rayz510 Posted December 1, 2010 Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 I ran some SSR MKII's 16x8 +25 offset with 205/45/16 tires on the rears and still had about a little more than an inch clearance to the fender. I currently run BBS's 15x8's -2 offset with 195/50/15 tires. I have about 1 or 2mm clearance to the arm and about 1/2 inch to the fender. My rear fenders are rolled. Keep in mind the tire size and rim offset. Quote Link to comment
kmc63 Posted December 1, 2010 Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 I am running into the same problemwith my dime .. to hack or not to hack .. I currently have 16x7 +25 and there is no room (i mean none) to go wider. Its amazing I dont rub now. But that being said I got major traction issues.. which is fun and all but im trying to determine what mods I can make to run 8 or 10 inch wide wheels.. My dime while not the best looking :) is really straight and the rear fenders are completely untouched. not even ever rolled.so im a bit weary about messing with them. If I do I plan on rolling the rear lips and notching the rear arms to get some more clearence but im trying to figure out just how much I can get without going all out and hacking things up and bolting on flares .. without a bunch of wheels sitting around to be able to play with fitment its pretty tough to figure out. I think 10" wide wheels is asking a lot but 8's are doable and I can use every bit of rubber hitting the road i can get. Maybe if we can get some people to post what they are running in the rear and what mods are required that would be good. Know what im gonna do Ben? My 510 is all stock body no rust. Im gonna buy a beater and build the dogshit out of it. I was looking at another thread and this guy is selling his 510 with an sr whatever and says its about 200hp,says he spent about 6k on motor? That seems like an awful lot of money for 200hp? Quote Link to comment

kmc63 Posted December 1, 2010 Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 Why not go with a vg? Swap kit a couple grand 200hp easily not even a radical build and less engine mods longer life right?Sorry guess im getting a little off subject. Quote Link to comment
FiveTenzo Posted December 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 Rear where 15x10 with about a -3.75" offset and the fronts where 15x8.5 with about the same offset. Lots of rim even with my BRE flares and tons of negative camber. Any pics?? 1 Quote Link to comment
INDY510 Posted December 1, 2010 Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 . How much do you like camber????? Quote Link to comment
fo0manchu Posted December 2, 2010 Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 I would say what matters more is tire size. You can run a 15x8 with 205's but bet you can't run a 15x7 with 215 or 225's. Also, 4 door and wagons suffer. How wide of tires has somebody run on a 4 door or wagon? Quote Link to comment

Jesse C. Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 Any pics?? Even with stretched tires they did not fit on my buddies car who normally runs 9.5" Watanabe wheels! Too much negative offset. Quote Link to comment
fo0manchu Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 why would you even want to run 15x7 with 215 or even 225!???? nothing wrong with a 215 unless one likes the stretch look and then they run a 195 on a 15x10. but i guess 205 is pretty standard and 225 is for the muscle car, balloon look.

FiveTenzo Posted December 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 Does anyone know what size these are? pretty sure there eagle alloys but are they 15x8 -30 or 15x10 -45?? Quote Link to comment

bonvo Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 you have yet to answer the question as to why you want to stuff a 10 inch rim under it Quote Link to comment

izzo Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 anyone know if 14x7's with just over 3" backspacing will fit on a 510 with early 200sx brakes? Just wanna make sure they dont stick out to far, but more importantly the springs Quote Link to comment
