The 43mm will fit nicely in the rear. The fronts should work too. A 275 tire might look a bit narrow on a 10.5 wheel. I have a friend running a 40mm square 20x10 setup on his 05. On the front he is running a 285 tire and it looks good.

yup...will be close in the rear, fronts will be super close depending on the other parts you have- you'll probably need slotted strut mounting holes, camber plates, and some endlink/endlink stud mods to make it fit well

I think you will be ok. I don't know about the springs. I am running K springs and have a 305/35/20 mounted on a 40mm 10.5 wheel. I do get a bit of rubbing but the 305 is a MT DR and is a lot narrower than most 295s so it might be close. Good luck!

295 on a 10.5 with a +43 sounds really close up front. Probably going to be a try it and see situation. The rear should be fine.

ya I meant the rear too. He did mention staggered so I think the 10.5 is for the rear only

he wants to run a square setup. If you are running a 10.5 +40 with a 305 and he wants a 275 with +43 then he should definitely be okay in the rear, and I honestly think he should be fine in the front with some negative camber.

This is the post I was referring to. I think he is asking about a 295 in the rear and a 275 in the front still.

my plan was to run 275/35/20 on eurotek 03 10.5 on front and rear with 43mm but if it's not possible I will stay with 9in front and 10.5 on the rear.I no I saw someone running xxr521 in 20 x 10.5 on all four but they are in 30mm offset and the eurotek looks very similar but with less agressive offset.they got it in 43,40,35,30,25,20,15.

My concern was more for the inside.With 43mm offset
I no the rims will be more
inside the fenders so could it touch something when I'm gone a turn.

use a measuring tape against what you have now.

The 10.5 +43 vs what I run (9.5 +15 front). my wheel sticks out about 15mm more than the 10.5 will. I also have plenty of room to run a wider tire on the outside. Like a few have said the inner position is what you need to look at. You simply need to do some math or better yet google and take advantge of the many wheel fitment calculators out there.

Im running XXR 521s 18x10 +25 squared with 275/40/18 tires. There is some poke but I'm on springs and there are no clearance issues so it doesn't bother me. Plus, I like the meaty fitment look! :boobies:

After looking alot of wheels I think my favorite are the xxr521 but are they gone a rub with 275/35/20.
