Aggressive Fitment Thread

[GetYourWheels]

Forgestar F14
275/40 MPSS 19x10et42 + 20mm spacer
285/40 MPSS 19x11 (not 100% sure on offset, lost the paperwork)
Eibach Pro springs.

New, more appropriate size rears coming soon. ;)

Not the best pics, but since I was next to a stock PP I figured it was a good comparison.

Boy, I sure love how the PSS look with just a tiny bit of stretch

Forgive me if you posted one already, but do you have a side shot of just your car? I really like the Forgestars and they are the front runner in my choice of rims (kinda leaning to those 5-spokes, whatever the name is)

I second the side shot.

Also, stoli...I'd wager your rears are a et35, maybe an et40 judging from how they sit in relation to the fender.

I know this is a wheels thread but, I just had to say...

So. Much. Gloss! :first:

All these shiny cars... I really need to wash my car :(

That said Magnetic is amazing when it comes to hiding dirt. Considering it's a darker color I was worried about it, now I'm glad those worries were for nothing. It's damn near as good as silver IMO. Either that or I just got so used to owning a black car that anything other than black is a cinch to keep clean hahaha :lol::headbonk:

Hi all. Read through the posts here all 42 pages. Wondering if someone could give me their thoughts on 20x10 +35 in the front on a 275. 20x11 rear +39 on a 295 or 305. Would need to clear GT PP brakes.

Thank you!!

I ran the 5mm spacer as I planned on running the flat center caps which needed the spacer. I instead went with the raise caps but left the spacer.

With these WORK wheels, you can get whatever offset you want in 1mm increments. +28 on the front should work as best that I can tell.

This is what sold me on these wheels: stepped lip and fully customizable offsets.

If you are interested, but can put you in touch with Mark Chin at RavSpec who sold me my complete setup.

Mark is the man! One thing to note though, I went with the raised caps (because that was what was sent) and they WILL NOT fit in the front without spacers, no matter the offset due to the dust cover on the hub. The shop tried removing the dust cover but it wouldn't budge. It needs to be shaved down just a couple mm to fit and lock in place. Since the offset doesn't effect how/where the hub mounts to the wheel, changing the offset won't correct this issue. The rear will fit fine because there is no dust cover (black piece in the center of the front wheels in my posts)

lose the red dots in the middle of the rims it cheapens what you're trying to do. get a vinyl guy to cut you a circle that will fit over them.

:headbonk:

Cheapens? Completely disagree with your opinion.

These are aluminum, WORK, raised center caps. $200 to be exact. I will eventually get my Brembo's painted or powdercoated red, too.

:cheers::first:

Hell ya those 11s looking good in the back man.

Not following on the raised cap statement.

I have zero issues running the raised cap with a 5mm spacer. Nothing had to be done for me to install my wheels.

Can you clarify a bit more?

Lol I was saying WITHOUT the 5mm spacers. That's my bad, didn't clarify that.

This was mine.. 21x11 in the rear with 325/25 and then 20x9 up front with the stock 20" tire

Rovos Durban 20x10 et.+38 all around with a 3mm spacer up front to clear Performance Pack brakes.

255/35 tire all around
BC Racing coil overs lowered about 3.5 inches all around.

Once I get adjustable control arms I can make the rear fitment a little more aggressive looking by adjusting the camber.

Those look good. Any idea on weight?

They weigh 28lbs in both 20x8.5 and 20x10. The 20x8.5 weigh the same for strength purposes.

Those look killer! Love the square setups on the S550

wonder if my 15 mm spacers will end up being too aggressive in the front....my rear will be 20x10 +40 w/ a 305 tire and the fronts will be 20x10+30 w/ a 275 tire... eep
