BlowinUp54B's Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 I've got some Bullets that are 17x8 with +32 offset, and I'm wanting to be flush but tuck rim with rolled fenders. I'm looking at spacers, but I dunno what to buy. :[ I'm looking at like a 15mm for the fronts, what to get for the rear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turborusty Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 What are bullets? I mean, besides the obvious definition. Turborusty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fanta Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 I'm thinking the Mustang Bullits ( similar to torque thrusts? ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_Venable Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 you'll need about 25-30mm up front to be flush and tuck (depending on camber), rear, your looking at a 60mm spacer to match the front Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89PalermoSHP Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 60mm... ha ha ha, good one Derek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustPaus_88TSi Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 I don't see the joke, he'd need 67mm spacers to sit how my rears do without intentional negative camber or stretched tires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dem0ntsi Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 you'll need about 25-30mm up front to be flush and tuck (depending on camber), rear, your looking at a 60mm spacer to match the front by my calculations wouldnt he need a 44mm up front? and a freakin HUGE one out back.

MoltoMario Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 Yea hes gonna need a huge one out back. My last wheel set up was a 18x10.5+24 in the rear and it needed 50mm spacers to be flush. and that rim is 2.5in wider then your silly 8s. Your definitely gonna need a massive spacer that wouldn't be safe to run. Once you get to 50mm they dont even make them hubcentric anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turborusty Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 (edited) they would have looked too skinny anyway. They did you a favor by not fitting. Turborusty Edited September 30, 2010 by Turborusty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlowinUp54B's Posted September 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 (edited) Well, I traded a set of 4 front 7'' rims that were in terrible condition w/ bad tires for some billits with 50% tread/nice tires, that are in near mint condition. I'll just sell them and buy something nicer. I'm really wanting the Cobra R's with the lip like above though, so..

Once you get to 50mm they dont even make them hubcentric anymore just because you can do something doesnt mean you should. i think marios got the correct idea here.

JustPaus_88TSi Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 You don't need rim-poked, cambered to hell, tire stretched fitment to be flush. And yes you can get rim bore and hub centric spacers past 50mm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
