not to highjack the thread or anything, I just don't like creating another thread regarding wheel offsets.

I hope you don't mine 08GTSLancerBlue


Hey guys, do you have any idea on what's the minimum offset for the Lancer GTS?

I'm planning on getting Work Emotion XT-7 w/ 18x7.5 +42 offset, I'll be using 235/40/18 Tires on them. Will my setup fit w/ TEIN S.Tech Lowering Springs?

So we can fit 245/40/18 ? I'm lowered with TEINs and I'm running now 235/40 and are amazing...

Thing is, I just got my new tires like a month ago... I'm getting Volk CE28s with Falkens 245/40/18 for $1,500 and the Falkens are brand new.

I think it really depends on the specifics. So how low you are, what alignment setup you're running, how often you have people in the back, offset of the wheels and what tires you're using (some run wider than others). It could be close and you may have to roll the rears.

Specs of the Volk CE28Ns are

18x8.5 +30 and I rarely have people in the back just the passenger side seat...

I'm lowered with TEINs...still have a 2 finger gap all around even with my 235/40/18s now...

The offset might be too low, I would be iffy on that.

That's what was probably going to happen. Thing is, I have no clue where to find anyone to roll my fenders
