would a x10+20 clear the coilover in the front? with minimal camber maybe -3* in the front

 

I have a 10 inch rim. +25 with about -2* camber. It clears just fIne

 

didnt realize this was for xb. lols

 

I've got a 9" +35 with about -1.5 camber & no issues yet...

 

I know a 9.5 will be fine but I want a 10 that's .5 less of inner clearance.

 

It's actually only 1/4" less inner clearance, as long as the offset is the same for both wheels. The difference in wheel width (in this case 1/2") is split between the inside of the wheel and the outside of the wheel. So the 10" wide wheel will be 1/4" closer to the suspension, but also stick out 1/4" closer/past the fender.

 

What issues, if any, will I run into going with 18x9 with an offset of 38? I'm only ginving it a 1.5 drop. (06 tC)

 

Wrong forum... you're asking tC national questions, but in xB2 country.

 

sorry just noticed that and was waiting to get "tore up", but thanks for taking it easy on me. ha

 

I was thinking the same thing popa. I need to pull my wheels off and start measuring. Let me know how it goes if you do it man.

 

I have 19x10 +25 pics from a mockup we did before I ordered a set of 35's for the front. without tires at stock height it clears everything just fine. That is of course with a 225/35/19.

I am about to drop the fitment pics from the BBerry to photobucket - I will try to remember to post a link.

 

this is 19x10 +25 all around. I later decided +35 for the front would be better as I had room for it.


sorry for the quality - it was a blackberry and yes those are dents. I have a SEVERELY hail damaged XB - it makes it easier to do crazy stuff if the car is paid for and already damaged. LOL

 

did you use any camber?

 

I have not as of yet. I will keep it updated though, as there is plenty of room with a 25 to clear the shock.

 

The thing im worried about is if you camber the wheel because I wouldnt want that much poke in the front would it still clear with -3. +35 compared to +25 is less then an 1.00" more back spacing. and -3 camber is going to bring that lip a lot closer. Keep us updated!

 

I will give you a for sure this week. I have 4 +25 and 2 +35's to try out. I am going to see what camber is needed for the look I am going for and will post pics of stock / cambered / insanely cambered to give you and idea of what this will look like. I am thinking the springs I am running will only be on for a short while since I may go air soon after I get this setup right. Or, alternatively I will go racelands when they are available.

 

so I got my Ksport GT's in tonight and they look legit. I will be putting them on tomorrow and snapping some pics of the setup if we can get the tires mounted. only problem I have right now is we don't have a balancer and need to put 235/35's on a 10 inch wheel. I may have them tomorrow though if I can convince my local guy to mount / balance. I also ordered shims to take it out a bit, not 3* yet - but that is coming.

 

Yeah the wheels I want don't come in x9 unless I go with a 18/19 set up but I want to run 19s all around, that way I'll have a few mm of height clearance compared to 18"s so I can daily with out a problem on coils.

 

as for the guy with the x10s all around i would of just ran camber in the front to fit the +25s.

 

same here if it worked. Papo word of advice tire prices suuuuuuuuck on 19's and without a kit the car looks too tall. If you want something to reference I can send you pics of my car without the kit all the way aired out. I really liked how your car sat with your last set-up.
