custom steelies

Yeah, it would, but then you run into the fender. stock is +42 on both SC and TC i believe. so 35 would push it out a little. Anything between 45 and 35 is no problemo. After that you're kinda in your own world.

i was thinking 25 with a mean stretch. know what i'm saying? btw has anyone stretched tires on a balt yet?

 

[ls1fbody]

Remedy1 had a slight stretch when he was running the Rennen RC2's. Nothing like you though haha. i wouldn't recommend +25 to anyone, but i know you have the access and the willingness to roll/pull your fenders, just make sure you use lots of heat, evenly applied etc.

i guesss i mean if i get the wheels and they dont fit ill make em fit whatevs

Assuming your tires would actually touch the fender, I was thinking something more like this, just for the 1/4 and 1/8 mind you

I would like a setup like that just for the strip. always nice to have a set of slicks. i do have the axles for it so why not.

guys i'm still having a bit of trouble choosing the offset. i have decided on a 9 inch wide wheel because it's a nice and modest stretch with the 215/45 tires. i can't figure out what offset to use! i can always use spacers, but if i go too positive i can't use the wheels! the thickest spacer i can get is 25mm. anyone have any advice?

 

[ff_drift_lol]

anyone? please help i have the money in hand im going to order tomorrow

Try 30 mike. Should clear fine.

Or play it safe and go with 35, you can always space it out.

Did this ever pan out? I'm curious if a 17" from this company would clear the TC calipers without a spacer. These would make an awesome winter wheel in 17x9

Doubt it panned out for him since i contacted Diamond along time ago, and they wont or cant make a wheel for the 5x110 pattern, if your 4lug theyl do it though as thats the common size.

Fkn 5x110.

Although... these might make good winter wheels for my VeeDub. Don't wanna get my BBS's dirty/salty. Haha...

This reminds me that I should find some Steelies for my VeeDub for the winter months.
