Okay here's my question I have looked all over the place and can't find the answer, will my 17x9 inch rims fit on my car currently with stock height and not rub and how do u think it will look running 215/45/r17 I know there's gonna be stretch but not to much of a stretch. Let me know what you guys got

criminaltc

Why on earth would you run these stance wheels and not be lowered? They are going to look terrible. None the less, yes, they'll fit wonderfully, assuming off set isn't too too too crazy low. But yeah, you're good. No rub, no issues. As far as the tires, I wouldn't run 215, not with the way this winter has been. These roads are jackeddddd up to say the least. I'd run a 225 with that 9".

1slammed_enuff4

Oh no I'm defiantly gonna lower it, I just wanted to know if I could run these rims on there for now with out rubbing, but I guess I'll just wait until I get all the ____ for it then slap them on. Thank man

criminaltc

Yeah no worries. You won't rub at all. But like I said, I wouldn't rock 'em because it's going to look terrible.

1slammed_enuff4

Alright, that's chillin, and when I do slam it I'm gonna have to camber and roll my fenders to get them to work, aren't i?

criminaltc

Oh hell yes. That is a guarentee my friend, and that is because of the 9" of course. You're offset will play a roll as well, but I would just assume rolling the fronts is going to be a for sure thing. Backs, you might be able to stuff up in there with some camber depending on offset, but yeah, fronts for sure.

1slammed_enuff4

My offset is +20,I don't wanna have to camber my fronts that much if I don't have to

criminaltc

Ehhhhh. +20... Ummm.... It might stuff in there with rolled fenders but I can't say for sure. If you are slammed slammed, I don't think so...

1slammed_enuff4

What's the lowest I could go before it would start causing me problems?

criminaltc

It's tough to say. Maybe an inch or two of tuck. I mean, I guess 9's aren't terribly bad, so you might be alright, but either way, you can just raise them to whatever keeps you from rubbing. The rolled fenders will really help. As long as you are cool doing that, then I think then you should be alright. But like I said, it's nice that you have the option to move up and down so it won't matter really.

it is really trial and error.

this was me last year on 17x9 +28

[/URL]

and i had the fronts at -1 but had to roll and a slight pull but still rubbed on full locks. the rears i added 5mm spacers in the rear and had -2.5 with roll and slight pull.

so it is all really how low you wanna go but please don't roll with 17x9 +20 with stock height. it is gonna be mexi poke like crazy.

here's my current setup but went lower recently

sorry for the crappy iphone pic

criminaltc

That looks really good 913. Clean. I like it.

1slammed_enuff4

Did you just use bolts in the front, and what kit did you use for the rear end, that's the exact look I want don't wanna have a crazy camber if I can get away with not doing it and are you lowered on springs or coils

tc913

iTrader: (2)

lowered on coils but have camber plates in the front and just stock camber arms in the rear on my previous setup. on my current setup i added camber bolts in the front and just left the stock camber arms in the rear. but right now my camber is -2.5 in the front and -3.5 in the rear so not too bad. but if you were to go +20 you def would prob have to go -1.5 or -2 in the front and around -3 or you could get away with -2.5 in the rear to clear.

this was when i was dropped on eibach springs which was only 2" drop.

[/URL]

tires were 215/45/17 and i had 2 finger gap in the front and almost 4 in the rear. so if you are gonna go +20 you def need coils to pull it off.

1slammed_enuff4

Thanks man I'm stoked that I don't have to have a big camber, not trying to burn through tires.

where do you get your alignment done and how much does it cost? I'm local to you if I recall.

I just Put 17x9 et30 on my car with 225's, 215's are just to much of a pain in the ___ to get on. I tried getting 2 different type of 215's on and couldn't get the beads to seat (good year eagle rsa's and yoko as50) I'm lowered on swift springs thats about 1.2 in the front and 1.4 in the rear and I only rub on big dips. My fenders aren't rolled.
