Help! Wheel Question!

Holy Crap King....what the hell did you do run over a giant tortoise or something? Yikes.

 

dave - i am assuming you are talking about squeezing a 295 onto a stock rim???? i would have to measure the contact patch of my nieghbors car (he has 275 front/295 rear on stock rims)..... i do believe you are correct though!!

 

no gents, that is not what i am saying........ all i said was that the "bulge" is not something i prefer for myself..........bad enough i have it at my waist line, i do not need any on my tires!!!! :shok:

 

he lives in wyoming...... probably a buffalo or something....... a big turtle would be here in florida!!!! hahahahahaha

 

Seriously, I was admiring the nice blue hue of my 5-minute-before install of 8000k headlamp bulbs (which was the reason for my foray). Drove over a transition lip on an off-ramp in a little construction area.

Legshaker, I live in a completely inhospitable area of Wyoming. There is no life here. I keep waiting to see Les Stroud booking across my back yard toting a camera and nibbling on some lichen.

 

dahahahahahahaha........ thats the guy from survivor man right????? hahahahahaha

 

jason - i could see a 295 without cutting the plastic fender well, 305 / 315 with some cutting and clearanceing. as for spacers, bones ent. used to make them, but i heard that they dropped off the face of the earth. you can buy universal ones (what i have now) but would recommend getting some custome machined to fit right so as to eliminate the chance of any vibration in the rear.

as for tires, i struggled finding matching tires in a 245/45 and 295/40. i ended up with nitto 420's in a 245/45 and 285/40.

 

I ordered 3mm spacers from them a week ago.

 

did you get them yet?????? i got two and realized they were waaaaay too thin for what i actually needed!!!! i never actually measured the universal ones i had before i order the bones ones over a month ago, and low and behold if the 3mm are half of what i actually need!!!! anyway, i ordered two more a few weeks ago and have not heard squat since???????

This is the person I dealt with on the phone. I asked for 5mm spacers and it seemed to confuse her. She conferred with someone and came back saying these are what I needed. I asked if they made any bigger and she repeated that these were what I needed.
I ordered them as I wasn't planning on anything bigger than 295s on the rear anyway.
I do have tracking info on the spacers however and should get them tomorrow.
Hope this helps.

 

Showed up today. 3mm spacers from Bones

 

Another MOMO thread started, but it has helped those actually doing MODS!
