Just ordered my New Setup, Stance SC-1 Brushed Titanium

[luxe_g]

The 20x10.5+45 looks like it lines up really flush in the rear while the 20x9+30 is set inward a few millimeters. Would running the 20x10.5+45 in the front help solve this / look the same as the rear?

No, the offset difference between the two widths wouldn't make up for it. IMO you'd be better off running the 20x10 +35 up front since it'll stick out a hair further, and then run a wider tire on it. As long as there are no clearance issues on either the fender or suspension.

Main concern is it clearing and then if the center cap will fit over the large grease cap.

Thanks amego! I'm still druelling over your yellow S197! Glad to see ya following the same path with your S550.

I really miss that car.

Luckily, it went toa car collector and it is sitting in a large garage warehouse among some nice classics.

Have you been able to test the 20x10 +35 up front on a performance pack? If the caps clear, a 20x10/10.5 staggered setup will be in my future.

I'm confused... ignoring the large PP brakes, shouldn't any offset that works perfectly in the rear also work exactly the same on the front?

No sir the front has these massive grease cap so the center cap doesn't fit also the Base GT calipers are smaller in height compared to the PP but they are wider which causes fitment issues as well.

You could still run them without center caps then, right?

I guess my point was / the things I wanted to confirm and understand are:

(1) Are the faces of the wheel hubs on the car setup so they are perfectly square around the car? In other words, is the distance between the two front hubs exactly the same as the distance between the two rear hubs?

(2) What is the distance from the face of the rear wheel hubs to the outside lip of the rear fender vs. the distance from the face of the front wheel hubs to the outside lip of the front fender?

Thanks for helping me get all of this straight in my mind!

Thanks for the detailed thread!
Your numbers are great to use for math on my future setup!

No rubbing at all?

Anyone have any help/answers on this?

Yeah, I have no rubbing at all. In fact I could have gone one size bigger on the tires without issues. Possibly two sizes bigger in the rear.

Got the wheels mounted today and I have to say they have blown my mind.

It was a long wait but I couldn't be happier!

Thanks Jason @ GetYourWheels.com for putting up with me!

Well, here they are. Sorry but it was a cloudy day and was starting to get dark. I'll take more pics the next sunny day.

very nice setup...

 

[Spartan]

Was able to get out at sun set today and take some decent pictures. I'm by no means a professional. Still learning how to use the camera. We don't have very nice scenery here in North Texas either. Anyway, these pics better show the true color of the wheels than my original pics.

Do I want to ask what those wheels cost you?

Much Much cheaper than the HRE and Vossens and about the same as most of the Forgestar.
