9.5' + 40 on the rear of an s2k - scrubbing issues?
Hey all,
possibly looking at fitting a 9.5'' +40 wheel onto the rear of an s2k. Im just wondering if this will have issues in contact with the rear trailing arm/coilover?
I think you will definantly scrub the guards. You will be pulling chunks of tyre out of your guard like i was with 8.5' +35. You will be .5mm deeper in the car then me because you have +40 offset, but your wheels will be 1/2inch out because there an inch wider. So overall about 7mm further out then my old wheels. You can get away with scrubbing by stretching tyres but then the car will feel like a trolley.

yeah but if you were running the same size tyre as he plans to, it would be more stretched on his 9.5 then your 8.5
itll fit just give it a roll, slight pull and tab relocation
it's 9.5 +40 on a rear. seriously, not that hard, just roll + tab relocation as people have been saying. So go go go!
I know a guy running 9 +35 with slight roll and not even a tab relocation on 235/40. Still goes good, only scrubs on huge bumps at high speeds.

Speaking from experience. Anythings possible, but its going to be a job.
