He runs 20 x 10 with +42 and the rim is 2 mm from the trailing arm and we had to roll the guards ( a small amount). These rims being 9.5 inch and +36 there is more than 10mm of inside clearance. For a BA BF they should have been +42, +45 or at least +40. Then there would have been no need to roll the guards. Anyrate here is a few pics.

I like very much..."9.5 +30 seems to be the best fitment for the rears. Sits flush with the gaurds".+30 may suit a FG but Im talking about BA BF. I bought the 9.5 inch rims for the extra grip, I want them to fit and not rub on the guard.I dont care have TUFF it looks. 99% of the mods I do are for function - Not "look at me , look at me".

Try 18's if you want function champ... An extra inch in width isn't gonna make much difference when you have no side wall flex...I noticed they are $1490 in 20's for a set in silver or dark grey... Anyone know if they are bringing out wider ones in 19's... That'd be mint! Edited 17/10/10 04:35 AM by Dillz Overquote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have 19s with a 9.5 rear if they made them. If you think "Im look at me" search the forums and you wont find posts with me showing the lastest bling I have bought for my car or even photos of my car.

Ride height looks just about perfectAlso have you had a chance to drive on them yet? How is the grip compared to 235/245's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
