Can I do it or will i have problems,

EDMSOL · 01-20-2009, 01:26 PM

running sportline springs with the 19" staggered gravana J2's/Manarch 410's am i going to run into rubbing with the fenders when hitting bumps or what not. due to the offset of the wheels and them sticking out a little further then stock wheels

I really want the extreme drop i just want to make sure i dont run into any problems with rubbing once i drop my car, and i have not seen a pic of a car with these wheels and the sportline springs

You will be fine.... Unless your tires stick out beyond the lip of the body panel.... Even with your car lowered it will hit the bump stop at the same place as stock. So if you don't rub now you are good.... I have 45mm offset on mine and they are almost flush with the body. Haven't had any problems...

19x8.5 Front 45 offset
19x9.5 Rear 55 offset

Yea, the front is where you would have the rubbing and I have had mine going several months now and no problems... It doesn't even rub on hard turns or steep driveways...

Why did you run a duplicate thread? I do believe that you were given an answer in the thread lowering with sportline springs. which is the thread right below this one.......

Sorry the correct post is "sportline springs install and pictures" anyway a dupe post........

no one got into a answer on these rims and offsets one person answered on tire size but that has nothing to do with rim width and offsets. I got a answer on a camber kit but nothing about if these rims will rub when lowered with the sportline springs. so i do not believe i have gotten a proper answer Thanks.

The car that Aftershock Designs models thier parts on has the 19 inch j2 wheels on it, not sure about the rubbing issue though. Nice set of wheels thought about buying a set myself, good luck! aftershock products

That is correct. I have the 19" wheels with the Eibach Pro kit springs. However, there's still a slight gap in the rear wheels that I purchased the sportlines and plan to replace them before spring. Ideally would like to go with adjustable coilovers in the future so I'll have more control with the ride height and stiffness.

To answer your original question, there are no issues or rubbing with these 19's using the Pro-kit and I don't think you'll have issues with the Sportlines. Do post pics after the install if you get them done before I do. Thanks.

I am sure i wont have them on before you, they are special order for me to get them localy up here they are special order 4-6weeks away, and for me to buy them out of the states with exchange rate and shipping they are more money,

then i would have to wait for nice weather and all the snow to melt before getting them on so it would be 2-3 months lol

I have had a ton of wheels on my car. 18s,19s,20s and 22s and I didnt have any problems until I went with 22s. Had to take out the fender liners.
