so what about 18x8.5 +40 offset?
much better? =p
from what i know you probably need to roll guards, if you plan on running 225's and going low with corrected camber... natural camber may benefit you though!Quote:

about to organise my setup soon BC Racing Coilovers. I was going to stay conservative but saw tranz car on the weekend and decided **** IT.
Enkei GTC01 18x8.5 +30.
0 finger gap in winter ill raise it for the the snow. You reckon just rolled guards at the front or will i need a light pull.
Rear will be probably guards rolled and remove bumper tab.
Tyres 215/40(or45)18
Neg camber make it fit just rotate once a month.
How do you guys reckon this will look?
hey guys
thinking abt buying wheels for accord euro
18x9 +25 all round , its running 215/40 tyres
what would need to be done to run these ?
you'd need your guards to be rolled. personally i'd go for 225/40/18 def not 45 affects your speedo more. why not just keep the stockies for the snow?Quote:

Anyone got any ideas on front camber kits
will neutral camber be enough ? or front and rear camber kits are a must after a roll /pull to the fenders ?>
fronts if you're on a budget get the hardrace ones. if you're feeling generous get the spoon ones. do not get skunk2.
natural camber wasn't enough for me.Quote:

although the rears might not be as flush compared to how the front is.
neg camber needed, esp for the front, like -2.
i use skunk2 front camber kit and ingalls rear.

Hard race looks like the winner was never getting skunk so many bad reviews but 500 for front camber **** my life
LOL, wats bad about skunk2? ROFL, half of tsxclub and myself use them....LOOLOL oh dear.
tranz, i wanna see your car one day lol!
hahahaaha, nothing spesh man, just an ordinary CL9 with few mods here and there =]Quote:

ahhhhhh bs, things sexy as hell!Quote:

lol tranz and longers, you gotta see longers ride tranz, after seeing it i need to pick up my game =P
i want to see longers ride..
hahahha its nothing special.
alright guys looking around for new rims, getting kinda tired over the works lol
thinking of possibly going 18 x 9.5 +30 all round or if they dont fit the fronts then will hunt for a 18 x 8 +35
ive got rear camber arms, rear guards have been rolled, fronts are untouched atm will get it rolled when im back in adelaide and trim the inner splash guards
but definitely do not want to pull any of the guards currently sitting on 0 finger gap (i think), possibly less my front guards are getting raped at full lock sometimes
what will need to be done to make it fit?
hahaha tranz remember me telling you that the other day, about the skunk 2 front camber arms :p
hi sorry for being noob.. but will 19x8.5 55+ fit on a cl9?
easy. well within the guards without having to rollQuote:

easy? will hit the struts with that offset LOLQuote:

Bloody hell... wanting to go wider now...
Looking at a set of 18x9.5 +38 for both front and rear... 225/40/18... 1-2 finger gap, and running -2 degrees camber max on the rear
firstly; has anyone got any pics of what the front fitment would look like on natural camber, im scared that this kind of setup may actually poke a tad too much on the fronts..
im not worried about the rears as the fitment would end up being perfect. but yeah, what kind of work would you need to get these fitted? i dont want to sacrifice my tyre life as my car is a daily but damn.. if i can get these specs to fit with minimal camber i will be a really happy man!
18x8 all around
or
18x8 front, 18x9 rear?
wheels im wanting to get dont come in .5, sadly
since i have money now, im gonna order soon :D
18x8 all around IMO
Staggered setup just don't make sense on a FWD. As if our cars don't understeer enough already
My wheels arrived yesterday. They are 18x9 +33 all round which means guard roll and pull I guess
true.. looks like i'll order a set tonightQuote:

from my knowledge the fronts should fit perfectly with less than -1 degree of camber, but yeah.. im clueless when it comes to the rears!
It would be around -2 and -3. From some knowledge probably around -2.3.
I ran 18x8 +38 with 1.5-2 finger gap with no guard work needed
yer i'm just more worried about camber.. as the rims would poke a bit on 0 degrees.. if i wouldnt be able to tuck them in with around -1.5 to -2 degrees i may have a problem since i do drive the car a lot :/Quote:

Have you looked at wheel setups on the tsxclub forum?
Just bought new wheels 18x8.5 +35, 225/40/18 slightly stretched, lowered car currently about 13cm off the ground, coilovers on max hardness, and over pot holes, or turning at high speed i get scrub =[. But overall love the fitment quite flush =]. Just thought I'd put my specs up because i had a hard time deciding and finding the right specs too. Cheers
Nice :) will have similar specs soon. Got a pic of your setup?
im curious to see what it looks like too! my height is roughly the same as Smogol's
il try and get a pic up doing some photoshoots this sat so definately =]
18x8.5 +30? You reckon i will need front camber kit? will be quite low
defs front camber kit man. and tyre streettccchhh....my fronts are like that but +25 instead with -2.5 cambzor....ROFLQuote:
