MWTech Posted August 1, 2012 Posted August 1, 2012 yeah, absolutely, if i had no large stretch the tyres would easily hit arches. i think normal tyre size for a 12 inch wide would be 315 or thereabouts. Quote
ben@RARE RIMS Posted August 1, 2012 Posted August 1, 2012 With 18" Rota wheels generally you have a choice: 18x8.5" = Flat Spokes 18x9"/9.5"/10" = Concave spokes The offset has no effect on the spokes Quote
The Chubby Ninja Posted August 1, 2012 Author Posted August 1, 2012 By concave do you mean deep dish type wheels? Quote
ben@RARE RIMS Posted August 1, 2012 Posted August 1, 2012 Flat 18x8.5: Concave 18x9.5: Dished 19x10.5: Quote
The Chubby Ninja Posted August 1, 2012 Author Posted August 1, 2012 Aaahhh i cant make up my mind. I like the deep dish but i also like the concave ones. A bit more research into this is in order i think. Thanks alot for the help and pics guys its much appreciated and ive learned some new things aswell. Quote
SamBlueGT Posted January 11, 2017 Posted January 11, 2017 (edited) I've just put on Rota GTR and GTR-D in 18x8.5 ET30 front and 18x9.5 ET25 rear, with stock sized tyres. I decided I didn't want too much fitment agression. My suspension is also standard - and so it looks like this (please excuse the un-staged nature of the photos ) Personally, I like the 18" look over 19 - I like a bit of arch room as the tight or over cambered look makes me cringe a bit. I'm really happy with these wheels - just what I wanted. Big thanks to Tarmac for the supply. Great idea of his to go for a GTR/GTR-D combo instead of same both ends. Did these require spacers? Cheers Edited January 11, 2017 by SamBlueGT Quote

ChrisB Posted January 11, 2017 Posted January 11, 2017 (edited) Nope no spacers Edit: After those pictures were taken, I did subsequently go up to 275/40 245/40 tyres and lowered it a bit to improve things (now less gappy).. along with the other go-faster mods.. Good wheels, but polished do need care as road grit quickly ruins the laquer over time. Edited January 11, 2017 by ChrisB Quote
