09_Type-S

im looking at getting a set of these SSR vienna noble wheels for my EBP. but i am confused if they will actually fit. ive seen guys fit 19X9 and stuff so which rim will fit. i just want it to look flush dont really care if its 19X7.5-19X9. this is what there website says:

V519750 19x7.5J $620.00 +55(41) +43(53) +37(59)
V519800 19x8.0J $630.00 +44(58) +37(65) +27(75)
V519850 19x8.5J $640.00 +43(65) +37(71) +30(78)

so which one of these would work with my car fully dropped on tein basics?

also here are some pics of the rims tell me what you think

id do 19x8.5 43, 19x8.5 37, 225 tire, cut tab n roll fender...gotta slam your car.. others will tell you something else, like your gonna rub..

09_Type-S

are u sayin different offsets front and back?

02type-s

If you ran the 19x8.5 with a +43, you could have your alignment in spec, but if you want the +37, you will need to run some negative camber. If will have to be slammed too.

09_Type-S

so to get this straight, run the 19X8.5s with +43, just going to have to roll fenders and cut tabs will work with no rubbing being slammed on basics.

02type-s

Yup. Do it and post pics, the rims look sick.

Phrosttz0

yeah i shoulda mentioned some negative camber.. mybad... always run a 225 or smaller on the TL..

09_Type-S

sweet, thanks for the useful info. will the negative camber be enough to cause uneven treadwear, and is the negative camber for the front and back? and ill post pics as soon as i get them, but it wont be until spring because it likes to snow alot here in canada...hah thanks again

oh PS: you know anyone thats looking to buy a TL? 99 black on blacl leather

I would try first just rolling the rear fenders as much as possible, but be sure you heat them up to avoid cracked paint. Trim away as much as is needed from the rear bumper to provide the clearance. You may not need any negative camber, but if you do, it won't be very much, and probably only in the rear. A little bit in the front may be neccessary, but more than likely just the rear.

03 EBP TLS...and no i dont know of any1 wanting one right now, im away from edmonton workn at the moment

09_Type-S

would a less wider wheel work say a 8 or 7.5, just so i dont have to get them rolled or what ever?

Phrosttz0

you could do the 8 and 44 offset, or the 7.5 with the 43 or 55, with a 225 tire

Phrosttz0

you know those are 630 a wheel right?

09_Type-S

yea i really dont want to roll the fender so i might go 8 with 44 or 7.5 w/ 43 or 55, yep i kno there 630 a wheel, pricey but they look so pimp.

02type-s

You could do an 8 with the 44 and you could prolly get away with not rolling fenders, its just that you said before you wanted it flush like the pics, and that won't be.

09_Type-S

well if 8 with 44 works then ill do that. that extra half inch isnt too important i guess, not like i need the extra grip. thaanks man you know your shit

Phrosttz0

well see that extra half inch would get the rim flusher to the fender... not for extra grip.

I am sure he ment extra .5 inch when compared 8.5" wide rim to 8" wide rim.

02type-s

What?

09_Type-S

ok so if you have a +44 offset compared to a +54 offset, that means the +54 is 10mm farther then a 44 would be right? ive seen some pics of 19X8 +45 and that looks good enough to me. so a +44 would just be 1 mm more inwards. correct me if im wrong.

Phrosttz0

outwards

02type-s

Phrosttz0 is right, the lower the number on the offset, the further it comes OUT. Thats why most of the mods say keep the offset high to avoid rubbing. But some of us like it low

09_Type-S

well ive seen pics of 45 work im pretty sure 44 will to without rolling the fenders for 8 inches wide

02type-s

Oh I thought you meant a +44 with an 8.5. You will be fine with an 8 and a +44, I run an 8 and a +40.

09_Type-S

nice, now its just to decide weather i want chrome or polish w/ chrome lip.

02type-s

NO on the chrome, dont ruin it lol.

Phrosttz0

polished plz

spoonspec

Holy SH#T...this is the rim I have in order...I thought I was the only one who thinks these rims are sick....When it comes in Ill tell you what special offset I had them make...

09_Type-S

yea man once i seen these, i had to have them. so you had yours custom made, i cant wait to see what they look like.

pics asap

~C$630 for a rim on a 2nd gen TL? You crazy or got really deep pockets. Guess I am too much a cheap ass to roll on those.

But if you're willing to do what it takes to make the rims fit ... go for it. Just take the advice of those who have done the ground work to push the limits of fitment.

I'd do 19x7.5 with +55 offset to guarantee fitment with small risk of having to do any work (ie cut tabs / roll fenders) -- and with 235 tires. Just make sure you are lowered or else 19s will look really dumb. Maybe 7.5 with +43 offset if you want it more flush (and just cut tabs to start). And yes ... 225 tires to avoid headaches down the road.

gotta pay to play
