c7024 Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 Everyone, I hav a 2000 C70 and am lookin into a wheel and tire combo to finish the project. What is the largest known wheel and tire combo I can fit without rolling the fenders or doing anything else crazy. I'd live to fit a 18X10.5.

Burn-E Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 19s and even 20s fit but you go wider than 8.5 and you're rubbing. At least in the front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exexpat Posted February 25, 2012 Report Share Posted February 25, 2012 This is the biggest front: 20x9 ET30 with 225/30/20 I could have put 20x10.5" or 20x11" in the rear with the correct offsets and tires. Mine was also a 2000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost Shadow Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 What tire size are you running out of curiosity? 235.35.19 fronts 265.30.19 rears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timbo Slice Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 Sorry to thread jack, but Steve, do you rub in the fronts with 235? I've got 235.40.18 that rub like motherfuckers. They're wrapped around 18" Pegs, not exactly sure what I can do to fix it as I'm not the most knowledgable when it comes to offsets and whatnot.

Ghost Shadow Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 nope. why dont they? here is why. on my c70 with bilstein HD's and qbm endlinks and eibachs i needed 30 mm front spacer/adapters. so my fronts went from 19x9.5 62et offset to 32mm offset to clear suspension.AND i had to roll the fenders and liner and such. Now with my D2 Coilovers i can use my 20mm spacers/adapters and did not need the lip work. I probably can run 245/35/19's again. the D2's are much much smaller diameter shocks.

Timbo Slice Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 I need a time to seriously get under the car and see where it is rubbing. Like I said I have 18" pegs wrapped in 235.40.18 with OEM struts and IPD springs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
