Can I get some feedback on my latest project? A wheel fitment calculator

[PerilousActs]

Hey guys!

I just got done launching my new website FitMyWheels - Wheel fitment, offset, and tire stretch calculator (http://www.fitmywheels.com). Can you guys play around with it a bit and see if everything is working okay and if you see any errors in the calculations it is providing? Also, any suggestions or feature requests?

I got sick of people trying to discuss tire size, stretch, and fitment without being able to visualize it. So, the site generates an image which can be shared on forums to aid in discussion or bragging I guess. I know there are a few other fit calculators out there, but my goal is to provide the easiest one to use and provide features people want as a community.

If you would like to help get the word out about it, please like the facebook page too: https://www.facebook.com/FitMyWheels

Here's an example image it makes:

the idea is cool but I guess there are some factors that are an issue, no camber, caster, toe (dunno if that stuff affects shock clearance) and what car front or rear is it calculating for, etc, etc,etc

u need to show which side is the inside

like:
http://www.willtheyfit.com/wheelimage.php?tyrediameter=645.2&tyrewidth=235&tyrecirc=2026.95557778&wheelwidth=266.7&wheeldia=457.2&offset=20&poke=113.35&inset=153.35&aspect=40&tyrediameter2=637.2&tyrewidth2=225&tyrecirc2=2001.82283658&wheelwidth2=254&wheeldia2=457.2&offset2=15&poke2=112&inset2=142&aspect2=40

Willthey.com is like almost 100% accurate all the time when I've used it

Old New
Diameter 645.2mm 637.2mm
Circumference 2027mm 2001.8mm
Poke 113.4mm 112mm
Inset 153.4mm 142mm
Speedo error 0% 1.26%
Reading at 30mph 30.38mph
Reading at 60mph 60mph 60.75mph
Ride height gain 0mm -4mm
Arch gap loss 0mm -4mm

and yours is like identical so I'd say you did a good job man

It'd also be nice to show the centerline of the wheel where it meets the hub.

This is something I've been wanting to add. Camber could have an affect on clearance on some suspension setups. Not usually macpherson (except with fender for example), but solid axles/beams like on my xB.

What I've been toying with doing, is allowing you to select the type of suspension and provide a drop down of car types. The car type would allow me to let everyone do accurate fender clearance calculations. I would just have to build the list of measurements up over time or have people submit them.

What do you mean by this?

It'd also be nice to show the centerline of the wheel where it meets the hub.

This is something I've been wanting to add as well. I'm just trying to think of an effective way to implement it. Perhaps a faded vertical lie going through the hub?

RIMTUCK.com - Wheel Fitment Database (http://www.rimtuck.com)

similar to this no? but i like how you add an image

[PerilousActs]

Sort of.

Rim tuck provides a database of a fitment installed on a car type and pics. I just provide calculations. I've thought of adding the database of fitment x on car y like rimtuck does, but rimtuck is an awesome resource so not sure if I will just yet.

[PerilousActs]

Updated the site! It now supports camber on each tire. This will allow you guys to get a finer tune on the potential setup you're looking at doing. If you have any suggestions, please let me know.

Its called wingeo3, it lets you do pretty much anything. (except add fenders)

[humilde_s13]

i see the best fitment calculator about to be.

[PerilousActs]

Thanks, man!

Next update should make it function on mobile devices!

[humilde_s13]

Its kool I was messing with it in my phone, but for some reason my setup was overlapping the coilovers unless was doing it wrong, in my car actually clears.

Bumping this up! The release number 2 has just gone live. I have added user accounts and a fitment database. Please let me know if you guys have issues. Please add your cars. Looking to build up a database to help everyone in the community! :) http://fitmywheels.com/fitmentdb
