guys I am in the market for coils but would hate to end up buying something with wrong spring rates....

The most aggresive I ever plan to go on the rear is 10.5+25, would megan ez streets with a spring rate of 10kg/mm and 8kg/mm be stiff enough to hold those offsets?

thanks

Rash,

(with the said rim sizes)


19x9+35 225/35/19
19x10+25 you can throw on 265/30/19 or 245/35/19, if its for the rear.


I run 19x9+30 up front with 225/35/19 and I only rub over hard bumps.

Question about tires:
If im rubbing on 225/35/20 on my 20x8.5 +20, will 225/30/20 make a diff? I know that the 30and 35 are just the height. but not sure if they gonna stretch a little with 30 series. thanks

What would be a better setup (no rubbing, etc) , considering I'll be dropping on H&R?
19x8.5 32 / 235 35 19 front
19x10 38 / 265 30 19 rear

or

19x8.5 32 / 235 35 19 front
19x10 38 / 275 30 19 rear

I've already gathered some suggestions from a few member, but any additional suggestion would be great! Thanks so much for your help!

given the same tire brand/model, you should get a little more stretch going from 225/35-20 to 225/30-30.

you've asked this in your thread, and it's already been addressed.

unless you're offering significantly different wheel/tire specs, there isn't much to discuss between 265/30-19 and 275/30-19.

with fender modifications (roll-pull + shaving down the fender tabs) and careful selection of tire sizes, yes, those TE37 SL's will fit.

235/35-19 should be fine up front. datplayaz runs 265/30-19 on a 10.5" +22 on his TE's, and from a visual check it looks like it clears the fenders.

with those widths and offsets, you have to modify your fenders. no exceptions.

I'm about to order a set of wheels but is wondering if the following spec would work..

19x8.5 +23
19x10 +29

My shop suggests to go with below to be safer

19x9 +31
19x10 +32

Im willing to stretch and roll fender, def. no pull, and i have coils to adjust height.

Will the first specs work? Thanks in advance.
