Default House of the Stanced tC2's

Seeing as how the last stance thread we had got completely mucked up, we have a new one.

Post your w.i.p. on getting stanced as well as ones that have achieved the goal of being stanced. This is not a wheel and suspension thread, please do not post unless you want your tC2 to look like this:

Did you end up going with the 18x10 +20's? I keep thinking that I should have gone that route instead of the 9.5's...

Pretty much have decided on going 19x10 +42 then I can always add a spacer to get just the right fit so they don't stick out a mile!

Go with a lower offset so you dont have to deal with a spacer.

If I went with the 18x10 +20's it would only be .84 inches further out on the fender side...
which you can see from this pic, that would still have decent fitment with only slight poke...

I know I know, just worried about rubbing too much up front with the 19's the spacer route gives more flexibility on fitment. According to the offset calculator on 1010 tires @ +20 it will stick out 1.96" past stock and extend .55" in towards the shock. I wish I had a rim to test fit

I dont think the 1.7f and 2.4r is enough.
Ksports claim 4 inches of maximum low if I remember correctly.

Grab a measuring tape and see what 2 inches out looks like and .5 inches in...(you dont have to worry about the shock side, I know there is enough room back there.)

Yeah I tried that, so hard to tell without actually having a wheel there. If I went the +42 route it would only stick out 1.1" over stock but it would extend in 1.4" towards the shock, you think that would fit?

Yea you should be good with that, but your going to be getting close at that point.

Trust, low offset rules.
