Not a great pic (just took the car off the jack so it's high) but that's 20x10.5" STR 607 front and back. Front is +35 w/ 25mm spacer so +10 and rear is +20 w/ 15mm spacer so +5.



This is ride height


I would not get the 9" width, the concavity is determined by wheel width. 9" will be very flat face. I don't know if the 10.5" width comes in +30, I thought it was +20 or +35. A +35 fits in the front just fine. I'm swapping spacers soon to go more aggressive, going to +5 in front and +0 in rear. Right now at my offsets, the rims poke but I stretched the tire so it doesn't rub. If you run normal sized tires, I think the +35 in front would be fine. +20 in rear would rub unless you roll/flatten your fenders. My rear fenders are modded and so are the fronts.

anyone put 19x10's +20 offset all the way around on the fx35? any pictures of this setup? If not what about 20x9 +15 front 20x10.5 +20 pictures. thinking about going with the STR 607 wheels but they come in some weird sizes.. just looking to see if anyone has gone with any of these sizes. Also will 20x10.5 +30 offset fit the front?

This is the old setup 22" TSW Jarama's 9" front +5 (w/ spacer) and 10.5" in rear +25. 265/40/22 in front and 295/35/22 in rear. I liked the look, but rubbed non stop even after doing everything short of pulling the fenders. The rubbing is more a function of ride height though, if you have just springs, no rub.

Don't get 19's, they won't look that much better than the OEM 18's (Aka they will look way too small still), and you limit yourself tire wise. in 20" you have tons of good tire choices in FX sizing.

Go 20" you wont regret it.

ok awesome.. sounds like im going with 20"

Oh nice! those str's look solid! I'm stoked someone has use this setup cause I've been looking to go with this wheel setup for awhile now. The 20x10.5 look good all the way around, What tire size you running? How much did you feel in difference with going with a bigger wheel if that makes sense?

Just had them put on...Lorenzo 22's (yea cue the Will Smith),wrapped in Spec-Xs.

275/40/20. And the 10.5 doesn't impact steering. I downsized from 22"s and the steering got much lighter. If you get a square setup, it results in less understeer.

What lugs fit those wheels? Or what ones you using? Cause I want to use a black locker type lug.

So I found them at a local shop but they are saying they only come in 20x10.5 +40. Just want to make sure they will fit all the way around with a 275/40/20 tire. Planning on lowering it in the future on a eibach spring setup.

 

[shadow191]

So your local shop only has them in +40? FWIW, it's probably a +35 since that's what STR makes. They don't even list a +40 in 20". Doesn't really matter though. The concavity is the same in all offsets for a given width. So you can always put spacers on to adjust. The wheels will clear the suspension just fine in front and a +35 isn't going to rub in the back. Only clearance issue I had is that before I put spacers on, the +35 grazed my Akebono caliper but it will clear OEM brakes just fine. To get the concavity, there is very little backpad on the +35 offset.

I'd really suggest bigger tires though like 295's. I'm running 275/40's for clearance but my car is slammed. If it were any higher, I'd have gotten the 295's. I may still get 295's next even at my ride height. If you're stock height, a 275/40 tire will look silly. It will still look weird on Eibach's, the wheel gap will still be really big and the slight stretch makes the diameter look even smaller. A 295/40 is still undersized, but it's closer.

And any standard aftermarket tapered lug will work. Just can't use OEM acorns. I think you're looking at M12 x 1.25 thread pitch. 1.5 is Hondas.

Thanks for the reply. Yeah shop said they called str and the 20" only comes in +40 So im sure they are +35. So the 275/40 are to small. Damn ok so if I were to go with 295/40 tire size and later on when I go with the 1.2inch drop from eibach it should look ok? Most likely install the springs in the winter. So hoping the 295/40 will look ok on the stock setup for awhile haha

 

[shadow191]

Hard to explain, but 275/40's look like this. You can sort of see how the overall diameter looks smaller than OEM. So at stock height, there would be a huge wheel gap. You'd get that look like Porsche Cayenne's where the wheels look undersized. And +35 would be tucked with a stretched tire.

Gotcha! So over all 295/40 should look closer to stock? Its hard to get a visual on what they look like with that tire size. Again I a noob when it comes to tire and wheel sizes. I like the look of your setup but im not going to run coils. Just springs later on. But want somthing that has a little poke of wheel but will not look to skinny on a stock ride height if that makes sense.

Sorry for the thread hijack but what wrap is that on your chrome accents? I'm thinking about getting my wheels powder coated and then he chrome wrapped to match. Since my FX is black, I've been wanting to go gunmetal but unsure if I should do gloss or satin. Recommendations have been satin.

Thanks

 

[shadow191]

Chrome door handles, trim, mirrors, and roof were wrapped in brushed black. The brushed texture makes it look like a really dark gunmetal.

 

[Xylez]

Did you do it yourself? If not, remember how much you paid?

Thanks!
