This 38mm rear offset should have them stick out a bit if running 275/40 tires. My RTR's were 33mm and i changed them because off the rear offset. Got a set of 19" SVTPP wheels with a 51mm rear offset and 7.6in backspacing.

 

Well they've run a +43 rear offset on another set of wheels they carry and had no issues as far as sticking out of fenders. I realize these wheels are a slightly lower offset but its not too much more aggressive so hopefully that issue wont arise. I was planning on a set of 305 rear tires if I purchase them. That may be a wee bit pushing it and I'd back down to a 295. But we will see once they get test fitted.

 

a 10" wheel with a 38mm offset will stick out just as much as a 9.5" wheel with a 33mm offset. So if you dont like how far the RTR wheels stick out I dont think you'll like these wheels either. That said if you go to that website and look at the linea corsa wheels they are other wheels in there with a 43mm offset which would be perfect for the rear.

 

I think you're pushing it a bit too much with 295's, it will stick out even more than the RTR's. My 285/40/19 rear tires with SVTPP 10" wheels are dead even with the fender lip.

 

Man Im hoping its not. Ive previously had saleen wheels on my 2010 GT with +45 offset , and was running 295 toyos and they fit PERFECT! But obviously these are a different offset , i'm just hoping for some sort of miracle fitment

 

speaking of which, did you ever post install photos Dan?

 

You gotta contact me next time you come down this way. Best to contact me on S197.

I really want to see your car in person, and we could get some really good pics together.

 

I unfortunately got two wrong size tires for the front which was my fault by not correctly stating the right size. I got 255/45/19's for the front which made the car sits lower . So tomorrow i'm going back to the dealership with the mounted tires on the SVTPP wheels and will have them swith to 275/40/19's . I test fitted the rear RTR wheels with tires onto the front . Perfect fit. Besides it took 3 weeks to get the new front tires, which were back ordered almost everywhere especially during this time of the year during when their isn't a great demand for performance summer tires. I also ordered some new running horse center caps to better match the new SVTPP wheels. I didn't like the FR white ones, so they'll be up for sale as well as the RTR's. Will try to snap a few photos this week-end weather permitting.

 

Will do! I want your front end; I don't have the funds though... Nor do I have a bumper friendly driveway.. lol.

Or if you're ever in Irvine, or SoCal...

 

I'm in Irvine

 

Around UCI? IVC? go to Cars & Coffee?

 

I built a bunch of roads in Irvine, many Moons Ago

 

Smooth roads.

But these **** speedbumps.


Sorry... Derailing this thread... =[ Any pics or updates? lol...

 

Not yet. They are only open Monday through Friday from 10-5. I don't get home until around 6, so I'm trying to schedule something after hours with them.

I will let you guys know when it's scheduled.

I am concerned about the rear offset though, more so than caliper clearance.

 

Maybe I'll jump on this before you... who knows...

Although... you have a BBK and I don't.

 

Not sure about how many fitments they have but if they can fit up several with different offsets, that'd be nice to see. That way people can get an idea if there are multiple offsets that will work with the wheels or not.

 

Any updates??

 

Sorry guys, no update.

Heres the deal, they are only open 10-5 Monday through Friday.

I have to find a way to take time off of work, which is incredibly busy right now.

I'm fully committed to making this happen for all of our knowledge, just please bare with me as I have to get some things finished up with work before I can take time off for something like this.

Know what I mean?

Sorry for the delays guys, if they were open on the weekend, this would be done by now.

 

I'm off on Thursday. I can go test drive a 5.0 and drop by their shop

 

I'm sure we can bear with you but I don't know you well enough to "bare" with you.
