know now so I know what to keep an eye out for.

18x9 +20
18x9.5 +17

What's required for front and rear fenders at 23" fender to ground? Fronts have been rolled and lightly pulled, rears are yet to be rolled/pulled and bumper tab relocation is yet to be done. Also, what tires, 205/40 fronts and 215/40 rear or 215/40 all around?

What were the measurements from how the car sat in your sig pic?

You may want to look in to a camber kit.

Tires, 214/40 all around or maybe 225/40 for the rear.

If you are looking for more aggressive stretch, then go with the 205/40, just make sure you get tires that are forgiving/flexible enough to handle that type of a stretch.

215/40 and a roll/pull and a camber kit would help

 

[LeAccord]

In my sig pic I was about 23.5". Think 215/40 all around will be nice.

How much camber am I expecting to have to run with those specs ? Around -4 to 5?
Which camber kit had the most range of adjustment ? Or what would suit my needs ?


I hate asking so many questions .. Lol

Youll be fine without camber kits. Your low enough so natural camber will work.

If you want to be at 23" all around I would go with a 205. the front might not need a pull but deff a roll. the rear will def need a roll and probably a slight pull. you might be almost tucking rim at that height.

 

[LowerMyCG5]

On the 9 a 205 would work but it wouldn't be necessary. My boy matt (fattmatt on here) had 215 on his 17x9 +20 all-around. He was about 22.5-23 all around. 215/40 all around would be fine for the specs given

Alex, IF you decide to go with a camber kit, Ingalls, Wicked Tuning are some of the popular brands.

I have a WT one, although not sure that I will bother with it once the new setup is on. Not really going to be going that low to need more than a fender roll and MAYBE a rear tab relocation.
