Wheel Advice needed

Recommended Posts

I'm thinking of buying these (AXE EX20)

 

http://www.rimstyle.com/alloywheels/selection/?car_model_id=1743&year=2005&dia=20

 

With a 10.5 rear and 8.5 front

 

The Front wheels come with a 20mm spacer

 

offsets are 45 et front

and 25 et on the rear

 

Tyres will be 20 x 245 x 35 fronts and 275 x 35 rears.

 

My suspension is bog standard at the moment and may lower it depending on the outcome of this fitment.

 

I need you wheel gurus on here to tell me if they will be a decent fit. Please dont debate whether or not spacers are bad or good etc as I have absolutely no problem having them on the car if its helps with the fitment.

 

So, with the above info, will they rub the arches?? and if possible how much will they stick out?

 

any guidance here will be very help full.

 

thanks

I'm no wheel guru myself but this should help give you some idea - hopefully I filled in the information correctly for you!

 

Front compared to a stock set up but including your 20mm spacer supplied:

http://www.willtheyf...t2=25#content��

"Compared to your existing wheel, this new wheel will have an inner rim which is 28.4mm further away from the suspension strut.The outer rim will poke out 15.7mm more than before."

 

And rears, compared to stock set up:

http://www.willtheyf...set2=25#content

"Compared to your existing wheel, this new wheel will have an inner rim which is 1.3mm closer to the suspension strut. The outer rim will poke out 11.4mm more than before."

 

So doubt you'll have any rubbing issues while the car has stock suspension.

Not sure about aftermarket stuff as it varies slightly, also looks like going up to 20" with those tires could knock your speedo out a bit too.
