Foose Nitrous?
I am looking at the Foose Nitrous wheels. Is 34mm (front) and 40mm (rear) the right offset to keep the wheels inside the fender? I am looking at 20x8.5 & 20x10. What are the widest tire sizes that will fit? Does anybody have any pics that can help me out?
Thanks

JONNYBOY7701,
i could be mistaken, but in your last picture on your post, i can see the tread pattern of your front and rear wheels...
now correct me if im wrong, but it looks like your tires are flipped the wrong way.....
i mean your tires need to be dismounted, flipped 180 degrees, and then mounted again so the tread pattern can be rotating in the proper direction.....
its not good for the tire to be rotating in the opposite direction than it is supposed to be...they are not bi-directional....
here is the pic of your car...notice the tread pattern.....the thread pattern is supposed to be pointing down in the direction of the rotation....
here is the pic of your tire and the proper way is it supposed to be mounted....
sry for hijacking this thread but its important that it be corrected if its in fact mounted wrong...

hey i just figured something out lol....
im an idiot for not thinking of this before....
you dont need to dismount and remount the tires....
if the drivers side wheels are the same way, just change the drivers side wheels to the passenger side and vice versa.....
this will fix everything and put the tread pattern where it needs to be....
