With stock height your fronts will be sticking out 22mm more than your stock PP1 wheels and rears will be sticking out 15mm more. I've seen members here run 20mm spacers in the front with stock height and it looks fine. Not as much poke as PP2 wheels. To my taste, I'd lower it first and then went aggressive with the wheels.
That's what I call aggressive! What are the offsets?Project 6gr 19x10 front 19x11.5 rear on mps4s 275 40 r 19 front and 345 30 r19 nitto 555r2 rear. had to clearance the rear shock mount slightly so that the inside of the tire wouldn't rub when launching the car
Sick set up manProject 6gr 19x10 front 19x11.5 rear on mps4s 275 40 r 19 front and 345 30 r19 nitto 555r2 rear. had to clearance the rear shock mount slightly so that the inside of the tire wouldn't rub when launching the car
personally, i like the drop on the sport lines more. plus, the sport lines will have more neg camber which is never a bad thing depending no how aggressive you go with your wheel width and tire size.
It is somewhat aggressive, it settled at -2.6 in the rear and my front is sitting at -2.8. I will need camber arms to pull in any more on the rear. Unfortunately Konig Discontinued this wheel so I was stuck with trying to make the +25 fit. They made a +40 as well but I looked for months and had four different companies look for them to no avail. So alas the square setup of +25 is where I stand. But I'm not sad about it in the least.
Read through this thread. There's a lot of useful info with photos. People tuck even more aggressive offsets without rubbing on the front, so it's up to your taste and goals with the tires. I am running 20x10.5 +40 in the front with 305/30 tire and 1.9 camber without any rubbing and there's still some room for less camber.
Looks really good. With the 305/35 giving an extra inch in diameter to the rear wells, it will fill it in nicely. No concerns the extra inch will rub anywhere ?So here's my report on fitting 20x10.5 +45 Velgen VMB8 square setup. I tried it with a 3mm spacer first and was not happy with less than 1mm wheel to strut clearance and then with a 5mm spacer. I always wanted to experience a wide tire in the front and to my surprise, with 305's the tramlining I was so worried about was not present at all. Another concern was the tire to spring support plate clearance, but as you can see in the photo it clears just fine. I put the old and new wheels on the scales and it showed a total savings of 5.6lbs. As for the driving, it grips really well when the tires get warm, it's not much noisier for me to notice, the road imperfections are a bit more noticeable but that's what you'd expect with the lower sidewall. For the looks, the front wheel sits ok to my taste, but if not my very steep driveway I'd drop it even more, but the back with this tire size doesn't fill the wheel arch well enough. That's why I already ordered 305/35 Nitto R2 for the back. It will also add the rake back that I was not happy losing with this square setup. Keep in mind, I still have -1.9 camber on the front and -2.4 on the back from when I was running 25mm spacers. I don't need that much camber anymore and as soon as I install FP Track struts I'll be setting back camber stock and leave about -1.7 in the front. For now it's stock PP1 struts and Steeda Sport progressives.
One of the members here (@krisk) runs the same exact tire with the setup that extends 1mm more than mine in the rear without any rubbing so I am sure it will be fine.
