hush you, its slammed for a static drop,

 

If you say so...
try a 265/40/22 on your 9.5 front rims and it will work...like you want it to....

 

well the only other sizes avaliable in a 22 smaller than mine are
285/30 22 and 265/35 22......

both of which would have a shorter sidewall than what I have now

that still doesnt help my offset problem

(dribone for ex has a +40 offset using the 265/35 22)

 

I've always had a hard time understanding the offset thing... eventually i'm going to move up to the 265/40's to fill out the wheel well a little more. you'll really tear up your rims on the curbs with the 265/35's.

 

i'm tearing them up now with 275/45's your +40mm offset is more like the factory offset where my +25mm makes the rims stick out further. I've done alot of drawings in cad to check offset and tire widths but sometimes trial and error is what really works. widht my tire rim combo now the bulge of the tire sticks out about and inch and a quarter the new setup will only stick out about a half an inch.... perfect for oem fender flares


OH YA, with your 3.5 drop up front how much clearence so you have between the tire and fender lip?

 

the only issue i would see with that is if you're going to slam the front, are you going to have enough travel so the tire doesn't rub directly on the fender lip?

 

see my question above.

I've got 2 and 3 inch drop coils ATM and maybe with another kind of drop (spindles shocks) I have a little room to play with

how was the clearence with the 3 inch coil? with the tire your runnin right now it looks like you could have went with a 4 inch drop

 

i've got 2 1/2" from tire to fender. 3" coil gave about 3" of clearance. hard ride though. 4" drop you could do a 2" arm and 2" coil. Hopefully in a couple weeks it'll drop ANOTHER 4 inches or so...

 

 

AWESOME. I was going to shoot for about 1.5-2 inches up front with the new tire
