2005 FX35 AWD
Hi everyone,

Thinking about getting the Lexani LX 15 22inch black face with chrome lip for my 2005 AWD FX35. The sales at the shop has asked me what wheel specs I wanted as Lexani custom make them to fit ur ride..I am thinking that Lexani should have the wheel specs and details for the FX but just in case, Could someone kindly tell me the spec I should ask for if I want to be flush with no rub cos at the moment I have rubbing issues with my present rims which are the American Burn 337 as they stick out abit and with my Nittos 555 they rub against the arches as I also have a custom suspension set up and i want to go even more lower but can't due to the rubbing issus..Will 22x9.5 5x114.3 and offset 30 be fine without rubbing and to be be flush with the arches..Please let me know the correct specs that I should ask for a clean flush fit...Thanx all..You guys are the BEST!

Regardless of the size of the wheels have you rolled the rears wells and cut the plastic front liner fasteners on the front and rear wheel wheel inner lips? If you truly want a flush wheel set on the FX (and you intend on running an aggressive drop) dialing in the offset is critical but you will need to modify the wells themselves as the FX well lip set-up (plastic plus metal) is much thicker than sedans that run flush....

Just speaking from my current experience, been a lot of tweaking as of late....
