so i just bought my second xb and am going to drop it on df210s and want to go with either 17s or 18s. my question is what offset should i run alot of the wheels that im lookin at are a +42 is that too much or not. i like the tire to be as flush with the fenders as possible with little or no rubbing. if you guys have pics that would be great. and i read the whole sticky at the top of the page and alot of the links dont work anymore so....


oh and another question (wrong forum ) but are there any other springs that drop more than the df210s??? (not coilovers) thanks

 

That depends on the width of the wheel you want. If you get 7" wide wheels, 42 offset will be a mile from the fender. Search around the forum, but I think around 20 offset for the front and 10 for the rear would be good (unless you get OTG rear shims)

 

if i get the shims do i have to extend my studs???

 

No. The OTG shims are a spacer that mounts between the strut and the hub, so no extra hardware is needed.

From the factory, the rear track (width between the left wheel and right wheel) is about an inch narrower than the front track. The OTG shims make it the same front and rear.

You need to tell us the width of the wheel before we give you any idea as to what size offset youll need.

HKS SK5 springs have as much if not a little more drop than the Tanabes do.

17x7 will be the wheel size

and were can i find the hks springs??

 

The springs from HKS are actually the SF5. One of the cheapest places I have seen that carries them online is http://www.intensemotorsports.com They sell on the site for $239.

 

does any one have any pics???
