18.8.5 & 19.9.5 spacer question
 

Greetings and thanks for your input.

I have searched here for reference, and some conflicting...

2005 SRT-6

"I Have New Rims ADR" they are...

Front 18.8.5 35mm offset with original tires cont's 225 40 R 18 (new tires).
Rear 19.9.5 35mm offset with original tires cont's 255 35 R 19 (new tires).

Will be using H&R Hubcentric 20MM spacers for the Rear. Are These required ? or is this for cosmetics ??


So for the front do I need spacers ? (also want a good cosmetic look as this car never goes to the track).

I see some are using 10, 12, mm spacers up front ?

Thanks for your input.

I believe the rears are 19 X 9 and not 19 X 9.5. Not positive, but I think that's the number I remember.

Bump...

Thanks for any input.

I was looking at some ADR rims the other day. I believe the stock front rim is a 35mm offset and 7.5" wide, so the ADR 8.5" 35mm will stick out towards the fender one inch farther. So I'd say no need for a spacer up front.
11.7mm = 1/2 inch.

so a 20mm spacer on the rear would probally work to compensate for the higher 35mm offset on the 9.5" ADR, compared to the stock 22mm 9" rim. That's the way I see it. I think someone has pics with a 20mm spacer on here somewhere. :confused:

How are the 225s working on a 1 inch wider wheel? would it have been safer or easier to go with a 235? I am looking to do likewise but with a 20"wheel all around same make and offset at 35 mm. I'm just curious as to the possible stretching of the 225 on an 8.5 rim when this same 225 fits a 7.5 rim! Would you be kind enough to answer if you know would a spacer be needed anywhere on this car using 35mm offsets front or back.

I have 18X8.5 wheels on the front with a 35MM offset and 19X9.5 wheels on the rear with a 35MM offset. I use the standard size tires on front and rear and need no spacers. No rubbing or other problems at all.

Ummm...didn't get the PM. Maybe just delayed?

Re: 18.8.5 & 19.9.5 spacer question
 

yes, assuming the offset is the same, an 8.5" wheels is going to stick out 1/2" more (and stick "in" 1/2" more...be careful about getting too close to that ball joint bolt).
