Fg 20X10 Staggered Wheels

Heres my contribution, not 20,s but it will give you an idea how easily the FG's cavernous guards just swallow wheels.

They're 19x9.5 & 8.5.. just had them custom made and not too sure on the offsets. Id say the fronts are standard fare with the rears maybe being +36???

I do know that the rears are flush, if not just alittle proud of the guard.

Will lower 1st then pick the rubber to suite

to reply to your profile comment,

specs are 19x10 +10 and 19x10.5 +23the fronts fit great with 245/40/R19 tyres with rolled guards, but I have a lot of camber.

the rears stick out the guards as I dont have camber kit in the rear yet.

honestly I suggest you DON'T use my wheel specs, as there is a large chance it isnt the look you will want or are chasing.

Holy f*ck, poke much? that's 20mm further out than my fitment you crazy bastard lol

Sorry, thought I hit edit for my post above

ok here are the slightly silly width photos.

front: 19x10 +10

im using a 245/40/R19 for more ground clearance (im on my 4th gearbox mount haha) and I needed to roll guards, even with -2.5 degrees of camber.

with a 245/35 it's sidewall is 13mm lower, so it probably would clear the guards no issues.

rear: 19x10.5 +23

using a 245/35/R19 tyre at the moment on the rear due to wanting to kill the last few pairs of my 35 profiles before I switch to 40 profile on the rear.

at the moment there is no/little camber in the rear, and its a tad high, but camber and rear height are getting sorted out in the coming weeks so hopefully ill be able to confirm if the 10.5s can actually fit in the guards with some camber.

Tocchi.. we,d talked about getting you my 3" inch lips.. but youve infected my head so I may just hold onto them for future craziness

Cheers mate

Heres what a 40 profile 245x 19 would look like insted of the usual 35..

It does change the whole "look" of the wheel

Its just a worn secondhand tyre I managed to get to try before purchasing new tyres

What does everyone think?? Opinions would be great

Oh.. it will be lowered..eventually

Thanks

Tocchi that is one tough car.

haha it's like that Jimmi.

I run the 40 profile, as it gives an optical illusion, the car is actually higher, thus more ground clearance, but it tucks more tyre than a 35 profile (due to being more sidewall than a 35) so the car still looks low.

means less chance of tyre bead popping off, and gives a slighty better ride.

plus Potenza RE050A's are easy to find cheap as commo's have them
