This summer I maybe changing out my wheels( when I need to get tires) and thinking I want to ditch the black bullitts.
Wanting to go with the FR500's Black with polished lip. Also want to go staggered.
I dont want to go 315's in rear and I dont want overly wide in the front and staying with 17's. I didnt like how the 275's made the front feel sloppy, Im guessing it was the wheel size.
I was thinking maybe 255 front and maybe 285 rear??? And staying with Nitto's since I have had very good luck with them.
With that being said 2 things I dont want to see happen.
1. I want the tire to sit on the rim as it does stock, I dont want the tire bulging out past the rim.
2. As in 1. I dont the tire to look like it is too small for the rim and the rim look as if it is past the sidewall of the tire.
So what would be the best width on the rims front/back?
Also would I need to add wheel spacers the get the tires inline with the fenders,not past the fenders but flush?
And if I need spacers, what size front/back?
Sorry for all the questions, Ive never really messed with wheels/staggered before.
Also I will be replacing the struts/tie rods and bushings this summer and I may want to lower just a bit to close some of the wheel gap.
I know Machs sit a lil lower than GT's so to get a nice stance what size drop would anyone recommend and brand?
I hear H&R's are good on the new edge....?
I dont want it so low I need to worry with tires rubbing the fender wells or needing to roll the fenders.
Only reason waiting till this summer is its soon to be stripped down to bare metal for repaint.
