- 2014 Scion FRS / Subaru BRZ with 18x8.5 rims with +35 offset (all 4). Tires are 225/45/R18
They are overall bigger than stock. I wanted to avoid lowering it and tried to cheat, but didn't work (I suppose some 19s would work lol), but I will still have to drop her down an inch.
The bigger tires do give a softer ride, so that is nice.
YES the speedometer will be 4 MPH under at 100, but I don't mind.
I don't know too much about wheels or what will happen when I lower it (camber etc), but I'll keep you posted.
The one thing I'm still confused about is if "DECREASING THE OFFSET NUMBER PUSHES THE WHEELS OUT AND INCREASING THE OFFSET SUCKS THE WHEELS IN." then why is the +35 in the front sticking out if +32 should be flush? Oh well, hope this helps someone!
Brooo this is the video I needed soo badly 😂
After looking forever for video on this set up I found one. Perfect video!!
Everything is preference. It honestly looks really good to me.I myself have BRZ and just ordered 255/35 all around and wheel size 18x9.5 with a 35 offset
Thanks man. Its been a few years, still have the same setup and its looking good.
Does 18x 9.5 .35 offset rub at all on stock suspension?
@@go5779 no it clears.
That’s the setup I’m looking at getting. No issues with 255’s up front?
Nice vid man , you really helped me decide
Thanks for watchin!
Not sure who said 35 would be flush on 8.5 inch rims but 35 would be expected to stick out about half an inch. For 8.5 inch wheels you need a front offset of 40-43. 40 to be flush with the top of the fender, 43 to be flush half way down the fender. It still would look a bit weird imo, and you'd be scary close to suspension parts. And for the rear 37-40 offset, again it would look weird imo. Wheel math is fun.
Thanks for tha help thas the info i need I appreciate it 🙏🏽🙏🏽i was looking im going with that size for sure looks good
thank you so much for showing this side by side -
Car maybe slow but atleast it looks badass in that all white. I JUST (like 15 mins ago) pulled the trigger on these 18/8.5/35 Offset. Your vid made the decision feel not bad. We shall see lol. I was like f it after calling like 4 shops, googling the shit out this and etc.
Michael nadolski thanks! Ya once I get like an inch drop it's going to be legit. Good luck w your wheels
TravelingDirector I’m prolly gunna follow your lead, ordered my coilovers by Megan (red)... now all I got to get is the tires. Thanks man!

1.) You didn't edit your video, so what's the point of covering it?
2.) There's nothing wrong exposing your license plate. It's literally there for the public to see in the first place.
Fr i always laugh so hard when people cover the PUBLIC PLATES, like VIN maybe but come on
it really is a nice look. coming from someone who is probably gonna be too lazy to put coilovers on his car, this is the look I want
I like the white wheels.. sharp on your car
Lowering springs or coilovers if you just wanna full send everywhere
nice vid bro. did the bigger wheels cause your odometer to read the wrong number of miles?
Paolo Enrique Javier ya so it's going to be off by like 3 or 4 mph when I'm going 100. I'm not too worried about it
Did you get any rubbing? I ended up getting a square setup too. Was to impatient to wait for an order and the deal was good.
lol you showed your license plate
BlackTech hahaha ya I forgot about hiding it like 1 min in 😂
lol oh shit i didnt know that you knew, thought i'd give you the heads up! Thanks for the video though! really helped me out
@@BestTechnoMixes people see his license plate in the street everyday it doesn't matter
@@marcom2092 then why was he so worried to block it in one shot but not the other?
i have oem (225 45r 17) , really want to switch to bigger tires just one size bigger than the original . Do you think i'll need offset ? Im not into coil overs and such. Just really want slightly grippier handling. although , this car is not a pocket rocket but the steering feel and the way it handles and the look of the car is beautiful. mine is halo white as well.
old vid. but we’re you using spacers with this setup? thinking about going the same route with stock height
This is what I want on my frs looks good
Sup bro just bought a white BRZ, this video is very helpful in seeing what this width/offset looks like on stock height. i myself am probably going to lower my car 1-1.5" front and rear and plan on going 18x8.5 +35 up front and 18x9.5 +35 in the rear. Just FYI, you may have learned since this video is a year old, but in cars lower off set pushes wheels out (poke fit) and higher offset tucks them in (tuck fit) so +40 offset is going to be more inside the well than a +35 which will poke out more. You should watch fitment industries videos very helpful. Anyway thanks for showing this. have you lowered your car yet?
