Ian Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 Ian how are you going to get even lower offset? Sure it will rub? You getting ready to run stupidly high camber and wear your tyres out nice and quick? Yes I only use the car on the weekend so i'm not too bothered by tyre useage If needed I can always raise the car a bit aswell ....and drives like an old lady..... Quote
Chris`I Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 My front wheels are 9" wide ET20, and they are close to rubbing as it is. Yours are half inch wider and more aggressive offset. Also they wont look staggered still, your tyres will just be different shapes at the sidewalls... Look forward to seeing the pics once they are fitted though, good luck! You might want some small spacers on the rear to get them to match up more with the fronts. I have to agree. Adrians are about as aggressive as you can go in that size. Any more and you will need to run a lot of camber to get them in the arches. Quote

Chris`I Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 There are a few people on here running +17 with a 9.5" front But what camber I guess different wheel/tyre combos will allow you slight room for manouver, but I certainly wouldnt be comfortable to run anything more aggressive than Adrians, as I have seen them on the ramp and on the road and they are spot on IMO (of course its all a matter of opinion) Quote

Adriank Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 Indeed Ian, but the front is going to look a LOT more aggressive than the rears, due to them being the same size... The rears needed to be 10.5 if the fronts are 9.5 IMO. Quote
nrenz123 Posted June 3, 2009 Author Posted June 3, 2009 Wheels and tyres should be arriving tomorrow, it will take a few trips to get the lot to the tyre fitters, but once its all done i'll take some pics Quote
nrenz123 Posted June 4, 2009 Author Posted June 4, 2009 Well the wheels have arrived and me likey, me likey a lot! just waiting for the tyres to get delivered now and hopefully find somewhere to fit them. Quote
nrenz123 Posted June 4, 2009 Author Posted June 4, 2009 Grrr, apparently they havent got time to deliver them today s its going to be tomorrow... cant say im best pleased! Quote

nrenz123 Posted June 15, 2009 Author Posted June 15, 2009 The rear's have a bit of camber on them which im guessing is due to the offset but other than that they are spot on Quote
TimGSXR Posted June 15, 2009 Posted June 15, 2009 Oooh now i'm tempted, how much? and where from? Quote
nrenz123 Posted June 15, 2009 Author Posted June 15, 2009 Got them from envy, they were £1350 with tyres mate Quote
