i want to make the gap go away!!!(well close to it) got to 18's with a 9.5 rear and 8.5 front..... so new rims and tires..... OR go with rear wheel spacers and ot get the same effect and drop the car?i cant make up my mind. i really like my rims i have now. so it a hard choice.

any help pros or cons are welcome.. i need both to make my final pick. so let me hear what you guys and gals think.


thanks

coilovers

 

depends on what you want to do with the car. are u gonna be racing it? or do u want to just build it for show. spacers will just increase the scrub radius and make it handle liek shit. (if ur driving the car hard enough to even notice) same as super low offsets on s2k's.

wouldent u rather run a high offset but very wide wheel. still be hella flush and still be able to drive the car hard?

instead of running a low offset wheel. make it handle like shit and look stupid?

just my two cents.....

 

Or get overhangs like i did, roll your fenders *or cut* run your lower offset.. have a wider stance so your car doesnt whip around so easily, have nice wheels and look good too

 

just a heads up..putting bigger wheels on the car will make the gap to appear even bigger.

 

Lower the car to about a finger-2 finger gap with coilovers if u can afford it and if not get some good springs.... end of discussion, truly no need for low offset wheels, just causes more modifications to be needed in the end.

 

in my case... i had to get wheels to fit my overfenders

 

Try lowering spring first, like the one I have which is the Espilar ASD. It will get rid of the fender wheel gap for sure. Everybody that autocross know how low it appears to be my car is.

Now if you want your wheels to be flushed to the fenders then, you have to get an aggressive offset wheels, to which I have no knowledge of .

 

I got Espilar ASD on oem shocks for sale! if you are interested.

They are really great, the only reason I switched is because of nonstaggered setup and I will be tracking the car most of the time...

 

nice setup
