Wide rear wheel question. Will it fit.


Recommended Posts

Posted

So just sold my 18" lmgt4's

Front 8.5x18 rears 9.5x18.

I liked the stance but want to go a bit more of a dish/ wide look.

Options

18" rota gtr-d 12" back with et 20. 10" fronts.

Or

19" rota gtr. 10" back 9.5" fronts.

 

Question is am I going to get the 12" rears under without running camber and silly stretch. My arches can be rolled no problem.

Or shall I play it safe with the 19" gtrs.

Anyone running 12" wide rears or the equivalent ?

I'm running 19" 9.5 et20 all round I wouldn't go out anymore on the front as it already pokes out a bit. My arches are pulled and rolled. I'd go with the 19's especially if you have to fit through any tight gaps.

The 12" will be a bit of a squeeze, I'm sure it's do-able, but I would go to the hassle for 18" rims. Get the 19's, much better looking and at 19x9.5/10.5 et20 the stance will be perfect.

Caroline runs 11's on the rear on 285's, this is on standard suspension with no rubbing, I believe Keyser runs 11.5's but I don't know what his setup is.

im running a18x 9.5 et20 front with a 265/35 tyre on the front with no issues. 10j with a 265 should fit fine. 12's on the back might be ok with a 0 offset. 10j et20 come very close to the strut so i'd play safe and get the arches rolled for the rears.

i no its lowered but these are

 

19x9.5 et20 front

19x10.5 et 20 rear they fit the arches nice without sticking out the gtr-d unless slammed to get excessive camber and stretch dont fit so well 12" back with et 20

I have been thinking about running GTR-D's in a12" rear but as Stevo D said it will be a squeeze and you will have to run really stretched tyres and camber and rolled and maybe pulled arches, unless you can find over fenders but I dout you will want to use them. The safe option which still looks awsome is 19"x 9.5" front and 19"x10.5" rear both ET 20.
