The offset was reccomended by CarID. No splash guards. Everyone else says no rub with 22s. I doubt its a 2012 thing. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Car Addict

If it's rubbing on the outside of the tire, narrow tires or possibly roll the fenders. If it's rubbing on the inside of the tire, spacers. Hard to say without knowing where it's rubbing.

JoeCreole

Understood. I guess I can assume that the rubbing when backing up is the outside because it only does it when the wheel is at a certain angle. When driving, it certainly sounds like the inside of the wheel well. I'm getting close to getting rid of the wheels. It sucks because they look awesome.

Does that seem fair? Oh Btw im on 22's


:eek5:

Jbling700

Is it on coil overs now?? No offense but I don't see a difference. Maybe it's the angle of the camera.

tAdAaA

Threw away k sport coilovers and went with Megan racing way better look and better ride ( stiffer is better when this low)

tAdAaA

measure the height of your car and tell me what it is and compare the numbers.

Ghozt

looks nice man. might wanna stock some OEM CV boots unless you're planning on upgrading the axles, they're the first thing to go now with coils on

Jbling700

Oh that's why. I didn't know you had coil overs. Thought you had Eibach springs the whole time. My bad....

tAdAaA

Been on coils for two years and has not gone bad yet, this car is a lease anyway so I don't really care they will fix it if it breaks plus cv joints are $300 so that's nothing and they pop in an out easy cuz I pulled it out by mistake and popped it back in.

tadaa very nice.

are u getting any tap tap noise at the rear ?

tAdAaA

ALL coilovers make that noise due to the threads that are on the shocks but the car d ride great no bouncing when I get in it at all and the good thing about the Megan racing design is that the shock a spring travel when you lower it do it always has full travel on shock

^^^ very nice i like

tAdAaA

Wooow thats nice BBmaxi damn I love those wheels I wanna do something monoblock but still aggressive fit. My car runs all overvthere place but it comes with the territory

BBmaxi

iTrader: (1)

ya monoblock concave seems to be the more popular choice these days, on top of that this is a pretty "lean" design. "lean" as in not much metal is used for the design. Very minimal aluminum thus keeping the weight down. I weighed these and they are 28-29 lbs. Not bad for cast aluminum 20" replicas.

You can get them in a lower offset to get your fitment spot on. The max a35 can take in such a low offset, it's not even funny.

Ghozt

BBMaxi those rims look great man, nice job!! You have any issues with rear camber or anything that you corrected for?

teddyted

BBMax. Sweeeett Max!!! What size tires r u running

BBmaxi

iTrader: (1)

none of the alignment is corrected yet, it's probably running a -1.5 camber and the rears probably a -2.5.

I usually just let one side of the tire camber out and change sides and let the other side of the tire wear out. Kinda like beating camber wear at it's own game haha.




I'm slightly stretching 245 35 20 but you can easily do 255 35 20, you may have to shave the rear fenders on 255 35 20 but it will feel a little softer on the ride.

as of now, there is absolutely no rubbing. It's nuts because I'm riding super low and still no rubbing problems thanks to the camber and tire stretch.

Go ahead with your comment, I know it's full of hate! I the only reason I did this is cuz I for it like that and I can mess up a perfectly new car

Anyone know if I will rub with 245/30/22 tires on 22x8.5 wheels with +35mm offset? I MIGHT be able to get them in +45mm if that would definitely help. Not lowered and don't plan on it.

Car Addict

I have the same measurements and mine rubs a tiny bit in the front if I hit a dip too hard. The back doesn't rub at all. Yours might not rub at all since some brand tires can run a little big.

wope

iTrader: (1)

Thanks for the info..question, does it ever rub if, say, you are backing out and you turn the wheel all the way in one direction? Or is the rubbing only when you dip/hit a bump?

Thanks again,

Car Addict

nope. only dips if i go too fast.

wope

iTrader: (1)

I found out that the wheel I'm interested in also comes in +45mm offset. Would this help or hurt as far as potential rubbing goes? My options are 22x8.5 +35mm and 22x8.5 +45mm. Both would go with 245/30/22 tires. I previously had 22x9 +40mm with 255/30 and had a lot of rubbing on turns and bumps.

Car Addict

9 was probably too wide wide for a 22. maybe go to a local shop and get a test fit. 45 offset might hit the spring in the front.

wope

iTrader: (1)

Don't really have the option for a test fit, ordering online. Argh. Torn on which offset to go with. Leaning towards +35mm since you have the same setup with only minor issues, unless someone else has +45mm and can provide some info.
