wheels 15x8 -4

[rthy]

has anyone run 15x8 -4 offset at the front? or close to 15x8 with neg offset?

[AE71GZE]

Yep 15 by 8 neg 9s

[BouNCE-86]

yeah, 15 x 8 -4.........

Are you wondering about guard issues? http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/tongue.gif

super lights ey?

[harrygat69]

yeh i run 15*8 neg 9 offset with 195/50 tyres and its pretty low just needed noltec strut tops to pull the neg camber in to 2deg so the top of the tyre doesnt touch the guard and i pulled the caster foward to 3deg20min so it doesnt rub on the back of the wheel arch on near full lock so now they completly clear the guards and i also cut the plastic rib at the front outer edge of the inner guard and put mushroom head bolts in the top two outer holes where the inner guard is attached if that makes sense

i've got a set on the way. i have s13 coilies (extra track) had to flare guards to get 7.5 0 ssr's under at 2* camber. i'm going to have to run more camber to get the rims under but should be alright.

at the rear i have to raise the height about an inch and bash the guards out a little.

bash the guards out a little.[/b]

*cough cough*

ahem

[rthy]

yea is hoping not to mod the guards

and yea 8spoke superlights

[biggo]

depending on how high your car is

mine has massive, i mean the biggest you can possible get guards and the tyres still scrub. its only an inch from the bumpstops tho.

for the fronts, u need camber or a really well setup suspension system

[rthy]

yea i got the 15x7 +12 at the front
prefect fit

tho would need more track and camber it seems

[ae86 slide]

i have got 15x8 -19 up front with 55 profile tyres, gave the gaurds a bit of a tickle up and they fitted no worries (with castor wound right out and a bit of camber), although i cant fit NCRA's at the moment cos it makes them hit the inside wall, the engine bay side.

[klusio]

8's all round. there is a massive difference between the positve offset 7's and negative offset 8's. it looks a bit funny. no offence to justin as that car is hot, but he said it himself he wished he went 8's on the front as well.

[DRFT - 86]

atleast use Justins ride in slammed mode... lol....

[balistic]

So the 15" superlites do come in 8 spoke as well? I had only seen them in 10 spoke on the web which look crap compared to the 8 spokes.

Im running them on the front......

They WONT fit under standard 8-6 front guards, and prolly not even under "lipped" guards either....

I beat the CRAP outta mine with a mallet, and they are fat guards, but still scrub with more than just me in the car.... But i need better suspension as well http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/tongue.gif

[rthy]

i was thinking of running flears or something give it some more space to move

[BouNCE-86]

Yeah, Biggo has the same rims on the front of his ke70, its damn low and there isnt much room in the guard...

A BIG hammer and decent suspension will save you http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/tongue.gif

I have the 15x8 -4 superlites on mine, and trust me, there is NO way you're going to get away on the front without some pretty serious guard flaring. The rears are slightly better, just the lip needs to be pushed up vertically to stop chopping your rear tyres to bits, other than that they're pretty sweet

[Gilly]

pics ^^^^ i want to see how they fit on the back and what height you run.

starting to worry about the front now...

meh i got camber plates they'll pull in....
