well he kinda had to put more rubber in the rear, since its a wider wheel in the back

or was that obvious too carl?

Not necessarily. But why go with a wider wheel in the rear, anyways? Definitely not the first time I've seen someone do it. Just doesn't make sense... (shrug)

RWD poser, lol. (lol2)

Besides the fwd of a protege, the fronts have more room anyway so if u want staggered, its gotta be reversed.

I'm only staggered in tire size... but its by 20mm, and I'm sure someone will b**** about me posting the same pic... oh well.

Its been said already, but I'll say it again anyway because its fun. Theres no good reason to put the bigger wheel in the back. More space up front, helps handling more up front if you have more traction up there, it'll look far more even if you put the wider one up front... the logical decision on just about any grounds (hellaflush, function... doesn't matter) would be to go the other way around. so no, not obvious... still oblivious.

 

[justanothermp5]

actually i was being sarcastic...its CLEARLY obvious he has a wider wheel in the back, so he needs a bigger tire

i didnt say anything about the reasoning lol

 

[Wagonbacker9]

FYI, thats not 'sarcasm'.

This is my car Ozzy Mazda 323 Sp 20.
Original wheels are 16x6 offset 50

Installed wheels:
front 17X8 Offset +43 Tyres 215/45 r17 Streched
Rear 17X9 Offset +43 Tyres 235/45 r 17 Streched

Lowered with some springs but not shure which ones and how low bought it like this.
Rears rub as crazy already self roll the fenders, front rub only on speed corners.

I've always wondered what these would look like in 17's... I think I must have.

if you say so

 

[Wagonbacker9]

if you say so

THAT is sarcasm. lol well played.

 

[xDJ DUBx]

ok, devils advocate speaking: why would you put more rubber in the rear?

Since they are 9s in the back and 8s in the front, I imagine he did more width in the rear to keep the stretch the same on all 4 cornors

 

[Sliver5]

corners?

 

[justanothermp5]

thanks lol
anywho, this is the stance im shooting for, not sure if 17x8 +30 or 17x9 +30 will do though...im kinda stuck in between

 

[xDJ DUBx]

corners?

Yes, spelling owns me lol

17x9 +30 simon! Trust me!
