i have an 05 sti and I'm thinking about getting some mb battles 18x9.5 +15 with either 215/35 or 225/35 tires. I'm on bc br coils so I'll be pretty low. besides rolling my fenders does anyone know how the fitment and ride will be? will they clear the brembos?

im looking to get some d-forces, 18x8.5.... whats the lowest offset i can go without having any rubbing issues? id rather not roll my fenders. i guess the tire size matters, something like a 235?

and like the other guy said...I used to want g forces too but the widest they come in is 9s and I think like +35 and if I'm getting 9s I want somewhere in the +20s. |

even 9" +20 is a lot of work, but much more doable. 215's or 225's and ~3* with a roll all around would probably do the trick if you aren't super low. |

Why don't you just add a few more degrees of camber and turn it into a hovercraft. Not only will it actually be awesome but you could probably lower it down so the fender sits on the lugnuts or put it on the ground. whatever comes first. Also you could make a new line of cursive 'floatiest' stickers.
doesn't that just sound mad dope? |

Yes, I did. They look good, aren't a retarded size and nearly everyone who has seen them agree with both points. So that makes me a troll? I know that nasioc can be a bit harsh at times, but that makes absolutely no sense.

If I'm lowered on Swift springs on stock struts (~1" front, 0.8" rear) how wide can I go with an 18" wheel with and without fender rolling? And what offset would work with that width?

So what makes your opinion any more special when YOU criticize something.

it's common knowledge that you hate hellaflush and stance, but that doesn't make others stupid, dumb, idiotic, retarded, or wrong for liking it. i'm not trying to sway you to accept that style, we all would just rather not read what you think about it. |

Would Volks CE 17X9 with an offset of 63 fit on an 2007 STI?
Thanks |

Sorry if this has been answered, but I don't want to wade through all of these pages.
So I'm getting more and more into auto-x & HPDE's and want more rubber on my 04' wrx wagon. Is it safe to say that I can fit a 17x9 or an 18x9.5 with a +35 offset w/ rear fenders rolled and max camber and clear brembos? Maybe need a spacer? If not, what offset would you guys recommend that will still let me clear big brakes and not rub my suspension? edit: forgot, I'm looking at 255+ series tires. as meaty as possible. |
