VMR VB3s in 19x8.5 (et33) and 19x9.5 (et40)

Hellrot Sachin · 06-23-2011, 09:22 PM

Hey all.. I'm just got a set of VMR VB3s (finally). I plan on installing 255/35 out back at 235/30 up front... I am dropped around 1.25" all around. By my math, a 10-12mm spacer in the rear and a 5-10mm one up front would fit, but I'm wondering if that's the norm as I'd expect the offsets to be perfect as-is.

Thanks!

Sachin

it seems a lot of people do add spacers in the rear when running +40 offset, but i'm not sure if that required them to roll the fenders or not....

I have VB3's 19inch et 33 9.5f and et 38 10inch rear. With my offsets you def don't need front spacers, back, I currently have 12mm spacers which rub occasionally.

What suspension are you running with 12mm in the rear?

The tire sizes you should be running if you are running 225/255's should be a 225/35 and a 255/30. I would double check that first.

As far as spacers, you can throw a 5mm spacer up front safely. I would recommend you grab a measuring tape to see your rear clearance. Your current offsets would be a +40 front and +33 rear, prior to spacers.
