Wondering if I made a mistake...

[Passon13]

I got these wheels traded for my stocks. I know they are 18x9 and he wasn't sure of the offset. I'm assuming somewhere in the +30's. I love the wheels and how they look on my car but I'm worried if I lower my car is it going to be too big of a hassle to get them to fit? I'm running 234/40/18 continental sure contacts right now. I do not rub on stock set up but I do poke about a half inch. I guess my question is, would it be worth the hassle when I lower it to get them to fit? Or should I just get other wheels.

Thanks for the help guys. And yes I have searched the Aggressive Fitament thread and I know I will have to roll and possibly pull, but is it going to be too big of a job? I'm even fine with a little wheel gap when I lower, just want less than now. Thanks a lot.

Here's the wheels

Here's one more lol

You're gonna need more than a roll and pull to mitigate that poke and rubbing, you will need camber too.

I will honestly just get other wheels. This is why you research first before buying.

What a ridiculous post..........

buy the wheels that make the car look good, then use the data base to find the correct offset

then beat the car like it owes you money until you can drive around by yourself without rubzzzzz
never post after this because .......

embarassed

Yea, I was just rollin' with it. Gave me a reason to use one of the face things.

I knew it would be a long shot for them to put lowered. They did come off a gen2 which I know can fit a little more. I only paid $100 for them so I didn't lose much haha I appreciate it. I'll probably get lookin around then

There's an understatement.

😑😑😑 time to put them up for trade when I go lower then. Haha they don't look half bad on stock height. I'm not 100% I want to go lower anyways atm, but it's always a thought. Thanks man.

Plus side is, you only spent $100; downside is it sounds like that was in addition to your stockers, so you're out of luck on lowering until the wheel situation is sorted.

FWIW, here's how mine sits on RX8s with Koni orange shocks and stock springs. Tires are 225/45, which is just a hair taller than stock size; I think they fill the wells pretty nicely for not having lowered the car.

Stock gen1 wheels are gay anyways hahaha but yea. I looked into rx8's but I'm impatient and couldn't find anyone willing to trade. I'm cheap haha your car looks nice ���� the guy I got them from had them on his pu wrapped in 255's!

Hahaa thanks man. Yea I got some. This what ur lookin for?

[Nailedit187]

That is exactly how I want mine to sit. minus the 235s due to flaps

[Thepedigree13]

I dont think they poke out enough, also needs more negative camber, and airbags.

Unfortunately the one guy who knew about airbags is no longer with us.
