pretty much you would select the kind of car you have then it inputs stock wheel specs ,
and in the second option you put the wheel specs of the wheel your puting on and it tells you clearance and how far it will stick out from car , its pretty cool

i would def go with weld i here while in dirft it locks up alot better


it stays locked regardless , welded is a poor mans version of a 2way and will always be locked no questions asked

its personal prefrence , i like vlsd and 2 way

vlsd blow donkey nuts and 2ways as well... now you can find that even big names still use welded diffs.. yeah it sucks sometimes for daily driving.. well not really, just get one...

If the wobble bothers you then get hub centric spacers. No extended wheel studs are not dangerous, good enough for race cars good enough for me. If no hub centric hub to begin with the no worries.

seriously i have 17x9 +17 on front with 15mm spacer non hubcentric but its a rotor we cut the hat off with nismo 60mm wheel studs... then for the rear i have 17x9 +17 offset with powered by max 30mm rear spacers and my ride is solid as fuck.. lasted two drift events so far...

Yeah every car that I've had , I've put spacers and extended studs on. Whenever my hubs were hub centric and the spacers were not... it shook like a raped monkey at 55 then stopped. I think ima try the rotor spacers though, ha practically free.

rotor spacers?? do yall have studs or lugbolts? and are you guys hubcentric.. kinda want to see how much different a 240 is to an e30 suspension and wheelwise.

i use nismo 60mm wheel studs.. and we cut the hat off of a 07 altima rotor i got from work... and bam instant spacer... the spacer fits perfect as its a rotor...

fuck wheel calculators. just throw the widest/lowest offset wheels you can find on the car and then stuff em under 50mm fenders. adjust camber accordingly lol