Congrats on the new car and thank you for the notes. I just finished a bumper swap, but haven't lowered it yet. I'll end up going with the TRD springs which will only lower it 3/4 of an inch max.
hahaha i chuckled at your plate censoring attempt
Ya and then I totally forgot about it. #fail
Love this video man thanks a ton
hoang nguyen that's really nice of you, thank you
Car looks fine as is IMO.
You see those witness marks on the chin of your car?
Tells me you don't need to lower it.
Love the vid. No trouble while driving it no rubbing?
No problems at all, thanks for watching
What kinda rims are these??
@TravelingDirector, very useful video info and discussion. So to confirm, your new wheels compared to the stock setup, has filled up your wheel well by another 17mm (radius). And then you lowered it by an inch? Is it rubbing after the lowering? Are you on stock shocks?
I was researching a similar move with just bigger sidewall from 215/45 to 215/55 on stock 17”, but I feel the extra 21mm wheelwell space may rub when my stock shocks absorb a pothole.
Close, but the car has not been lowered, so what you see is the car on stock height, but with the larger rims
TravelingDirector. how's it been on gutters / pot holes?
Increasing total wheel diameter makes a negative scrub radius, which on a rwd car makes more tow-in that is supposed to increase stability at the expense of cornering. So you feeling any noticeable change in the handling/cornering? :)
But how does it feel to drive?
And ya its slow but this car isnt made to go fast. Its favorite environment is canyon runs. Handling is its secrete weapon
carson broadfoot Mine will be 560 hp to the wheel soon that’s A1
@@bubucachoo0882 thats the goal for mine
500Club my dude keep on that grind !!
Why dont you want to lower it? It will make your handling a lot better, its not just for looks. Best bang for your buck imo would be the tein flex z's. Looks fresh though bro👌🏼👍🏼🤙🏼
I thought I could get away with not lowering it so I didn't have to deal with all that, but I will need to eventually. Thanks for watching 😊
Great idea
thx very much for this video.....helped alot
jester cap right on man
oh man i always wondered about stock height with a 45 series tires and im happy to see that it fits very well, the gap is almost gone! that looks perfect in my opinion cuz the roads where i am are shitty. do u think u couldve fit a 235 or would there be clearance issues? thanks for the video!
remixjdm thanks for the support. Once I lower it, it should be perfect. I don't know about changing the first number (235). All I was asked was how thick I wanted the tires
remixjdm you can fit up to 245 with the stock suspension I believe
so after a few weeks, how is the ride? im about to pull the trigger on the same wheel and tire specs u got and was wondering if theres any rubbing or anything different from stock wheels/tires? appriciate it!
remixjdm Everything is good. There is no chance of rubbing. I still want to lower it an inch to get rid of the small amount of gap.
Thanks boss, wanted to see if an 8.5" with a +35 would fit without rubbing. Probably going to go with a 35 tire though, don't want the speed sensor going out of wack (got photo radar at intersections here.
Yeah when I'm going fast, the speedometer can be as much as 5 mph off
any reviews on the tires you have? everyone is is all about the super sports.
Marco Gonzalez I didn't specifically pick the tires. These are one of the better models they had in stock in my size. Seems to work alright I'm not sure if I can say yet if I recommend them or not but seems okay so far.
just wanted to ask they have a crazy good tread wear warranty on them. lol
Hai man.. very helpful video and great content. Just curious, does it have any rubbing isues when you full turn your steering? After awhile you using it, do you find any pros and cons that you can share. Really appreciate the reply. 🙏
Thanks for watching. No rubbing at all. I'm still looking at throwing on the TRD lowering springs, but I only have an inch or two of space and not sure I wanna risk it
@@TravelingDirector thanx alot..!!
I have a 17x8 and a 35 offset but for some reason mine are rubbing. Why is that ?
@@gustavoarrayga9178 mybe ur tire spec different..
