^ please go learn what "wheel offset" means, and then do some math on a few different wheel withs using the same offset, then a few with the same width and different offset, calculate the distance from the mounting pad to inside wheel lip, and outside wheel lip, hopefully you'll understand when you get done.


OT: started practicing some with the tig and trying diff size filler to get ready for final welding the ds header, then ran out of gas, that preflow/postflow shit with the tig is fail with my little bottle.

 

^ yea ill do that whenever im in the market for some wheels until then i dont care all i know is that the tire was all over my coil springs with 225/50/17.
but thanks for trying to make me look stupid..

 

You are doing that all on your own, I promise I dont have to try.

 

Front wheel fitment is going to depend on the coilover - where the spring perch sits, diameter of spring perch, camber.

 

This...

 

Slot your upper strut bolt holes. Something as small as 1/4" will give you a mile of clearance. You might max your camber plate out, but that can be slotted, too. Mechanically, you're minimizing your scrub radius (good), but increasing your kingpin (meh). Good thing KI doesn't affect dynamic camber that much.

 

excuse the shitty drawing but i dont have a cad program on here lol, but is this what you mean ep?
slot it where the red is to move the bolt back like the camber adjustments?

 

well just found out the spacer i was using last night which was just ever so slightly too small was 11mil, and i ordered a new set of 12.5 mills already last night, hopefully they will get the job done...

 

Eric, that would move the tire and everything.

He means the 2 bolts that bolt the coil to the knuckle. Slot the upper one so you can add a little angle to the coil, but not the wheel/tire. It should give you alot of clearance, and wont cause any issues.

 

Cusco's have the upper bolt hole elongated... I've seen this on a few Japanese coilovers too.
