Tein Basic Coilover

concept2 · 08-17-2007, 12:30 AM

Anyone here have the Tein basic installed with a low drop on aftermarket rims? if so what's the rim offset?

I'm looking to buy after market rims and dont want to rub and also dont want to raise my car, it now sits on the tire and only rubs when making aggresive turns: ei; u turns.

Look at this link for offsets.

Wheel Fitment Recipe - wheel offsets that work

If you want to avoid rubbing here's what you can do

1. Get a smaller profile tire
2. Roll your fenders
3. Get wheels with a more positive offset.
4. Less wider rims.

And for an aggressive turns. A U-Turn? I don't know who will take a U-turn aggressively in a FWD car unless they want to flip over or something.

He means turning the wheel the whole way. And I think you're gonna need help from a sedan owner cause I have no problems, and I'm gonna get a low offset, and wide wheels.
