I'm sticking with the 15's, I love the look. But I want to go staggered and wider in the rear. So, I'm staying with a 15x8 up front, but going to a 15x10 in the rear. We'll see how it works out. I'm going to order one 15x10 to make sure it works, because with a -44 offset you never know.

I'm running a -13 offset currently. I figure the -44 will be a giant difference.

what ever posesed you to put black wheels on an RBM, just awful looking.

If that -44 offset is correct, those are gonna stick out like 3 to 4 inches. If its a +44, should be about 2 in more than from if the -14 is correct, I think your gonna need some universal wide body fender flares.

It's -44 forsure.

A couple friends of mine were talking about overfenders for the rear after I drop it.

-44...?!?! Wow, those are crazy offsets!! I want to see pics of this when it's done, so make sure you post up!

what are the current wheel + tire specs? do u have spacers? Is there any rubbing? I was looking into this today and I wanted to get the silver ones that you have now (not chrome)..but i dont want to copy your style.

And I dont know anything about the offset...

2 reasons for the negative offset:
1. pushes the wheel/tire out further, for that wide track look
2. allows the smaller 15" rims to not hit the brake caliper housing.

so, now you know something about the offset. <grin>

alright cool..so the 15" wheel will fit with no issues. Thanks for filling me in about that, and you are right. Now I do know something about offset.

But I have another question. What about the tire size? I was thinking 225/60/15. Would that work? or would 235/60/15? I dont want to go any smaller on the sidewall. I am at 225/45/17 now and it throws off my speedometer by like 5-6 mph...

I'm running a 225/70/15. The 15" wheel will fit with the right offset.

I wanted to do 225/60/15 with 15x8 -19 offset. Does the tire stretch for you at all?

Yeah there's a good amount of stretch, helps out the look.

I just ordered BFGoodrich Radial T/A's from discount tire in 225/70/15. They will be here next week and then i will get the wheels and put them on! thanks for your info.

just to make sure though, your tires do NOT rub the fenders right?

Never had an issue.

 

[fatfurious2]

Thanks alot. Did u get your new rear wheels? Ill post pics when i get everything mounted on mine.

 

[fatfurious2]

did you get your new wheels yet? post some pics!

Im getting mine tomorrow, and i will mount and balance them tomorrow night and try to get some pics up

 

[12MPGlol]

I don't have them yet. I need to pick up suspension and over fenders first.

 

[fatfurious2]

I got my wheels mounted and balanced last night. The fronts needed 8mm spacers and the rub a little when doing tight turns..but i got everything bolted on.. I havent had a chance to take some nice shots, but i will soon. I also need to think about getting some wide fender flares..

I'm surprised you needed spacers. Fender flares would be sick. Post pictures, I would love to see how they came out.

 

[fatfurious2]

ill try to get some pics today, even though its rainy..i dont have the flares yet, im just going to be thinking of getting them, bc the wheels are about 2 inches out from the body..ill post the pics up later today

 

[fatfurious2]

out of the 10 pics that i took while i still had some battery life in my camera, this is the only one that came out decent..
