Toyos will stretch nicely.

Just to clear up that on mine the wheels bolted up, there was just a mild rubbing which taking a thin chamfered edge off (I think you're meant to say 'put a chamfer on'...I forget) on the exposed edge of the pad carrier solved, I wouldn't condone taking chunks out of brake components.

You've chosen a very aggressive fitment, hope it turns out well.

Nankangs are the best at stretch.

So I get told.

Pretty rubbish quality from my experience though, but they are cheap... and I guess adequate if you drive sensibly.

excessive poke won't look good, at all.

If you fail to have the arch over the tyre's tread, I would class the wheels as 'not fitting'.

I wouldn't run anything less than a 205 on a 9. and even then, I think that's pushing it for the front wheels. (braking, sccelerating, steering etc).

Hope you're looking into a chassis notch, tie rod flip kit, and ball joint extenders as well.

Nankangs have weird sizes that other tyre manufacturers don't make. I personally think they look like poo stretched (sidewalls cave in rather than maintain a straight profile).

alright ladies and gents . LOOK WHAT I RECEIVED IN THE MAIL TODAY


BUT WE HAVE A PROBLEM it doesnt sit flush to the hub

After swearing allot in my head thought i should mod my hubs abit TO BE CONTINUED

Update : i got the wheels to fit perfect after spacers and camber adjusment. the wheel sticks out approx 15mm out of guard with no load should be less with load im guessing ? ive order longer wheel bolts since the originals are to short. will upload picture of fitment after fitting rubbers and bolts .

How much camber?

[KI11Z]

really? makes me think offset measurements on various wheel brands are eff'd, not sure how you can have only slightly more poke than me when one, you're a vr6 and two, mine are 8.5+14 with -3.5deg camber and yours being 9+5 and stock camber lmao, my mind's blown .... keen on pics though!
