Squared setup with PP wheels?

[Brando]

Is it possible to run a squared setup with PP wheels?

I have two sets of PP wheels. In a perfect world I would want the skinny set for winter tires and the wide set for summer tires. Will the skinnies fit in the rear? Will wides fit in the front?

Many thanks in advance wheels genius gods!!

This will be determined by the offsets of the front and rear. The difference in the widths is not much. The offsets should be stamped on the inside of the wheel some where. See what the difference is.

I want to know too! I would love to know if the rears fit the front with no issues... I don't have my car yet to find out..

Here's what I've found. Anyone please correct me if I'm wrong.

The 9" wheels (front wheels) will fit in the back or the front, no issues.

The 9.5" wheels (rear wheels) will NOT fit on the front UNLESS you run a 5mm spacer.

Given these offsets I would agree. A 52.5 on the front will be brought in closer to the rotor. So not only would it more than likely hit the caliper it may rub when turning combined with the additional width as well. There is already very limited space with the front wheel now between it and the caliper I would say try a 5mm and 10mm spacer to test fit with. But 10mm is too much for the stock wheel stud IMO. 10mm is .4 inches 5mm is .2 inches

Positive offset is when the mounting surface is on the outside of the center line, negative is on the inside of the center line. the distance between the two is your offset in positive or negative mm.

I'm picking up my second set of PP wheels Friday and 5mm spacers are ordered.

Anyone running extended wheels studs?
