18x8 front (255/40/18) and 18x9 rear (275/40/18). They are black Foose legend wheels. Anyone see any fitment issues with this wheel package?
Right on man, thanks for letting me know. I don't know what the back spacing is. Front says offset 1mm and rear says offset 7mm. Is this what you mean?
No, offset is the distance from the center of the wheel to the mounting face. There is - and + offset. http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/tech/techpage.jsp?techid=101 Back space is the distance from the back side of the rim to the mounting face. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n96lE8jdMlQ Back space is far easier to measure. You can figure out back space from offset, but you need to know whether that offset is + or -. There is 25.4 mm in 1", so we are talking very small distances at 1 and 7 mm. For all intents and purposes, in this case, it looks as though the back spacing is at the center of each wheel as offset is very minimal, and we don't know whether it is + or - offset. The center of an 8" wide rim is 4", so back space on that 8" rim has to be about 4", optimal back space on an 8" rim is 4 1/2" for the 70-72 GS. On the 9" wide rim, the center of the rim would be 4 1/2", optimal back spacing would be 5". It looks like you are 1/2" short on back spacing front and rear at best. That might be OK on the front, but the rear may rub on the outside. 7mm is a bit more than 1/4", so if that 7mm is + offset, that would be 4 3/4" backspacing, which would be better. Can you fit them on the car to check?
Test fit them and there was no issues. Mounted tires and installed them yesterday. Fit like a glove! Thanks guys. I would post a pic but for some reason I can't. Error message pops up every time.
With those 40 aspect ratio tires, I hope u have nice smooth roads to travel on. Where I live, with oure "smooth" (not so) roads, aspect 60 is about it.
