Wheel Offset For Fg Ute...cause Ford Didn't Get It Right! ;/

Hi Guys! This is all new to me, I have just lashed out and bought an '08 FG XR6T in Nitro...love it to bits! Its stock as a rock, but provides a viable work horse with the 'Skyline' style performance, + more that I used to enjoy as a 'rice racer!'

One major annoyance to me though, is how far 'inboard' the stock wheels sit inside the rear guards!! I have seen a few sets of aftermarket wheels (19's & 20's) under FG's now that fill out those huge arches really well....

Can anyone tell me what offset/size etc they used to achieve this??

Cheers! :)

Are you after 18s,19s or 20s?

Hellaflush or flush? Or just in the guards?

18's or 19's would be good, and the flusher the better!...without scraping of course! I still want to maintain the smooth ride, and hight that I have now, but just fill the rears nicely. There was a Ute on eBay last week or so in QLD, it was well modded, Nitro and had nice 20's on it, they looked perfect, but I cant find his pics to post. ;/

No I don't!

they're 36 mm :)

They are illegal in vic and proabaly most other states.

I have no issues, except the left tyre touched a couple of times when a little loaded and cornering with bumps in the road
