you also need to order "R" disc up front cause of the 350 calipers

ApokC

Where do I get R disks from?

Thanks MV and Project!

Also, do I need extended studs?

the "R disk" that Mv350 is referring to is the type of disk face of the wheel. it's a specifiation type such that the wheels w/ this type of "disk face" clear larger brake calipers a la the oem is350 front brake calipers.

you do not need extended studs - those are usually for slide-on spacers (i.e. ichiba type I's).

on a related note, you do need aftermarket lug nuts. your oem lug nuts will not fit because they are too large and/or shallow.

Anyone help on tire sizes for 19x9 +33 and 19x10 +38. most likely without any fender mods at all... im on Coilovers also, and looking for a nice drop, which im guessing depends on tire size also.

(bolded for emphasis)

215/35-19 + 245/35-19.

keep at least half to a full finger gap between tire and fender edge, lest you want your fenders to scallop/slice the shoulders and/or sidewalls of your tires.

I've been running staggered now for about a year without problem with fitament, my main problem is that Im burning thru tires!!! I'm currently looking at a new set, so my quetion is what is the optimal offset for 19x9 or 19x8 at all 4 corners for AWD setup. I do not want to modify my fenders, if I HAVE to just rolled.

Hey another question if someone can help me out...could i still have about a 2 finger gap if i run 225 front and 255 back?..reason is that, i dont want the lip of the wheel sticking too far out from the tire, a little is ok..

255 might rub, 245 gives you a stretch thats needed, which is why project suggested a 245/35 because its not a crazy stretch and something he would even drive. i was gunna suggest a 235/35 until i read this. run that tire setup suggested and you will be ok. its not like your stretching a 225/40 over an 18x10.5 like i have, not thats when the tires arent super safe to drive on.

225/35 for the 8's 235/35 for the 9's
btw if you looking for a nice unstaggered set of 18's check out the outlet on work wheels website
quoted because its what is needed

you won't have that much of the wheel lip sticking out w/ my proposed tire specs, but you can certainly try and see if you can run your proposed sizes w/ that ride height.

i'd post pics of what 215/35 + 245/35 looks like on a 8.5"/9.5"-wide set-up, but my wheels are dirty. :/

What would be the closet offset to get the most lip w/o fender mod on
19x8.0
19x.8.5
19.9.0
each at all 4 corners.

iTrader: (56)

19 x 8 - mid 20's
19 x 8.5 - high 20's to mid 30's
19 x 9 - high 30's and into the 40's

Mv350

iTrader: (23)

18x8+22 225/35
19x8.5+28 225/35
19x9+35 235/35

Hey, I searched this thread, and the AWD thread, and never seemed to find my answer. I was hoping to run

18x9.0 offset +25mm (2.75" lip)
18x10.5 offset +20mm (4.25" lip)

And was wondering if it would be to aggressive (rubbing issues). Would i have to do fender mods.

Thanks

yes, you will have to do fender modifications: roll + light pull, shaved fender tabs, run semi-stretched tires.
