RideZX-6R

So I've found a nice set of wheels I dig and the dimensions are above. Based on willtheyfit.com - there will be 4.1mm LESS clearance to the brakes/suspension than stock wheels, andwheel will poke out 34.1 mm farther than before. The 34.1 mm doesn't look too bad but specifically I'm curious if that will clear the brakes or not?

They make the same wheels in an 8.5in width that's a +35 offset, which would be 13.7mm further away from the suspension strut, the outer rim will poke out 26.4mm more than before. So I could go with those easily but if I can do a 9.5 it'd have a bigger lip and look nicer.

With either of those wheels I'd be running H&R springs.

What say you Acurazine?

you wont know till you try, no one can give you a definitive answer.

The clearance issue will be the inside of the spoke and caliper more than anything.

Worst case is a 5mm spacer right?

What tire size are you planning on running?

Here is my current set-up:
Front - 19x9 +38 245/40/19
Rear - 19x10 +35 255/40/19
I'm lowered on Tein Comfort Sport Coilovers

I'm going to assume you're gonna run a 245/40/19. According to willtheyfit.com, you will not have any problems running them in the rear. But you will be 8.4mm closer to the suspension in the front, compared to my specs. Just to give you an idea, hope that helps.

Figured 245/40 for the 8.5s or 265/40 for 9.5s

If I'd be 8.4mm closer than you are - how's your brake clearance? You got a full cm (ie 10mm) there?

Ironically it looks like it's easier to run the 9.5s than the 8.5s as far as the caliper clearance.

Hhhmmm I just took my wheels off the other day lol. But from what I can remember, it had some room to go. It also depends on the style of wheel. What the inside of the spokes look like and what not.

If you run 265/40 on the 9.5, it'll be pretty squared. You might have clearance issues with the fender depending on how low you go.

Just going to use the h&r springs. they're 1.4/1.5 drop

Yes a spacer with the right offset to clear the inside lip of the fender and make a turn

Cool, you should be good. Take some pics once you have it all fitted.

sorry for digging this up but im searching instead of making a whole new thread but can u put pictures up of your set up im thinking about doing the same set up rims but cant decide on the tires how they will stretch or not and how they will clear also doing hnr springs on my 05 acura rl. thank you
