135 EC7

Enfiftyfore · 11-03-2015, 03:32 PM

I have some APEX EC7's which are:
18x8.5 ET45
18X9.5 ET58

I want to run 235/40 265/35 Nitto NT05. Will I need camber plates? I plan on getting the M3 control arms later on.

Should fit without rubbing. AFAIK M3 control arms won't help on clearance as they simply push the bottom out

I agree with dbronnik. I run EC-7s as well with 235/40 and 275/35 Pilot Sport AS3s with no issues.

Ec7 PSS in those sizes rubbed for me.

Damn it. Well did you run spacer or camber plates for the rub?

ET45 + 235/40 tire would rub against the strut rather the fender in the front. If you do rub against your strut you'd probably need ~5-10mm spacer. (someone correct me if I'm wrong

)
