    So the Velgen 22's will rub on H&R springs?

    The specs are what they are. Whoever you talked to an element, just didn’t know what the **** they were talking about. The Velgen wheels you bought are the exact same specs.

    One thing - I ended up buying the Velgen VF9's because Element sales rep told me those wheels @ 22/10.5 - 30mm offset - would rub with 305/40R22 tires so I passed on them because they said they wouldn't take them back if there were rubbing issues ... Velgen guaranteed no rubbing as long as the...

    “What works for you”. Again a belittling comment implying your opinion on sway bars is the best opinion.. I was curious when I said something else about a differing in opinion if you’d be able to respond without throwing a little jab in there.. proving my point.. Regardless, when I had my rear...

    I didn’t test the bar settings for what “works” for you. I tested them at the ragged edge of under and oversteer…my statement stands and has been verified by many others. Your last statement that wheel width not needing to be listed is wrong also. As the other poster stated…offset without wheel...

    I appreciate the input. And yes, that is one thing I forgot to respond to in the last message. For whatever reason, my Sport mode steering feel is SIGNIFICANTLY lighter than my normal mode, which just feels excessively heavy. I thought that seemed a little backwards. I mean I don’t want my sport...

    Man…when people have their mind made up I say let em have at it. It’s not worth the effort.

    Offset is absolutly irrelevant without knowing wheel width. A +30 10.5” wheel is going to be absolutely different than a +30 9” wheel for example. I am not arguing with that you want, I am just pointing out the facts of the matter, As far as steering lightness, this is where I think you are...

    Toyo Proxes ST3 reviews?

    Offset is not irrelevant if you know the size of the tire but not the wheel. The tread width of the tire does not change with wheel width change. If we’re comparing two different tire sizes, listing offset still adds relevant information… Also we’re getting off topic here. I’ve heard people on...

    I know that offset is a huge factor in wheel fitment, but without knowing the width of the wheel, offset is irrelevant because there is not enough info. You are going to get the exact opposite performance differences that you described, but you have to keep in mind any difference would be so...

    Y’all are wearing me out. Lol. I appreciate the input though haha. Multiple things to respond to here. Maybe a new thread is needed so we can get more chime in from the 305/40r22 crowd. I’ve seen multiple people on the Facebook forums claiming they’re running this without issue, which has been...

    Your logic doesn’t make since to me. If a 295/45 felt too heavy for you, why do you think a taller, wider tire will fix that. And what do you mean by the car and steering didn’t like it? Also, what performance gain do you expect from a taller tire. It will actually make you slower because the...

    I appreciate your willingness to help someone else to prevent a costly problem, but I do know how to read wheels and tire specs. I’m sure you understand, but for anyone else who is not following along properly, a 10mm (.4in) increase in diameter means a 5mm increase on any side around the hub. A...

    You need to learn how to read wheel width and offset and also tire sizes. A 305/50/20 is .4” taller than a 305/40/22, not 5mm. The 20 is 32” tall and will very likely rub at full lock on the fender liner. There’s no room behind the liner to push it back and trimming it makes no sense at all…why...

    Toyo Proxes ST3 reviews?

    A 305/40r22 rubs at mid to full lock on the fender liner, and if you’re lowered, will rub everywhere when going over bumps. 305/50r20, being bigger, would just rub more. You wouldn’t have trouble with the strut with the normal 20x10.5 +30 wheel setup, but you’d rub the wheel liner everywhere...

    Yeah? Rub what though? If some people are fitting 305/40r22 on their cars then 305/50r20 isn’t really that different, only a 5mm extension in any direction. I can tack back the wheel well liner a bit if needed. I’ve seen some people running large wheels and tires with a zero offset. I just want...

    A 305/50r20 would guaranteed rub a lot.

    How are those things fitting? I’m really wanting to put on some 305/50r20s (only 10mm diameter bigger than yours, which only places it 5mm closer to anything) but not sure they’ll fit. What’s your offset and wheel width, and do you think you have more than 5mm of space between them and the...
