18x7.5 enkei ev5
235/40/18 NS-2
20mm rear spacers

 

They look good!

 

decent wheels

 

I think those Enkeis look AWESOME!

 

lol....if they not gram lights the dont get your approval...lls...

 

they look awesome esp. with a black car

 

They look good on the ride!!

 

Perfect

 

i want them!

 

Fresh

 

very fresh

 

Offset?

 

not bad

if he's running a 20mm offset in teh rear and thats how it sits...i'd guess a +40-45 offset

 

He said he was running a 20mm spacer, we still don't know the original offset of the wheel. I'd say that's a good assumption considering the look and width of the wheel (+45 would be my guess)

 

yea i was just throwing out a ballpark offset figure

 

fixedd

I'll show you how its done when i throw some 9.5 10.5 on my 4th genner

 

*instigates hate*

 

yup... they come in +45 and +38.

already fed her some 9's and 10's

 

 

Thanks guys!! The offset of the wheel is 38 and then I have the 20mm spacers in the rear and 5mm on the front

 

WOW! thats all it kicked it out on a 38...looks good as far as how it sits, just suprised.

 

+38 & 7.5" wide. Can't forget the second segment of that spec.

 

that is true...but thats a fat spacer lol. but all numbers taken into consideration, thats what it is

 

I have +45, 8" wide with a 15mm spacers in the rear, and I think after all the #'s are said and done, it's like 0.65mm difference in stance, and mine look nearly identical to the OP's.

 

i have a 9" wide wheel w/ 30 offset...seems like mine is a little more sunken in than the OPs...you can look at my thread to make your decision...but it sorta does.

 

who cares about how it looks from the side?????



8" +30 view from the rear

10.5" +40 from the rear

Yeah I wouldn't mind another 5mm is so. I wish my wheels were at least 8" wide. Go a good deal on these so I couldn't pass up.

 

Who said I cared what it looked like from the side?

Stance = front or back, not side.

Offset can't really be noticed from the side. Barely noticeable here in the rear only.

 

looks good man

 

did you mean 0.65 inch?? stance is usually when u look at it from the side...and you're trying to achieve stance with spacers....

at least 9's for rears or bust !

 

I stated, 0.65mm is the difference between the OP's and 1 of my set-ups ... as in verifying phatboi's surprise that yes, they're fat spacers, but even in 8" width, they don't look very wide, nor 'stick out' very much.

I barely achieved flush'ness' w/ 8.5 +33 + 15mm spacer in the rear and +33 +5mm spacer in front.


I'd rather not stagger.

Now, on an RWD, sure.

 

i just busted like 5 nuts lol..you're going to make the OP get another set of wheels lol.

this my setup: +30 with a 19x9" wheel

 

4th and 5th gen have different wheel well depts. always needs a staggered setup to run flush all around. or same width but lower offset in rear.

 

So you gonna keep the 4th gen?

 

yup

 

Uh oh... you mind sharing whats in the works for it? I understand if you dont wanna let the car outa the bag though.

 

the biggest obstacle is getting the electrical issues / messed up alarm figured out so it can be started from the inside..... If successful, from then on, its allll downhill. It wont be a DD anymore thus its going to be one of the wildest 4th genners ever around really, there are no limits this time

 

I've been telling people that for the past 10 years.

 

I hope you get that figured out. I cant wait to see what you'll do this time. Is it gonna be more of a show car again? Or mostly race? Or doin a little bit of both?

 

wait til u see mines.................
