It's rubbing

335R1 · 02-24-2010, 05:49 PM

I have 18" ssr staggered wheels. My rear is 275/35/18 and it's rubbing. front is 225/45 and it's fine. Solutions?

roll fenders? or buy new tires. plus i think ur sizes are way too different

alpha325i · 02-24-2010, 06:02 PM

whats the offset?

Gavin@MMW · 02-24-2010, 06:11 PM

a 275 in the rear on a e92 is going to rub without a fender roll. you should be on a 265

Weird tire sizes. 225/40/18 and 255/35/18 or 235/40/18 and 265/35/18 are better combos.

that number is the width of the tires right? It's the ssr gt3. I think the rear is 9.5. It's pretty deep. I didn't think you can go lower than 275 if the wheels are 9.5. So, if I replace the rear wheels with 30 it should rub less, but that means I need to get new front tires also. Wouldn't rolling the fenders affect resale of the car? How much does that usualy run?

265 is fine on 9.5" wheel. Some people here even run 265 on 10" wheels.

I have a 265 on my 10" rim. You definitely need to go with 265s. 275 would work if it was 275/30, but 35 is too tall. You may have a really aggressive offset though.. that would help to know.

offsets would help out tremendously...

I feel like a dumbass coming back into this game, but what is offset again? It's the width of the wheel right? Lionheart, I'll give you a ring if i can't resolve this. It's 330 in the morning here.
