ur answer.. 225/40 and 235/35.. but ur also maxing out camber.. u can also run a 215/40 and a 235/35 but personally i wouldnt go any smaller then 225 and 235
I am on stock body. I am trying to get my fenders flared right now for the set-up. As for tires I don't mind to stretch, I just want to run the best size for daily driving. Thanks in advance for your help and so you know I dont think your cocky and your car is super hot (saw in your thread people were hating on you)
Lol.. Aggressive setups on daily's are fairly costly to maintain. I get my tires blown off and flipped every 1k miles to maximize tire life. Also I run -.01 toe front and rear as toe is more the culprit than camber. I get a alignment almost every month, if not multiple times a month. Choosing your tire of prefenece also delegates grip as well as tire life. I can tell you now, people are going to bust your balls to why your running a 215 on a 9" when a 265 could fit. With that being said, I'd go for a 215/40 upfront with -3.5 camber with a 15mm pull and flare as a starting point for the front. I've had a 205 on a 9" all the way up to a 265 on the same 9" so a 215 is deff doable. For the
rear, I'd go with a 235/35(if you could find it) with -4.5 to -5.5 with a 10mm pull as a starting point.
Front - 215/40 with -3.5 camber/6.2 caster with approx 15mm pull and flare
rear. - 235/35 or 225/35 with -4.5 to -5.5 camber with approx 10mm pull
rear, I'd go with a 235/35(if you could find it) with -4.5 to -5.5 with a 10mm pull as a starting point.
Front - 215/40 with -3.5 camber/6.2 caster with approx 15mm pull and flare
rear. - 235/35 or 225/35 with -4.5 to -5.5 camber with approx 10mm pull
The vsxx setup is super aggressive for a s2k but CAN be done with enough work. My setup is 9.5" +23 with a 245/40.... If you run a 235/35 your outer tire position will be 5mm more aggressive than my setup with a pretty decent pull and flare front and rear. Honestly, it comes down to how much work you'd like to put in to make a setup work. Personally I'd go for the vsxx's and commit to make them fit. Besides Alex with his 11.5" +19, you'd be a offset king! If you want a sick setup with a little less work go with the ccw's. Im down to help out which ever route you choose homie!
Man, this is a very hard choice. Ever since I saw silentdancer's car I have been on a quest for a set of really aggressive wheels, but never imagined how much maintenance it would be. As for the ccw's they look really clean and seem to not cause much problems, im just waiting on pricing. Quick question, if I had body work done like leng would be setup then fit fairly easy?
It will make it easier but not easy. It takes a decent amount of work to make a aggressive setup work well on a daily. With the ccw's your still getting the 11" width but a higher offset like +57 which is still fairly aggressive but not 10.5" +26. With the ccw's you could run a wider tire but that's up to your preference. The positive aspect to ccw's is you can choose offset mm by mm and width to you exact specs. That is almost unheard of in the high-end rim market, usually it's set sizes and offsets which you must massage to work.
