i have read the faq and some post on this and im more confused then when i started...I am looking for the front offset and the rear offset...i would like both rims to come out and sit even with the edge of the fenders

if a 17x7 ins't a good size to use on the rears to achive the look i want...should i use a 17x7 ??offset in the front and a 17x7.5 ??offset in the rear

if im going at this all wrong what set up would you recommend for me to achive the look i want

thanks any help will be greatly appreciated

 

et35 front and et25 rear for 17x7

I'll tell you right now that 17x7 +25mm offset in the front will be close, but will not be *perfectly* flush. And a 17x7 +25mm offset in the rear will definitely be tucked. A staggered setup with wider wheels and lower offsets will get you in the ballpark.

so M@ how tucked is 17x7 et25, and may i ask where in the hell do you find all of these tricked out xb's i saw that lava sittin on cinco nueves and all i can say is sick to death. i'm looking for some ideas mostly sporty look is what im going for now so any help would be great.

 

Here's a pic so you can see for yourself how the 17x7 +25mm offset looks on an xB. Notice how the front is pretty close, but the rear is definitely tucked.



As far as finding pics go... Van gets credit for the Noblesse on 19's. I seem to find most of my pics when looking for JDM parts.

do you mostly goto sites that are in japanese. do you know how i would go about ordering parts from overseas? i have found some dope ___ ____ but my japanese isn't very good anymore . is shipping killer? will it take long to get? do alota places ship to regular customers in the u.s.( like not wholesale or dealers)?

 

I have the same questions NC ~ I was able to convert the JAP SITE to AMERICAN but have no idea what else to do, I sent them and email and no response. I seen some snizzle snit that would make the Lava Unique to say the least .....

 

ET explanation:


www.value-caraudio.com seems to be able to get just about anything. Try him before you send a zillion emails with no response directly to a Japanese company that will likely only sell to dealers. Takakaira.com is a japanese retailer that will ship to individuals in the U.S.
