Aggressive fitment anyone?!

Alright guys, after talking to Noah, I am going with 17x8.5 +30 all around with 215/40's without the link kit, then when I need new tires I will be going with 225's and the Link kit. Beast mode coming soon.

i like the size man, thats gonna look real good!

best place to get spacers from?

 

[civickilla03]

i would say that local race shops or performance shops are your best bet. thats my opinion because i dont like the hassle of internet spending and shipping.

 

[EVADE]

I say ebay

 

[civickilla03]

yea that sounds good too, just be carefull with hub bore.

Nothing drastic here. Bumper, Hood, lights, and lip will be fixed next week along with wheel paint.

I do not understand why your 8 wheels are not poking? mine do

 

[justanothermp5]

Its called camber. Mine dont poke either

and higher offset possibly

and higher offset possibly

If he just stuck the wheels on there shouldn't be any higher offset

Just got my adapters

anyone know how a 16x8.5 with a +37 offset would fit?
I would try and pair 205 or 215/40/16 tires with these as well.

My 18x8.5 38 offset fit fine so i guess that should b okay

Will fit, will be around 3-5 mm away from coil, maybe different depending on ride height..

And the proper tire size would be 215/45r16, while 215/40 will fit, they are slightly small. May affect braking and speedo

Thanks for the input guys. I only ask because i'm currently running 18x8 rx-8 wheels w/ 15mm spacers up front and 8 mm in the rears and the rim poke is pretty substantial.
