I know wheels have been covered before but I wanna know what the lowest offset 19" wheel someone is running on their M35 or PM35 stag. I'm looking at a 19x11 +10 rear and 19x10 +23 front, I know the fronts will fit but unsure of the rears? The car is on air and I know ill have to run a fair amount of camber.

Camber is not a solution for wheels that don't fit. The wrong camber will upset your handling and chew out tyres. Modifying the guards is the way to go. Or getting wheels that fit.

BTW the smallest tyres you should run on 11in rims is 275 - better is 285 or 295 (max 305)

The stance life is obviously not your life. I understand alot of camber will wear my tires faster but I'm wanting to know what the lowest offset someone is running on their car. I need to clear big brakes and want a lot of dish.

Yeah you aren't going to make too many friends on here or (by the looks of it) get any decent responses.

search function helps too but i'm not sure you will find much info on what looks good stance life wise

Good lock

Stance life is not the popular life on here that's for sure.

So yu have big brakes for looks also?

I understand alot of people hate stanced cars, im not one of those blokes running double digit camber and scrapping on leafs. The big brakes are an upgrade over the stock shitty ones, I thought I may as well go big. 356mm fronts and 330mm rears

Yep I'm one of those who prefers function to stance but hey its your car - go for it. But I doubt you'll fit 19 x 11 with 10P without modifying the guards and perhaps not even then if its fouling on the inside..

I've been on that site quite abit but it's hard without having the wheels to test it in person. The guards will definatelly have to be modified, time to test fit some wheels I guess.

Here's a start, more aggressive than the specs you've listed but something to throw in to an offset calculator to compare if nothing else.

Perfect stagea, im buying very similar wheels. With everything online I'm not sure if people are using spacers, I don't want to.

There is never any need to use spacers if you can afford to buy the right offset. But note that the featured car has had megabucks spent on reshaping not just the guards but the doors

I understand that car is far from stock and no doubt it isnt using spacers, however there's alot of cars that do run them. I think I've found some offsets that I'll be able to work with though. 19x9.5 +10 and 19x 10.5 +15

That M35 above is mine. Yes semi slicks are gone, replaced them with 245/35/20 on the 9.5 fronts and 275/30/20 on the 10.5 rears. Fronts have 25mm spacers to clear the brakes but still fit under the guard without a problem.

My rear tyres have around 3mm clearance to the plastic guard with camber around -1.5 (not sure haven't had an alignment lately). Non axis models don't have the plastic guards so may be different for you.

Depending on tyre size you could possible get a 19x11+10 to fit, but camber would be up a bit.

Also, just curious, which air setup did you get? And is your car RWD or AWD?

    • I know this one’s the BB one. My tuner did make mention about the actuator. I am curious about the VCT as well
    • Might also needs a stronger actuator with the right preloading. With older 2019 built bush G3 units, BB upgrade or 21U housing down size makes a pretty decent gain in response as well. 
    • Hey lads  so im finally putting together my rb30 forged bottom end and ran into an issue. I measured my main bearing clearance with arp main studs torqued to 60 ft-lbs using ACL H series STD size bearings and standard, un-ground crank shaft journals and got an oil clearance reading of about 1.3 thou measuring straight up and down and about 2.8 thou measuring at a 45 degree angle (just above and below the parting line). My machine shop said they measured the main tunnel and it was all within spec (they didnt say the actual measurement) and to go with a standard size bearing, which i have done and the clearance is too tight, I'm guessing because of the extra clamping force from the arp studs distorting the main tunnel. I was wanting to run about 2.5 thou main bearing clearance.  My questions are: 1. could i just use the HX extra 1 thou clearance ACL bearings? that would fix my straight up and down clearance making it about 2.3 thou, but then would the side to side clearance be too big at around 3.8 thou? 2. what actually is the recommended main bearing clearance for measuring near the parting line / side to side. i know its supposed to be bigger as the bearing has some eccentricity built into it but how much more clearance should there be compared to the straight up and down measurement? at the moment there is about 1.5thou difference, is that acceptable or should it be less? 3. If i took the engine block + girdle back to the machine shop and got them to line bore the main tunnel (like i told them to do the first time, but they said it didnt need it) what bearing size would i buy? the STD size bearing shells already slide in fairly easily with no real resistance, some even falling out if i tip the girdle up-side-down. If im taking material out of the main tunnel would i need a bearing with extra material on the back side to make up for it? this is probably confusing af to read so if something doesn't make sense let me know and ill try explaining in a different way. My machine shop doesn't come back from christmas break until mid January, hence why i'm asking these questions here. TIA for any help or info 
    • I bought the model back in Japan in Feb. I realised I could never build it, looked around for people who could build it, turns out there's some very skilled people out there that will make copies of 1:1 cars or near enough. I'm not really a photo guy... but people were dragging me in a group chat for the choice of bumper as someone else saw the car before it was finished as they are also a customer of that shop. I took the photo in the above post because I was pretty confident that the lip would work wonders for it. Here's some more in-progress and almost-done pics. It gives a good enough idea as to what the rear looks like!   I have also booked in a track day at the end of January. Lets all hope that is nothing but pure fun and games. If it's not pure fun and games, well, I've already got half an engine spare in the cupboard 
    • Well, do ya, punk? Seriously though, let's fu<king go! The colour and kit looks amazing on the car. Do you have any shots from the rear? I don't quite follow how the model came around. You bought the white kit and he modified it to match your car? Looks nuts either way!
