Bigfrog_12069 Posted October 21, 2010 Report Share Posted October 21, 2010 I want to run 17x10 all the way around but keep te same off set to be able to rotate my tires. I was thinking +12 offset. The wheels are 5Zigen FR01R-C brz. http://www.performanceplustire.com/products/wheels/searchType/searchByBrand/manufacturerID/259/productID/6910 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NudeLobster Posted October 21, 2010 Report Share Posted October 21, 2010 17x10 +12 will be good for the rear, maybe a 25mm spacer if you want flush, but 10 wide will not fit the front wheel wells. 9.5+0 wide is about max you can do without heavily modifying the wheel well. -Justin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigfrog_12069 Posted October 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2010 What type of heavy modding like??? I am going to strip the car and find any rust and start restoring it. I have no problem cutting and welding new metal in to make room for the wheel wells. Do you just need to tub the front like the drifters do for tighter turning??

thagremlin Posted October 21, 2010 Report Share Posted October 21, 2010 (edited) I was thinking about picking up a set of FNs in the same size just for spare wheels. You can make them fit with spacers and a roll/pull of the fender Edited October 21, 2010 by thagremlin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigfrog_12069 Posted October 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 Ya I plan on running 265, 275's all the way around. I don't if I have to mod the wheel wells that's a problem. I plan on doing the mr2 strut set up too, with cosmo coil overs.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patra_is_here Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 (edited) ehh, man i got 8's up front and it rubs the wheel well. I think if you run 17x10 you'd have to mod the wheel wells. which, really isn't too bad. probably take about a weekend if you know someone with a cut-off wheel and mig welder Edited October 22, 2010 by patra_is_here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toddmod Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 http://www.starquestclub.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=113602I have non- shp wheels right now running 225/50/16's up front & 245/50/16's in the back. These don't rub, all is stock otherwise. I would love to run shp wheels w/ 245/45/16's up front & 265/45/16's in the rear. Has anyone done this? The chart mentioned says the tires I'm currently running will not work? Any suggestions on this subject? I'm all ears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
