I just took off my buddy's OEM wheels this weekend and was super surprised how heavy they are in comparison to my AC Schnitzers!

I called EAS today and the guy told me that 10.5" would not fit in the rear without major fender pulling and camber. He said that their Z4M running Volk TE37SL's was running a lot of rear camber and still had some rubbing.
That's not going to work for me since I plan to track the car... Sadness

Are your fenders rolled?
Do you rub on full compression? I'm not sure the guy I talked to at EAS was very knowledgeable. He's supposed to call me back with quotes for sizes that fit. He hasn't done so yet (I called around noon today), so i'm guessing he's going to brush me off.

OP --- I ended up going with Apex ARC-8
Front 9.5x18 ET35 255/35-18 Bridgestone S04 Camber~-1.5* Fender Lip Rolled Rear 10.0x18 ET25 275/35-18 Bridgestone S04 Camber~-2.2* Not rolled Ride height all around is about 1" lower than stock on GC Coilovers. With that said, THERE IS NO WAY you are gonna be able to run 10.5x18 ET20 without some serious rear camber and/or fender pulling. I am rubbing on fenders at heavy compression and even with rolled fenders you're only going to buy yourself 8-9mm MAX. You are going to have to do one (or a combination) of the following: Run lots of negative camber (Maybe -3.5*) Pull fenders (not just roll) Run stretched tires I can prevent rubbing by running higher ride height, but that's not going to cut it at the track or if you're at full compression. Show car --- yes. Go car --- no.

I appreciate the info, messing with fenders is something I am not prepared to do. Again thanks very much for the detailed info, I was pretty much set on giving up hope for the 10.5 and going 9.5 anyways this just further confirms it! |

Poor 604skyline is gonna order the wrong size because of all you conservative jerks telling him to go 8.5/9.5 But there is something to be said for a car that can go lock to lock without any surprises!

ps. This is what might fit best: 18x9.5 +40 (this is what I'm running in front with +35) 18x9.5 +20 (I think this will fit)
