Man, that looks great. So the real width, if you use up the entire wheel well with the Steeda shock mounts, is right at 13". Any tire wider than that will have to poke out or risk contact? Seems like you nailed it.
Edit: mind if I ask what they charged you to install the shock mounts (if you...
Are the clearances mentioned above the result of your shaving and relocating the two possible contact points or were these measurements prior to those adjustments?
I trying to figure out how much I can widen a 20x9.5 wheel if Iām not going to run spacers or make adjustments under the wheel well.
You can easily tuck 11ā wide wheels without a widebody so add to that whatever amount you added with the flares and youāre maxing out your set up. Be sure to get the proper offset on your wheels too.
Whatās a reasonable amount of time to give a machine shop to open the centerbore on a set of wheels? Theyāve been there a week now and still havenāt been worked on.
I ordered some spacers that arrived in a heartbeat. Picked up tires, basically completed every other aspect of the project and...
what was yor wheel width, offset, suspension mod list and did you have any issues with that tall of a tire?
Iām getting a set that tire size for next to nothing and wanted to know if it would be fine (20x9.5 ET 45) without or with spacers (15mm front and 8mm rear).
Itās crazy how different the āreal worldā widths can be between brands. MPSS 325/30/19s are 13 3/8ths unmounted and around 13ā mounted on an 11ā wheel.
Yeah. I was thinking a set of forged 20's was still $4k+ but there is a company out there selling sets for $2,600 now. But I honestly kind of like making something out of these old OEM wheels.
Iām getting these wheels machined to work on the mustang platform. Theyre 20ā forged wheels and I got the set for $700.
Got the rears from the silver set swapped for an additional pair of matching fronts (that had been plasti dipped). Have all 4 of those 9.5" offset 45 20's at a machine shop...
Iām getting a set of OEM 20x9.5 forged wheels with tires from an unrelated brand, having the center bores redrilled to the mustang size then sending to Weldcraft to widen to 11.25ā. With a 10mm spacer, it should put them centered in the wheelwell.
Ha, okay, thank you. Yes, point taken. I was curious if the inside room was there or if 20ās / taller tires had to stay further away from the suspension side than say a a 27ā tire for some reason. I appreciate the feedback!
Paul,
General wheel question...I noticed on 19ā wheels that are 11.5ā wide, offsets go as high as 56 to sink the wheel way into the well but on 20ās thatāre 11ā wide, the offsets only go to around 50 (12mm away from the suspension side compared to the 19x11.5).
Is that to keep folks who would...
I think thatāll be 1/2ā too wide to the inside. Widen it 1.5ā and you should be okay. This comparison is approximate (your poke wonāt change from the left column unless you add spacers).
On 20x11 wheels, 50 is the highest offset Iāve seen people run and it puts the inset number around 190mm...
