Thanks a bunch! Yes the roads here aren't the best either but luckily my wheels are strong and I don't mind bringing traffic to a hault on a major road for a pothole Hopefully the car pulls through and I can finalize the deal.

 

Not really an upgrade imo. You should just save money a bit longer and get something that isn't wasting the upgrade process.

 

The width of wheel is not going to dictate the wear of your tires. Your suspension geometry will, such as toe and camber. As long as your alignment is within spec, you'll be fine.

 

Ok cool, when I make my order I'll go with 18 x 8 and up front +40 and I will go 18 x 9.5 in the back +40.

Tsw zolders only seem to have 8 or 9.5 width for 18 inch wheels

 

Go wider up front and your car will be more fun to drive with proper tire sizing.

 

Anyone know where i can get some tikata green volk te37s? I csn find all colors except that...

 

dammit ur right! i just need to get the right size tire! i really want that dished look with a 3inch lip.

 

+40??? Don't they offer that wheel in a +25? I would go +25 up front w/ a 225 tire, and +25 with a 10mm spacer and 235 tire. Lower it about 2", and you should achieve the stance you want.

 

this is why i need to talk to u guys before i spend 800 bux on a mistake! lol


18X9.5 5-114.3 20WM
18X9.5 5-114.3 40WM

this is what they have to chose from on Discount Tires Direct. so i need to get +20 for the 3 inch lip. and maybe a spacer. not +40?

and i just installed my 1jz last night. and the motor must be lighter than a 2jz. cause the front end is like 2 inches higher lol i need some springs big time!

 

^, Offsets are relative to tire sizes, in terms of fitment. Are you wanting to stretch the tires or run them normal? The ones I listed are for non-stretch. Stretching allows you to run more aggressively.

The front end hasn't settled yet. Once the car rolls a little bit, the front end should return to normal height.

 

if i remember right, those were special editions or something along those lines.
goodluck. i remember seeing a set get tossed around in az as if it was a local bicycle.

Looking for proper tire. Nothing crazy like putting a skinny tire on a wide rim.

 

Hello all, I am considering upgrading my wheels. I am considering 19's or 20's in the katana wheels Kr12-19 or 20. I've check with 2 custom wheels company, but they are giving me to different tire size. Tire Rack is giving me 245/30-20, and another company is giving 245/35/r20 - 255/35/r20. Which ones will work without a lot of road noise and rubbing. As of now, I do not intend on dropping my car as of yet. But I do really need some help!!! I am ready to start some mods to my SC400.. Thanx guys!!!

 

Just finished putting my wheels on, 18x10.5 0 offset all around.

 

18x9 + 5 offset front 235/40/18
18x10 -7 rear 245/40/18
