finally some wheels...
finally some wheels...
first off, sorry for the dirty as a motherfucker car, theres been alot of melting going on lately lol.
so, after a ton of searching and not finding what i want i came across these pieces of shit and just did a test fit. 18x8 +30 225/40/18 fronts, 18x9 +25 235/40/18 rears(they were mounted on a GS400, silver one in the pics). oh, did i mention WORK Euroline content?
any comments/help on the tire situation though? should i switch the tires front to back? also, i still need to go down a bit in the rear once im ready to actually mount them.

you definitely need to either run negative camber in the rear or pull and roll the fender to run that tire size with that offset. then you can lower it more and really do those wheels justice

i figured i should move the rears to the front anyways. jjashaa, did you run camber and a pull too? speaking of locksmince, i was soooo close to pulling the trigger on some locksmice gerades, but the width was semi-weak, 8.5 all around
thanks for the input!

You dont even have to run any camber arms. Just slam the car, and natural camber will be enough, and get smaller tires and you'll be fine with those wheels specs. 215/40/R18 would be perfect, since I'm running the same setup. And only rubs in the rear when I angle. It'll look better when its done, but you're the first tl I seen with these eurolines.
in the works guys. selling the 235s, just waiting on the tire shop to tell me if they want to run the stretched tires, theyre afraid to touch these wheels lol i might have to find a different shop.
either way, its getting done! more pics to come once everything is done.

Right now its on the highest ride height. when I throw them on, you better believe its coming down. I'm not gonna throw 205s on, nor am I going to throw 215s all around, just 215 front and 225 rear, it'll be good enough for me and it'll still look dope as fuck.

those aren't "pieces of shit" wheels, LOL! i'd take them any day. can't wait to see it all dialed in. definitely gonna need some more stretch and camber to fit these.
ya, i figured id play aloof saying theyre pieces of shit lol i thought for sure someone would have had eurolines, its good to be sitting with some legit wheels! 235s are now sold, 215s going on in the front and the 225s are already on the rear, its coming together!
alright guys, just about done, pulled the fenders, lowered it more, but the bumper is sitting on the tires on the rear. i tried lowering it more to see if it would pull in more natural camber but its not happening, so im assuming a camber kit is needed...
which camber kit, i know ingalls, but i dont know which kit that i need, someone point me in the right direction please!

edit: nvm, read above. that's still not enough of a stretch for the rears. i say you run a 215/40/18 all around like people have been saying. that's the only way you'll get them to fit without getting a camber kit.

nah im gonna get a camber kit, i just bought the tires, im not going to spend another few hundred on more tires, would you guys do that? i doubt it.
ill just get a camber kit, i always knew i might need one anyways, i just raised it up a bit in the meantime.
