    Wheels / Suspension Trying to get opinions on one of these 24 inch wheels before I pull the trigger.

    Looking to get some feedback before I pick one of these up. Im also concerned with rubbing issues but Im pretty sure Ill be ok. Comments on fitment are welcome as well. Ill be running 24x9.5 on the wheels and 295-35-24's on the tires. Im hoping I dont have to go down to 295-30-24 as Id like a bit more meat between the wheels and the street. Oh also the offset on these is +35 I believe.

    I'll respond more tomorrow but are you on stock springs, lowering springs or coilovers. I'm on my phone so can't look up.

    You're most likely going to rub the lower strut housing unless you go coilovers, and this type of rub means your tire goes up in flames.

    You'll for sure rub inner wheel wells too.

    Yeah Im on stock springs right now. I been trying to look for more info on people running 24's on here but theres not much around. I have seen a couple of people running em but I dont know what they had to do to get them to work. I have 22 inch diablo lionharts on now but they still look too small for my taste. Id really like to get a set of 24's to work. There are a couple of sites that'll guarantee that theyll fit but I really dont wanna get stuck shipping back and forth if they dont for whatever reason.

    Core, there lots of people running 22x8.5 including my self. Im no expert but im pretty sure youll be fine as long as your offset is +35 or higher. I have no issues with mine at all even with with 4 people in the car and as i stated im on stock springs.

    Didn't see you are a second gen.

    From the looks of this post, you are 100% fine:

    I'm not feeling the two-tone black/silver, but that's just me. I'd like the last one in all silver, similar to what jonny917 has in the post above.

    You're fine for sure, just don't get over sized tires. I personally like 265/40/22. You might rub a little with 285/40/22. 285/35/22 is another option.
