10.5's & lowered?

[SanchezLNR]

Just bought an '09 GT500, if I widen the wheels to 10.5 how far can I lower the car? And will I need wheels spacers, extended lug bolts or any kind of suspension mods? I plan on needing alot of traction & I would like a really aggressive stance, thanks

I think there are a few ppl with 10.5's and 11's out there w/o any modification on the prokit, now sportlines... I don't know how much room is under there. I have some ccw 19x11's with 295 ps2's on the rear. I'll take some pictures to show the room. No sure of the comparison b/w my ccw and stocker backspacings and offsets.

Same here, had 18x11's on the rear with pro's no issues.

10.5's+315/35-18's and FRPP springs - no issues.

I have coilovers on my car and had the rears BOTTOMED OUT on them with the tires being flush with the fender and I had no issues running my 19x11s in the rear. No rubbing at all so you shouldn't have any issues with 10.5s.

What size tire did you run on the wheel?

What size tire did you run on the wheel?

305/35/18 if I still had them I would go with the 305/45/18 had more than enough room. The 35's are just a hair to short compared to what I had up front.

Thanks for the help guys, that's just what I wanted to hear!
11?! That's even better!

20x11 w/315-35-20 Nitto NT05R's w/FRPP springs and no problem here

My 19x11's fit perfectly on frpp springs, and I'm about to put the eibach coilovers on it and lower it some more

blueovalkid - what's the offset on the rear? Sick looking ride, btw.

Thx man.
The rears are CS66 20x10 that i had Weldcraft widen to a 11". The numbers on the CS wheels site says +45 on the offset and 7.27 on the backspacing which I guess would be around 8.20 now. You lose about 1/8 off an inch when they cut ur wheels in half to add the spacer so they are actually a 20x10 7/8
