Thanks everyone for the info on the 315 widths. My plan was to crack my Vossens and put wider inner barrel to accept 12 inch wheels on the back, but looks like 11.5 is about it without mini tubbing my rear. If I did mini-tub also wasnt sure if I wanted to go straight axle or keep the independent suspension. Cost wise, alot cheaper to go with 315 20x11.5 vs tubbing the car for the extra .5 inches. Not willing to address going with spacers and move the back wheel to the front and then stretching the stock back wheels to 20x11.5. (Actually not sure if anyone does that kind of work on island)
When I installed my current custom Vossen Forged 3 piece wheel, I also had tire rub (actually the inner rubber valve) that was hitting the e-brake. Ended up having to zip tie the e-brake away from the wheel.
Anyways, just checking around during my doctors appointment and found a wheel and tire shop that can crack open a 3 piece forged rims by Resturant Row. Wished I knew this 6 months ago when I hit a curb and had to replace my chromed lip. Couldnt locate anyone on island and had to send the whole wheel to Florida (Vossen shop) to have them crack it open and replace the lip.
Still have some wear left on the tires, so I have this on hold until time to replace the tires. Not sure if I am going with Pirelli Tires
or Nitto's yet. I know this place does have Pirelli so have that option.
Thanks for all the info. Cant wait to put some extra rubber on the back!
