I put those on my car the other day, they were fine but wouldn't clear my brembo's, otherwise I would have bought them!

I like both of those, especially the last pair. You may need to get some spacers for the rear wheels though.

Brad - Will these fit our cars? How wide can we go with the width?

bradc

Don - they should fit fine with 225 or 235/40/18 tyres, you will need to roll the guards though at the back, and you may have an issue with the rear suspension arch as well. I would check out Carstens car and see how much clearance he has between his rear suspension and his wheel. You're going to need an extra 6.5mm of room at the back between the wheel and the suspension.

they wont fit, there too wide.

i only have a couple mm clearance

bradc
25-06-2007, 08:17 AM
Check out my gallery for how much clearance there is between 17x9.5" wheels with a 35mm offset, now imagine that corner point of the wheel moved up by 12.5mm and away from the suspension by 6.25mm - it almost certainly won't work!

Ok , no worries, sucks how most of the wide rims I like wont fit our cars!!
