Test fit the SSR GT3's What do you think? (Pic)

Aqualan · 12-04-2009, 03:41 PM

I bought some 19X8.5 and 19X9.5 +43 offset wheels and testfit them beore I bought tires. It's pretty tight, but there is 12mm between the inside of the front wheel and the strut. I thought the rears would be the issue but they are fine. Is it safe, or should I add some 10mm spacers, or just ditch em, and start over? Sorry for the large pic, I'm at work and cannot resize.

8.5 +43 fronts? sure its safe and sunk. Imo would ditch them for something wider, the 9.5 rears do not make a statment.

If they are +43 all around I would run 12mm spacers up front and 15mm spacers in the rear

Not really sure what you mean. The tires are going to be 265/30/19's I could go 275's to get the front and rear diameters Very close, as the 265's will have a slightly larger diameter.

Excellent, Thanks for the advice. I was hoping they would fit because I love the wheels.

Thanks All. I talked to my tire guy yesterday, and I'm putting 10mm on the front, and 15mm, maybe even 20mm on the rear. I'm glad they fit, because I love the style of these wheels.
