What offset will make the wheels flush with the fenders?

40? 35?

Thanks

 

40mm won't make much of a diffrence, since our 18'' are 8'' wide at 40mm...

 

So will a 35mm offset fit? 245/35/20 on a 8.5

 

it would, but prob not flush like you want...

 

Well closer to the fender lip than a 40mm right? But no rub?

 

Nope no rubbing. 20x8.5 with a offset of 35 is what I'm running with 245/35/20 tires.

 

How does it look? Flush? Pics?

Thanks for the help, making a purchase real soon.

 

You can check my pics here to see how they look. http://home.comcast.net/~boone8576/

 

Thank you that helps!

 

nice, I like black on black....

 

Pardon me Boone..but....THOSE ARE TWENTIES!!!?!?! Im sure the pics dont do them justice, id liek to see a side shot. Looks real good.

 

That is the same thing people say when they see them in person. Between the fact that they are black and the lip, they look smaller. But yes the're dubs. I'll do a side shot tomorrow when the light is better. It's getting starting to get dark right about now.

 

Thanks. I just have to get rid of that stupid gap now.

 

Yes it would look so much better. I miss my baby so much.

 

Hows the ride on 20" compared to 18?

 

I'm running the same as Boone...
Here's the best pic I found that gives you a good look...

 

What is that offset on yours?

 

 

OK so they must be 35mm, lets just make sure.

 

that's cool, I understand with something big like this. you could pm him to double check, which would guarantee he sees your question.

anyone with 19's and want to post their specs? trying to further detail the wheel sticky. especially since we're getting so many wheel questions.

thanks.

 

Yo Blax, whats the status on your fix? Should be done soon, right?

 

You got it 35mm.

Nismo has the eye, he knew what I was saying...

 

It is not much of a difference that I can tell except for a little additional noise when going over expansion joints. There is also a little more feedback coming through the wheel from the road surface.

I believe the brand of tires also plays a big role. I have been told that some brands have softer sidewalls than others so I am sure this would make a difference. No matter what, when you are running 35 series tires you definitely don't want to skimp on quality in order to save some $$$ because they are so thin that there is not a whole lot of sidewall between your wheels and the road.

 

Hey Boone, how bout tinting ur tails and blackening ur headlights and grill? Nice looking ride with the black rims!!

 

Thank you!

 

I just bought some 20's myself... their 35 I believe. I had to have spacers on the front because they barely rubbed my calipers, so I had them throw some on the back as well, it made a big difference. They sit perfect with the fenders. I like the fact thet my lip sticks out a hair past. Heres a pic:



Theres more on my cardomain...<MY MAX>

 

35mm hit the caliper? That must be in the wheel design
