Wheel and Tire Advice requested

Hey all,

Need some of you wheel/tire/offset wizards to help me out here. I have new wheels on order, 10.5Jx22 and 12Jx22. Offsets are 40 front and 35 rear. From what i understand these are fairly close to my current 599's (40F and 38R).

Tires sizes I need to order is:

295/30/22 F and
335/25/22 R

correct?

I purchased Eibach pro kit from RG. Pla on lowering it that route.

Finally, with those offsets should I still consider spacers? If so, what would be ideal?

The fronts are the same but depending on the style of the rim it could protrude back into the caliper and your rears will stick in 3 mm more which is about a 1/8 of an inch, so I would think you should be ok but 335 is beastly.

That's a correct tire sizes.
The offset though, is it custom wheel?
If it not, then you have no choice but to run a spacer.
With 599 wheels offset, I do recommend 5/12 for conservative setup or 15/15 for aggressive setup.

It is a rep wheel set. I have a 2014 50i m sport and I remember reading about the spacers on the 14s were a bit different. Wasn't it something's like 5/15. Would that still be advisable with the wheels above and thr drop w/ Eibach?

With the new version of spacer, you can fit 15mm to the front.
And with that offset, 15/15 should be good.

I am unaware of the "new" version. Which one would you be referring to on your website. PM me if you want.

Thanks again.

I haven't made different listing yet.
Just PM me directly if you want it.
Currently working on the new website. So, the current one won't be updated.
