I'm considering purchasing Advan Model 5 wheels and would like to get some input/advice from those that have or have had these wheels.
I've searched the forum, but I can't seem to find the offset information I need for the setup I am planning on using.
Here is what I am planning on doing:
F 17 x 8 w/ 215/40-17
R 18 x 10 w/ 275/35-18
I believe this tire setup will give me almost the exact front/rear ratio as the stock 93 (205/50-15 & 225/50-16), with both front and rear being ~3% larger in diameter than stock
The car has stock brakes, body, and will be lowered ~1".
I want to make sure I get the right offset for this setup (so that the wheels sit flush with the body) without having to use spacers etc. In the rim widths I'm looking for, I have a choice of offsets (30/38/45 in the front and 19/45).
Searching the threads, I believe +45 is the correct offset for the rear in the 18 x 10 sizing. I'm not sure about the front.
If you have Advan Model 5 wheels, please let me know your
-rim widths
-offset
-what tire sizes you are using for a 17/18 setup
-sizing for (aluminum) hubrings if you are using them
....and if you have pics, please post those as well. I'm also curious to know if anyone is using a BBK with these wheels.
Thanks for your help.
