Stance Fitment

[boostiboo]

So yea im gunna go ahead and admit im a stance guy. Let the hate flow forth.

I drive a 2012 LTZ sedan and have already decided on 17" wheels just because they seem too look nicer than anything larger and any smaller it just dont look right, ill have some camber (not a lot, like -.05 to -1.0) and im curious what the widest wheel i could fit without too many issues would be? ride height will be determined after installation of the wheel and tire. i havent decided if ill be stretching tires or not, if that will effect things too.

Have you checked out this thread? Not sure if your exact answer is in here but it's a good start.

its a good start, and yes ive checked it, i should've worded better but its early as hell and i've been DD'ing all night for college drunkards, anyways i was kinda hoping for peoples personal experiences, mainly cause this is the first time im wanting to properly stance a car and not do what my old teenage self used to do which was cram massive tires on it and slam the heck out of it.

8.5" are pretty easy to fit. 9"+ have been done but it will take more work. Find my build thread (or any of my posts) to see 18x8.5 +35 with a 225 tire. I personally found that to be a nearly perfect look for the car as far as fitment. The rear could have possibly been a little more poked and looked good as well.

DWolfe2010 had a pretty sick stance build. He managed to cram a set of Klutch S15 Wheels that measured 18x9.5" with an offset of 25 under the fenders. He was also running a set of BC Racing Coilovers that were completely slammed.

He won the Sonic of the Month contest for April 2015.

You'd probably have to custom order a set of rims to get 17x9.5" offset 25. Either that, or get a set of Lenso BSX rims which already come in the obscure 5x105 bolt pattern and aggressive fitments.

Oh, I also forgot about Thaifight-R, ZachTullier, and Preloader. They all have/had slammed cars.
