What are the lowest offsets/ highest widths youve seen on a GE?

Any pics of that set-up?

Just trying to see if anyone has done anything as agressive as I am about to haha! Im freaking out about the camber in the rear

 

maybe this one, https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/2nd-...25-misfit.html

still think yours is gonna be even more nuts?

 

17x9.5 Et 38, 2" lip (215/40)
17x10.5 ET 25, 3" lip (235/40)


Thats what he is running - His offsets arent even that low bro... Width is crazy but Ill be running -

16x8.5 +20
16x9 +14
205/40 all around...

Given my calculations -

Ill be sticking out .3" further in the front and my rears will be just a TAD more inset than his... Since his width is so high compared to mine... Just dont wanna fuck up my rear fenders like he did to fit them... Was hoping to camber but no go! Ill have to do a slight pull, but Im hoping the guy Ive got doing mine wont mess em up.

 

I'm curious...why do the numbers matter to you? Is lowest and widest really that much of a competition?

 

whoevAr can most negatively affect the cars handling wins!!!


not my thing >_<

 

These are the wheels I have... Im trying to make sure they will fit... If they will NOT fit I will either - Get a GD model instead of my GE or get another xB to fit the wheels appropriately...

You also have to understand, that if I can in fact fit these wheels on the GE I will have the lowest offset wheels on a GE period... Of course my width will not be what the other chap has, but flush is everything.

No competition... Though, Offset is everything mate.

 

just do a rear axle swap that has a rear camber kit and call it a day..lol..i kidd...

 

Thats what I wanted to do - But too rich for my blood haha!

What I plan on doing is having a local shop cut the welds on the rear end and re-weld with the proper camber/toe in place... Should be fairly easy for them.

 

Hellagay. That is all.

 

Don't get me wrong...I dig the wide and low look...stretched tires, camber, rolled fenders...

...But it kinda struck me as funny that you asked for the lowest numbers so you could beat them. Seems like hollow victory even if you DO have the lowest offset on a GE, since someone can look at your numbers and go even wider!

And you said "flush is everything" and "offset is everything." I would disagree and say stance/fitment is everything. When I see some "hellaflush" fitment on the road, I don't stop them and ask what they are running....I just say WOW!

Again, not trying to bust your chops or give you a hard time...Just throwing out some perspective so it doesn't turn into a numbers race. Make those wheels work, post up some pics, and if it is done right, you won't have to say anything...peeps will look on with amazement (me included!!!!)

 

No no no - haha! You missed the point of the thread... Maybe it was my fault!!!!

I wanted to know what the lowest offsets were on the GE so I could make sure it Fits!!!! Im worried they wont, I figured, if someone has done it!? Then I could make assertions as to what I would need to do to make them fit... If that makes sense...

As for Hellaflush, I like the style of it, and only do it to cars lacking in performance... =/. My GE8 will NEVER be fast/sporty it will always be a nice economical car from Honda...

IMO - It is a perfect canidate for this type of look... Since Im not "sacrificing" anything to do it =/.

It might seem dumb to some of you, which is fine! We all have our different strokes!

 

haha alright man, you asked for lowest offsets / highest widths we've seen on a GE

 

15x8 +15 offset all the way around, see pic below.

 

well, its not the lowest offset...but it works for me.

17x7.5 +35 (215/40/17)
17x8.5 +25 (225/40/17)

it has a nice pull so i can run wider in the future (w more stretch)









btw they do sit pretty flush both front and rear w/ -1 camber all corners =)

 

^ Looks good!

How far did you pull the rears?
What are you dropped on?
How did you attain -1 camber in the rear? Factory setting?

 

im sitting on buddyclub n+ coilovers. fronts were alligned to -1 at the shop andthe rears came with the camber when i installed the c/o =) and as for the pull....i dont know how much mm...but it was a pretty big pull. w/o the pull the rims would stick out at about 1/2in (eye balling) lol. hope it helps.
btw ur offsets are sick..cant wait to see em. u will need plenty of pulling haha. GL and post pics!

 

Thanks! Yea we are gonna pull a lot in the rear... Just hoping I wont need fender flares to fit them lol!

Ill post pics asap - btw - Ordered my Buddy Clubs too! They will be here soon!

 

i see, cool. fyi buddyclubs springs com.press quite a bit especially going up driveways. be careful! lol

 

Well with as low as I am going... and as stiff as they will be... Movement shouldnt be an issue... I wish they would make coilovers that restricted movement to only .2 inches

 

^^^^Be sure to wear a kidney belt!
