My plan is to run 9.5's and BFG's or 10.5's and A6/R6's.

If I added on flares to my over fenders, like the older Cyber Evo, I could totally fit the 10.5's and BFG's.

More caster will add the needed clearance? Hmm.

 

if you can't fit the bfg's on 10.5's with a wide body kit you're doing something wrong. they will fit the 'stock' body on 10.5's with the right offset.

 

^truth

 

Yes, the offset is wrong for my application. I was on borrowed wheels (off a wide body X), hoping that they would fit for my last event. They obviously didn't, and I wasn't expecting them to.

So yeah, no sh*t something was wrong, lol. I should've mentioned the offset again to avoid confusion.

 

nto3's in 18x10.5 are only like 1200 bucks...

 

Yeah... I need to get a couple more sets.

 

Great! Buy me a set

 

i run a 17x9.5 +30 rpf and the edge of the wheel rubs my rear, lower control arm (for some reason only during auto-x. not HPDE). how could i run a 10.5 +15???

or would that extra 1" diameter move the lip forward enough to clear? i think i just answered my own question. LOL

to run wider.. i have to go 18".

 

Those of us running 18's deal with the same problem.

 

any fix? it's not crazy.. but it did put a 1/16-1/8 little notch in my control arm. wheel still looks really good, though LOL

in my size wheel/offset, i planned to put in a 3mm hubcentric spacer. with the wheels you guys are running with these BFGs, no way could i move the wheel any farther out.

i really, really need to find some kinda wide fender option for my rear. Voltex is overpriced, but i don't see much else to do seeing how the Extreme Dimension copies seem to not fit for crap.

 

when there is a will, there is a way.

lots of work is needed on the rear quarter panels to make the 10.5's work in any offset. The 18's will give you a little more trailing arm clearance but bushing compliance needs to be addressed to let the wheel get closer to the trailing arm and alignment options are pretty restricted to make it work.

 

I should get a picture up of how "pulled" my rear fenders are. I used a grinder on that rear trailer arm to get a few more "hairs" worth of clearance.

 

yeah, pulled is a bit of an understatement of the amount of work that needs to be done. I literally used a sledge hammer. probably 0.5"+ per side wider and 'stanced' levels of negative camber. ...and that is for the 'narrow' offset +30's. +15's are even worse.

 

you can sort of see it here:

 

I actually had to do the same thing too...

My "pull" is here:
