Exactly what I was gonna buy / do after I sold my last S.....but I bought an ISF instead.

Wow - good work man - Love your CR.

 

 

what is the offset on these, do you get any rubbing?

 

No rub after fender mods. CCW doesn't sell based on offset. They go by backspacing and how much wheel/tire can fit underneath. With 10's up front I can turn lock to lock without any issues. I didn't have to flare the rears, just roll, relocate, and shave a little. If I had to say an offset, I would assume it's a high#.

 

It's probably 11.5 +57. That's their normal fitment for 11.5 rears.

Finally, someone that gets it! I see all these posts all over the place, even in the STICKIES, where people only refer to offsets, like "+45 will fit but +35 will rub". Well, +35 and how wide?? OFFSET is HALF the equation! Remember, offset is measured to the centerline of the wheel, so a 9" wide wheel will stick in AND out more than a 8" wide wheel with the same offset (by 1/2 the difference each way). In this case that would be half inch each way, which would be like a 12.7 mm difference in offset in relation to the fender. NOT a small difference in fitment, clearance, and even wheel shape! I even see wheel vendors in here selling mega-expensive custom ordered JDM wheels that don't get this

 

^I think most fitment heads understand this...at least in the flush thread. roughly 6mm of offset equal .5" of outward wheel width... that is why you see 11.5j CCW wheels fitting so easily on our S.

 

Perhaps you CCW owners and ccdan himself can help me out on this...

Regarding steering lock to lock:

When running 18x10" (+51 Offset 7.51" Back spacing) in front with a 245/30/18 or any other size tires, can you guys turn 100% from lock to lock?

Dan mentioned that the 18×10.5 (2.5″ lip) 8.39" +67 up front with the 285 limits lock to lock to about 98/99%

Is this a tire limit (tire rubbing inside the wheel well), or a metal to metal contact limit (wheel rubbing an a arm)?


Anyone have anything to say regarding this issue? Any info is much appreciated.
