rim size
 

so my friend is willing to give me his ap1 s2k wheels. the rears are 8 and i believe 65 offset. will they fit??

not with a 65 offset.

dammm, will they fit with a spacer possibly?

think we can only fit around 30-45 without rubbing anything

i put the wheel on the studs and all,it starts to hit the strut when the center bore starts to go onto the hub, how big of spacer would i need???

well i could be completely wrong but if the wheel offset is +65mm and you need to get it around +40mm then you would need a 25mm spacer. this is just around 1inch, in theory it would make up for the space on the inside of the wheel well but then it may push it too far outward.

ya i was looking at it and it looks anywhere between like inch and inch and a quarter.i'm not the best with wheel spacers though. i lined it all up and even if it were to have a spacer it would still tuck everything in there just fine. barely but it will be fine. and with the whole knuckle and a good portion on the rear trailing arms inside the rim, won't i get some pretty good handling??

the spacers might help you to prevent the tire from rubbing, but with how much spacing you need, you will also push the wheel right off the hub. you do NOT want the weight of the car to be suspended by the lugs. Unless you can somehow get a longer hub, the rims won't work on the alero.

They make spacers with new wheel studs in them, he would be fine if he wanted to do it that way.

alrighty then.

A good deal isn't a good deal, if you have to spend 100's to make it work and in this case, the 100's still won't make it work.

But hey, you'l look cool sitting on the side of the road with a broken down car ;)
