Hey i was wondering if these would rub. http://www.wheelsnext.com/product.phtml?p=1583

i have tein s techs
thanks

 

Yep...good luck

 

well i havent gotten them yet. Do you think the 18's will rub too?

 

Not as much...I have the stock 17 size aftermarket rims with the s.techs and the only time i rub is if i have two or more passengers with me and going through some ruff terrain. Without passengers i can handle a lot more buts its close, so with 18's just make sure and take everything slow till you figure out what it can do. Id also recommend get some real low profile tires.

 

lab do you have any pics, i wanna see what aftermarket 17's look like.
thanks

Im at work and thats the only one i have up here. In that pic the front wheel is cocked sideways a little making it look like theres a bigger wheel well gap then there is. Ill have to post some more in a couple of days if you want different angles...just moved and the internet isnt up yet.

Thats why I picked TRD springs, they are perfect drop. No rub at all with my 18". But there is a lot to do with the offset of the wheels. Check that out too!

 

TRd springs 1.25 F/R

S.techs 2.4 F 2.0 R

You'll still have a higher center of gravity with the TRD

Big difference

Ok... Being a vendor for parts and an owner of the HP wheels I'll give you some info on this.

With a 1.4" drop with 18x8s front and rear you will rub. This is mostly due to the large offset. I'm running this combination and it rubs under very aggressive driving or a decent dip.

19" HP wheels... You may find the standard 19x8 for your car but... You can not use staggered wheels from HP. They do not manufacture a 5x100 bolt pattern with a staggered wheel size because no car with our bolt pattern actually needs it. Axxis is one of the few to do it.

The picture you see advertising staggered fitment with a 5 lug pattern is for a 5x114.5, which is usually found on larger, AWD or RWD cars.

Hopefully that helps so you don't drop $2k to find out you can't drive on them. Good luck with your decision.

 

man...i wanted the evo's...but my car will be very low soon. even lower than it is now. sigh.
