Is350 wheels on Staggered setup(56k oh hell yea, u need it)
So here it is. the past month have been hell. Dealing with my wheel problem. I hit a pot hole and dented my 19's. Took it to several places and none could fix it. Then during that time, i got rear ended. Me and the girl have been going to Chiro. Dealin with insurance STILL.
I bought the is350 wheels 2 weeks before the pot hole, and was planned to be invested and resold. but the pothole made me no choice but to run those on my car.
specs once again:
Front:
is350 Front 18x8
offset: 45
Tires: Falken fk912 225-40-18 (brand new)
Spacers: NONE
Rear:
is350 Rear 18x8.5
offset: 50
Tires: Kuhmo kh11 225-40-18 (7/10" used)
Spacers: ichaba 15mm
TOTAL OFFSET: 35
Fender Mod: Shave.
Where: Rears
The wheels are too big for plug and play. The 35 offset and 225-40-18 on teins stechs, require you to shave or roll your fender. I went to sears bought a grinder and cut that 8itch off. after grinding it 4 times, i got it right.
For those who are trying this setup, shave it right the first time, just cut more. And dont forget to paint to prevent rust.
225-40-18 is the best tire size for this setup (18x8.5).
The Wheel is very very close to the shock, but clears the shock. so this is the max you can go on your car with shaved or rolled fenders... unless u pull your fenders or make them wider.
Is350wheels: 350
Spacers: 60
tires: 300
tire install: 55
stock lugs 30
install spacers 70
grinder 30
