Need help with wide tires. Wheel spacer advice.
 
Hi I recently bought new tires. And I thought 110 width in the rear would fit. Coming from 106 width that fit. I only bought this because they were discounted. 110 width definitely rubs the fender wall. Has anyone run 110 and if so what size wheel spacer did you get and where did you buy your spacers.

Thanks in advance.

110?

Yah my previous tire size in the rear was.

315/35R20 106W

New tires size.

315/35R20 110W

It's the width that killed me.

The 106 &110 are load ratings.

315 is width.

Did you mount the new tires on different wheels with an offset change?

Yep, the only way you would have rubbing now if you didn't before... is if you changed wheels.

Did you significantly lower the X?

Oh wtf 110 (W) isn't width. I feel dumb now.

I lowered the X with lowering links. But why the hell does these wheels look so much more beefier.

I went from these rims

There was really no change in size but the "110W from 106W".

Dang I don't even remember what the offset was on the older rims.
I was told the Style 168 offset is +45 rear.

EDITED:

Oh shit yeah the older rims says +37 offset compared to NEW +45 offset.

Style 168 is +45 FRONT, and +30 rear. So your hub is moved 15mm closer to the centerline of the wheel. So your tires stick out +/- 15mm more than they did before.

Edit: They should still fit fine without rubbing just like the style 214's. Did you have the 20x10 or 20x11 in the rear with the 214's?

Oh what the hell. I am so boggled about this.

9.5 in the front. 10.5 in the rear.

Hmm I will have time more time this weekend. Maybe I was rushing the work and over looked something. But shieet I'm only putting on rims. I will be back with my findings.
