The 9.5 +38 will sit way too far inside the guards (~15mm more so that the 10+30). Edited 15/10/11 12:44 PM by winstor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Worm A much better forum Silver Donating Members 3,808 Member For: 16y 4m 18d Gender: Male Location: Victoria Posted 16/10/11 12:23 AM Share Posted 16/10/11 12:23 AM I think you'll need to run a spacer on the front... You'd want 20x8.5 with +20 or 25 front and 20x10.5 with +18... That's look awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 9.5 +38 will sit way too far inside the guards (~15mm more so that the 10+30).I think spacers may be illegal/unroadworthy and void insurance, you'd be better off just getting the right offset from the get go imo.

Never had any say Panda I <3 Floods Silver Donating Members 11,198 Member For: 13y 4m 10d Gender: Male Location: South West QLD Posted 16/10/11 06:19 AM Share Posted 16/10/11 06:19 AM Bad spacers can cause vibrations that will shear your wheel studs also.. Happened on my WRX and a mates SS.. Nothing worse then being out in the middle of nowhere hoping your wheel won't fall off!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BPRacing Member 5 Member For: 16y 4m 8d Gender: Male Location: Geelong Posted 17/10/11 07:38 AM Share Posted 17/10/11 07:38 AM (edited) thanks for your commentsTo Put spanner in the works the car has 6Pot Brembos on front and may need clearance.I don't want to run spacers, as I plan on using the car for the odd track day. Plus Spacers are illegal in Vic for road use.However I have use wheel adaptors with studs in past without any issues.Can anyone tell me if the sedan and ute are using the same or different offsets when large rims are fitted. ?I had the thought the ute could go a little larger on the rim size over the sedan.?Keep in mind my FG is a UTE.!Hi guysI'm considering to purchase a set of Enkei GTC01 for my FPV GS Ute but confused about offsets and which will fit the best.http://enkei.com/gtc01.htmlEnkei make the rim in the below format20x 8.5 40+20x 9.5 38+20x10 30+20x10.5 18+I would like to run 245 Rubber on the front and 285 or 295 on rear.Does anyone have rims fitted to FG ute in the same combo and info about offsets.Your comments would be apreciated.Regards MattBPRacing Edited 17/10/11 07:40 AM by BPRacing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mines 20x10 +40 with 275's and I think his was 19x9.5 +40 with 285's. He can go allot lower then mine as the guards fit over the tyres where as mine are in line with them. Still fark all clearance on both cars but. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
