wider rims/tires on cube???

[BoxiePoser]

but this time im looking for 9" wide with (?) offset so it will not stick outta fender too much(don't mind if it sticks out a little).

[BoxiePoser]

Depends always on how low the cube is. But compared to the oem wheel if you're on stock height, it will poke by 7cm or nearly 3 inch.

btw, what you mean by how low car sits? what how much rim sticking out of fender has to do with how low car sits??

The 15x9 +10 should stick out 1 inch more out of the fender compared to the 15x8 XXR you had.

When you lower a car, since the spring are shorter in length, you'll make the shock itself lose traveling it had. By the same time, your changing the suspension geometry. By affecting that geometry, the wheels will sunken into the fender more. The more you lower the more they will sunken and at some point, you'll get negative camber.

So for example, a 15x9+10 will poke more on oem height than the same wheel with a 1'' drop.

Why don't you go with a 16'' or even a 17'' wheel? It will be easier to get a tire to stretch on theses size.
Look at this link, there a huge collection of pictures of stretched tires on many size.

Plus, a bigger size in wheels, with stretched tires, you'll have less of the ''boat'' feeling when taking curves. Steering respond is better too.

I think that rim will look good on my cube...but that rim don't come in 16s or bigger.

I'm lowering the car with tiens springs n might run 3deg negative camber.

So how much will that rim stick outta fender with above setting?

[D3stro]

Tein coil aren't the one that lowered the most out there...even with these you won't get neg camber, you'll nearly remain in factory setting when you'll get out for alignment....

You want neg camber at the point you're so goddamn low you need to get thoses wheels inside the fender to be flush.
Lowered on the Tein with neg camber it's gonna be ugly.On Tein coil you won't be even close to flush.

The 15x9 +10 might poke just a little bit less than oem height like I stated above or compared to what you had. There won't be that much of a difference.

D3stro, can you recommend me any specific brand to achieve good looks or stance??

I want to lower car with lowering springs and 3 or 5 Neg camber with that rim.

[BoxiePoser]

this is how much my previous rim sticked out. 16x8 with 0 offset.
