Wheels: 18" Cosmis MRII's

Specs: 18x8.5 (+22)

Tires: Nankang NS20 235/40/18

Minor poke but I love that aggressive look!

 

That's some serious offset you've got there! Any rubbing issues?

No, you will rub. You can look at the first page and see this info on the chart.

It'll just be tire being slightly out of shape until it warms up. You could try setting the pressures up by 3-4psi just to test the theory. No harm in trying.

 

I had the installer match mount the wheels and tires (wasn't done before) because the road force readings came under 20lbs, but the wheel originally reading 19lbs then was reading 27lbs after match mounting. Tire Rack replaced that tire under warranty and now it is at 9lbs. It smoothed out the ride quite a bit but still not as smooth as I would like but definitely better than before. I might be asking for too much. It seems these tires ride better once the pressure increases a bit after a few minutes of driving. I am going to take your advice and still raise pressures by 3 to 4 psi and see what it does. Below is my current setup and according to Tire Rack within specs. I tried to get them to change the 17lbs wheel as well but they would not.

 

FL - 06lbs / FR - 12lbs

RL- 17lbs / RR - 09lbs

Nice! Looking forward to seeing that. What set up are you planning to go with?

 

Thank you. I'm not sure yet. Ideally I'd want coilovers for the ride comfort but I'm not sure if the H&R lowering springs are good ride quality.

Looking to go with the H&R springs myself sometime this summer.

Car looking great as always. The drop is more noticeable from the FB pictures you posted. This one is a little too dark to see, and I have the screen brightness all the way up. Nice buses.

Thinking of getting these rims powder coated and trying it out.

 

5x100 isn't gonna' work.

The rims are 5x114.3

it's written 5x100 on the rim by looking at the pic. The other 5 holes (which are maybe in 114) are not supposed to be used for wheels studs/bolts.

Just put some 19x8.5 +33 Niche Misano's on Michelin Pilot Sport A/S3+'s (245/40/19) on the ride. I've got a bit of a rub on the rear. Set to have the fenders rolled on Wednesday. Pretty happy with them so far. Love the more aggressive look.

The vehicle looks like it's at the stock ride height. If not how much is the drop? I am wondering how much offset you can have on a rim to bring it close to flush with the fender but not rub ? Edited by Wisedog

Yes, my car is stock height. According to the chart on page 1 of this thread on 19x8.5's you get interference at +35 offset.
