New Titan +53 offset

[FloArm]

Was browsing the FL5 forums and stumbled across this. Obviously, a lot of us want to keep the driving dynamics as close to stock as possible. This is a 7mm offset diff vs stock and at a good price. Pretty impossible to find anything close to that 60mm offset. Figured I’d share, not sure how much inventory is left. I just ordered. Looks like it’ll ship around April/may, just in time for summer fun.

Apex has a +58 wheel as well. It costs more than Titan but for those wanting to keep offset near stock it's an option.

I'll take the handling trade off of a +45 offset. 15mm is a pretty small amount. I wonder what the degredation in handling truly is at say 85 or 90% of the car's max performance. I honestly don't think I could tell as far as lateral cornering, braking, straight line acceleration, etc. Maybe torque steer is more noticeable? The extra 15mm of track width improves asthetics so much. I was the lucky purchaser of NSXavier's Apex rims. getting them mounted up next week. They are oem size, 19 x 9.5. Once the oem tires wear out I'll probably look for a 275/30 tire to replace them.

I doubt there is any noticeable diff majority of the time. But there would have to be some increased torque steer as the pivot point on the tire is no longer near center.

Too bad none of these new options are available in 19s T_T

Came here to say this. I like the Apex VS-5RS for 19s but they are +45. Apex also offers the EC-7 in +58, but they're flow-formed, not forged, and only in 18s (I think).

Not that flow-formed is bad, but I think many of us would prefer forged.

When I get an extra $7000 or so I'll explore custom offsets from some of the top tier Japanese manufacturers.

You guys and your tiny wheels.

When are you getting 22s?!

Sticking 19s unless I see decent set of 20s

Same here, saving up for set of Works. 19x10 +50-54.

Ran 18x9 +50 Weds on my FK8 (stock is 20x8.5 +60), did not notice any extra torque steer. Street, track, autocross.

"Compared to your existing wheel, this new wheel will have an inner rim which is 2.6mm further away from the suspension strut. The outer rim will poke out 15.4mm more than before."
