Help with rim setup

DawnoffateX · Oct 23, 2009, 09:01 AM

I'm considering picking up a set of volk re30's or te37's (GG evo, time attack 30's or mag blue te37's opinions here too

)

What it comes down to is - i'd like to have the most concave setup without getting super aggressive. I don't intend to run any radical tire or get the fenders rolled or anything. Stock tire sizes most likely, flush setup if possible - what rim size should I be looking at? Will I be able to get a more concave look with an 18" over a 17"?

I just don't want to deal with any rubbing or fitment issues / / spacers. Thanks =)

RE's are hardly concave next to other volks... The TE's will prob. be the most concave out of what you're asking. So you want to keep stock tire width? And have it be flush? Youre looking at like 18x9 +30ish

18x9.5+22 will look sexy

Thanks for the advice, even though it's two seperate pieces =)

Anyone have any examples of either offset/size ? I know the RE's won't be as concave, they don't really need to be - I was speaking more of the TE37's sorry if I wasn't clear about that. I'll do some searching to find what the different rim setups physically look like, I just needed / need an idea of what fits my application/needs - what about 17" ?

if you want concave you need to dip into the +22 range and then you'll need to roll your rear fenders

Making it concaved is the lower offset. The lower the offset the more it's gunna stick out. So fender rolling may be needed.

He said he didnt want to have to roll the fenders though... so I gave him a conservative fitment.

Basically a rule of thumb OP, if you want to be flush, you're going to need to do fender work