@Uhasnols Jeneral idk cuz I checked the tire size and it’s running a 215/45/17
Hey man cool wheels? whats the name of those, where did you get them?
glosario7 thanks man. I bought them from a local guy. I think they are TrakLite . Not a super well known brand, but no problems so far and they look great
Hey man, does the bigger rims and tires cause any type of rubbing while turning?
Zack Simonich not at all. Perfect size, I might still lower it an inch
Is this with stock suspension?
Do you think it will rub with 18x9 lowered on two fingers?
I think it would be perfect if I lowered mine an inch as the fenders curve close to where the tire curves. If you go wider and they stick out, the finder will be above the tire (I don't know if that makes sense)
Where can I get those rims
Ice plate cover up the second time
Where can i buy rims?
Your fitment game is similar to you watch game bro. 😂
Is that stock suspension?
so no clearance issues? like entering driveways or no rubbing?
T.J5107 not a problem at all
how does it handle around corners compare to original oem tires and rim?
Mike Jones It's hard to tell to be honest. The tires are a little wider so there is a bit more grip.
Where did you buy that beautiful wheels?
Thanks, I got them from a local guy... I guess he sells a few brands. I think I paid $600 for all 4 (rims only).
Is it on stock suspension. And also what are the name of the wheels?
Psycho_Puncake totally stock suspension. I forget the name of the wheels
Ya totally stock suspension.
Dose your car sit alot higher with your new 18inch
Not a lot higher, but ya a lil
Would 19x8.5 be a good choice for stock suspension?
It depends on the tires. I did a little bit thicker tires, So if you did bigger rims, you'd have to go skinnier on the tires
@@TravelingDirector i got 18x8.5+35 bro did u have much wheel gap?
@@Joemama-re8sc the video shows the gap. Ain't too bad. I still haven't gotten lowering springs
what if lowered one and 18x8.5 rims with 225/40r18 tire?
GaL Gatab I tried to get bigger tires so that I didn't have to lower it. I will eventually have to lower it half an inch to an inch. The 40 tire is more common, so you won't have a problem.
dope car
Thanks man
no problem man 👍👍😁😎 +TravelingDirector
I ended up getting mine as 18×9.5 +35...... how am I gonna make that work?
Any look i just got some 18x9.5 +40 and they didnt fit, guessing i will need spacers what did you end up doing?
@@callum2903 awe man, yeah the +40 offset is what got you there but you'll be alright with the spacers... I ended up having to buy and install coilovers so that my original springs wouldn't rub on the inside of the rims. The width of the springs was too much and upgrading to coilovers really gave me that clearance. No rubbing and no issues 👌🏼I also had to buy camber bolts for the front because of the coilovers. Without the camber bolts, I had too much positive camber which made the tires go inward like a V in the front. Got it aligned after and I was good to go 100%
all around 18×9.5 +35... as for tire size, I got 245/35 R18. A tiny bit stretched when they put them on but it looks good
@@PrimeRunner_1 Thanks for the quick reply man, ill start off with some 15 or 20mm spacers and eventually move onto some coils.
Why do people cover their license plate. Like you can’t get any info from that
With just a little bit of information, people can do just about anything. The most common thing I've seen... people make a license plate for the same type of car, same year color etc. And then go do dumb shit
@@TravelingDirector yea but they can’t find where you live with a license plate only the state obviously. Never heard of someone doing that but I can be wrong
@@NE0NPINK2 yeah and then besides that, and not that I do it, people that like drag race or street race or do s*** like that and then put it on UA-cam, cops can obviously look up the license plate. But I don't do anything dumb since getting out of prison
Stock suspension?
Yea
5/5
this is a bit helpful but I'm kinda getting a D9R18x9.5 with +23 offset on stock suspension for now and was wondering if the wheels are gonna poke out too much and look ridiculous?
Give it a shot. I'm curious to see what it looks like and if it rubs.
I'm sure you know by now, but you don't want to go any lower than 35 offset.. 23 is going to stick out a lot.
@@maxboost81 Good catch, I didn't way attention to his post, ya man +23 is wayyyyyyy off!
What size are the rims and tires?🔥
Hey bud, it's in the description
Can you do 18x8 on a stock frs?
Yes. Those are not as wide as mine and mine don't have any problems at all.
The offset is 35mm you think it fine? Will it be problem for my fitment on the frs?
