those 18x10 XD9s don't clear the brembos by nearly 20mm.

I tried to tell the vendor on Nasioc that but he didn't believe me.

***AW04WRX*** · 02-18-2008, 09:20 AM

rich here are the best possible solutions

a) trade me your front brake setup
b) trade wheels
c) /yourself

T3h_Clap · 02-18-2008, 09:20 AM

Munky from what I'm reading work requires a 17x9 +28mm in the front.

Work says the +38mm doesn't clear either.

that's interesting.

subwrxkid · 02-18-2008, 09:34 AM

oh boy.

15mm spacers?

munky69 · 02-18-2008, 10:01 AM

sux cuz these are the only 17's i want

T3h_Clap · 02-18-2008, 10:30 AM

they'll fit a WRX with 4 pots no problem.

i bet you could sell them for more then you paid if you find someone who doesn't whore out the GB section.

munky69 · 02-18-2008, 10:36 AM

thats the plan

i guess i'd just sell them and keep my eye open in local fs ads for something good

***AW04WRX*** · 02-18-2008, 01:55 PM

well that sucks

munky69 · 02-18-2008, 06:55 PM

they went up $40 a wheel. so if they don't fit i want to sell them and get the 18x9 xd9 or 18x9.5 xt7. but i want conf they fit

ravspec is smart enough to test fit them tomorrow i think, on a 05+

subwrxkid · 02-18-2008, 07:12 PM

***** who got faded now. You got wheels that don't fit.

holler!

***AW04WRX*** · 02-18-2008, 07:14 PM

Omg ! Zing!

the 18x9 +43mm XD9 is confirmed to clear by a few people on the boards.

the 18x9.5 +38mm XT7 is confirmed to clear by work.

munky69 · 02-19-2008, 06:30 AM

if it doesnt work out with these i'm leaning twds playin it safe with the xd9's

i'd prob have to get camber plates with the 18x9.5's right? ....

i hope your 18's don't fit over your project mu's d

T3h_Clap · 02-19-2008, 06:36 AM

you'd want to get plates if you could, although it is feasible without them.

the biggest thing with the 9.5s is to run any really tire on them (265s) you need -3.0 front camber.

then again you've got a daily

munky69 · 02-19-2008, 07:09 AM

i'd want 255's. gonna start dabbling into auto x this summer

think i'd need plates for that?
