max rim width for a slamed rvr

[Steve B.]

Hi can any of you guy or gals tell me what size rims you are running on your lowered hsgr;s i have 17" alround 8" on the front and 9" on the rear and if the back end drops down by more than about 40mm the rims start to rub the shocks are my rears to wide to drop the suspension if so what size do i need to come down to. thanks for any input on the subject. Steve.

Steve I'll be trying on some 18 x 9.5 on the rear soon, I would not know until I complete my brake setup and have those wheels put on.

Can anyone verify the stock suspension for RVR? Mine has RSG writing on there...

good luck with that i honestly dont see how you can possibly get those under the arches and clear the rear shocks

the stock rear shocks for the rvr are KYB MR333572 as of yet im not sure about the springs.

I'm running 17x 8.5s on the rear with a 225-50-17 with 4mm spacers. I've got plenty of clearance with the spacers on it. RVR is pretty low on Evo 9 shocks. It's the fronts i get scrubbing on, on the outside of the gaurd. Same suspension setup, Evo 9 Struts and springs.

Offset the bottom made room for my Rays 18 x 9.5
Also moved the fuel filler tube further in.

Cheers !

I'm running 19x 8.5's under mine. Front coilovers (110mm height) / Rear with lowered pedders springs (130mm height) Front's will scrub in hard turns but i need to flare my guards. Otherwise it's not too bad really.
