18x9.5 +35 Fitment enquiry.....

[brenton]

yeah unfortunately the Ebay store selling them (h3motorsport) is outta stock.... found some on Ebay US and emailed them, also out of stock, tried JDM Yard he was outta stock, LSD motorsports USA out of stock, NLmotoring USA out of stock lol I have chased everytwhere lol.

Thinking its going to be the Rota T2R option or G Forces..... the T2R being 18x9.5 +35 may be pretty difficult from what im finding. Im happy to do mild guard work but dont really want to run stupid amounts of camber car will be doing 5 hour drives every other weekend once the snow starts falling so would like tyre wear lol

ah icic!!!
i like the rota T2R's but the XXR look so much better for some reason lol.

did any of the people you called for the XXR 527's say when they will be back in stock or any idea?

[libz05]

hey brenton!
so u rkn 18x8.75 (5x100) +35 wll fit fine on the lib!
ive only had my front guards rolled atm! so i may need to roll my back gaurds as the car is sitting quite low on coils.
im currently speaking to a mob over in U.s who i think may be able to source them!

[brenton]

I just ordered mine through LSD motorsports.... much cheaper than buying them here... they said im looking at between 2-5 weeks for stock but places over here are saying 3-5 months.
spoke to a few US companies and they are getting stock through already but are all reserved for people on waiting lists.

pretty sure they will need a bit of a roll and maybe slight push with a guard roller but not too bad as far as I can tell. they will sit 50mm or so further out than standard 6.5j +55 offset wheels... will be hoping to squeeze a 235 under but happy to stretch a bit if need be. rather stretch a bit than run stupid amounts of camber to avoid guard work.

did you end up getting XXR 527's?? what are the specs of the rims?
im thinking of trying out the XXR 526's in Chromium Black?!?! what u rkn?
unfortunately these are the only specs of wheels they offer:

18"
XXR 526 18x9 Chromium Black 5-114.3/5-120 +35 Offset
XXR 526 18x9 Chromium Black 5-114.3/5-120 +25 Offset
XXR 526 18x9 Gloss Black 5-114.3/5-120 +35 Offset
XXR 526 18x9 Gloss Black 5-114.3/5-120 +25 Offset
XXR 526 18x10.5 Chromium Black 5-114.3/5-120 +20 Offset
XXR 526 18x10.5 Gloss Black 5-114.3/5-120 +20 Offset

from what i know the liberty PCD is 5 x 100. not 5 x 114.3 but as u can see there isnt.
will 5 x 114.3 be fine on my liberty??
so if it does im gonna to be getting "XXR 526 18x9 Chromium Black 5-114.3/5-120 +35 Offset"

[rooby]

Nope, that is basically the distance across your hub bolts, so they won't line up with the holes in the rim.
It is possible to convert but not worth the effort in my opinion.

[brenton]

na dude 114.3 is a no go.
can get 5x100 -> 5x114.3 conversion spacers but are generally a 20mm spacer so that would bring the offset and size to a 18x9 +15 which is no good for subaru without massive camber and guard work in my understanding (as limited as that currently is)

Anyone got the actual fitment/wheel spec's or more info on ^^^ that wagon? Or a link to the build/setup? I know the XXR 527's come in 18x8.75 5-100/5-114.3 +35mm (73.1 center bore), just wondering if that is what this GT wagon is running. Its always hard to tell concavity of wheels from just a spec sheet, but those 527's are just what I'm after!

They look completly flush with the body, so by my calculations the size you posted sounds about right.
Do they come in 19"? Looking again they actually seem quite tall.

[starship303]

Yeah the rears are tucking, although that car is very low and running a lot of camber so its hard to tell. One thing I'm not sure on is if 18x8.75 et35 will clear my Bilsteins (on STi pinks). I have a contact who rolls guards and does great work so have little quarms about that, but just getting coilovers to fit rims is a PITA...

[bosc0]

http://www.rimsntires.com/specs.jsp would give you a fair idea of clearnances.
