i may have to get a spacer but they will fit

i run a 3mm spacer on my +45's to make them +48 and they clear great.

^^If your running 3mm spacers.. your making your 45 into 42 Vince.. not 48.

So it may be close with a 8" wide rim and 45 offset.. may clear fine though too. But if anything it may just take a small spacer to solve any rubbing. 3mm like Vince is running.

and Stock wheels are 47-48offset can't remember exactly which though

my wheels are 42mm offset. so i thought with the 3mm spacers they would be +45? or am i thinking backwards?

Yeah I'm just gonna get the tires put on then take it to a shop and let them deal with it lol

backwards.. 3mm spacer spaces the wheel outward making your 42mm, 39mm
I don't know why so many people has issues understanding offset lol

gotcha. well im running 225/45/17 with 39mm offset.

Those wheels are super sexy. Im soo jealous...

Man up though.. Run a 10mm spacer with longer studs.. then run a 245/40/17.

Oh and toyota fenders to harness them.

You can do it.

no clue on tires man. depends on what u want to do w/ them. wouldn't it have been cheaper to rims & tires at the same place shipped?

Hey Mike what're you doin with your old wheels.. you know I wanted to steal em off of your car last time I saw em..

Prolly keep them as winter wheels unless I can find some z or ls sport wheels




13.1 @ 115
