DOES ANYONE KNOW IF I CAN RUN SOME 16x7 TE 37 CUPS WITH +33 OFFSET ALONG WITH SOME TANABE GF 210 SPRINGS AND TOKICO SHOCKS (I KNOW THEY DON'T MAKE THESE SHOCKS YET) ?

 

gonna rub in the rear for shure but only when both
wheels (right and left) compress at the same time...

Is There Anything I Can Do About This? Like Rolling The Rear Fenders Or Some Other Trick Of That Sort? Btw Is It Difficult To Roll The Fit Fenders?

 

I have wheels w/ a 43 offset, 6,5" wide and 205 tires and it rub durring
both wheels compression... In my opinion, there is nothing you can do
because it does not rub the fender itself but the flange thing that hold
the fender... Mybe you can choose a narrower tire like 195 but on a 7"
wide rim, I don't know... In my opinion, it will rub also with a 195 tire...

Maybe someone have a better idea ???

i've tried the 195/50r16's and havent had any rubbing, mind you this is at stock ride height. the 205's kept rubbing.
wheel was +42mm and 16x7
hope this helps.

 

so do you guys think that i should just get the wheels with 45 offset instead of 35? or even get 15's instead of 16?....thanks you guys for all your advice...

 

and also are your cars droped? and how low if they are?

 

WOULD IT HELP IF I used some 5mm spacers to raise he +33 offset of the cups and if so, would the spacers make a big difference?
Ano do they sell l VOLK's in multiple off set for each different style of wheels? i've heard that between 38 and 42 would be ideal offsets or the fit. do you know if this is true? would the 33mm spacers solve my problem?

 

The spacer will space the wheel to the outside so no
it does not work... What you want is a wheel with about
45mm offset and not to wide, 6,5" in my opinion is the
way to go... and anything with 42mm offset or minus should
go w/ 195 tire...

wait...so fits cant run 7" wide wheels with 205 tires with a an offset less than 45mm (ie 42,40) and lowering springs without rubbing?

 

I'm running +42 and there is slight rubbing in the back, but I think it is from the bumper bracket, not the fender...if I lower (when I get my struts), then I would put my money on the fronts rubbing, so a camber kit is a must.

 

That's right... Again my setup: 6,5" X 15" / +43 offset / 205 tires / stock suspention, no drop = rub in the rear when both side compress at the same time...

man that sure does suck for a fit owner trying to widen the fits track stance

 

So if i run a +45 offset on some 16x6.5 wheels along with some tanabe gf210 springs? I believe the front drop is 1.5in and rear drop is 0.9in.

 

With 195 tires, I think you should be good... something in
the 195 45 R16 size... Don't forget, the stock wheels are
spaced w/ an offset of +55 and are 6" wide; that's why !

Ok Cool Thanks For Your Input. It's Helping Me Out Alot. If Anyone Else Has Anymore Advice I'm All Ears Cause I'm A Super Noob And Have Never Done This Before. Also What Brand And Model Tires Can You Guys Recomend. I Want Pretty Sufficient Grip But Not Too Expensive, Will Last Long Enough, And Good For Track/canyons... I'm Not Sure If It Is Possible To Get A Tire Like This But It's Worth A Try. They Don't Have To Fit These Specs Exactly, Just Want Them To Be Pretty Good All Around I Guess. Any Input?

Ok Thanks, I'll Look Into Those... Any Other Recomendations Anyone? AND DOES ANYONE KNOW IF VOLK'S (TE37 CUPS) COME IN 40 - 45 OFFSET?.....PHIL_QC - YOU THINK I should RUN 195/45 IN THE FRONT AND 195/50 IN THE REAR? OR JUST GO 195/45 ALL AROUND?

 

please stop using caps. they are not helping you get your answers faster.

why not phone a volk dealer and ask them on that sizing?

 

ohh ok i'll do that...
