Evil XR6T Bronze Donating Members 138 Member For: 13y 3m 16d Gender: Male Location: Townsville Posted 04/03/14 05:33 AM Share Posted 04/03/14 05:33 AM Hey guys, Trying hard to sift through all the threads to find an answer, so I'm hoping someone will be able to help me quicker. Basically I'm after a wide as possible rim as I can get. Plans are to to have the rim flush with the rear guard and 265 tyres (tiny bit of stretch). I currently have 17x9 +15 on the rear. I've been using the 1010tyres offset calculated and pretty much got most of it figured out, but what I'm worried about is one of the bolts on the lower control arm. Not sure if I'll get an 18x10 in. If anyone has done this, can they please let me know what offsets work and pics if possible !!!Promise to post pics when I get it figured out and the new rims !!!

I remember it having to be around the 20-25 mark to clear the knuckles where the control blade bolts on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive got 18x10 +33 rears on mine and it just clears the rear lower trailing arm. You'd want at least +33 or lower offset as mine are about 2mm away from the trailing arm.A lot of it will depend on the type / brand of wheel as some have indentations and some are flat on the barrel section of the wheel (dunno the correct term) that could come in contact with the trailing arm if there isn't enough space as the trailing arm sits in the rim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking I may just have to suck it up and get the 9.5's just incase. Ordering off the net, so no refunds unfortunately !!! Cheers mate !!!

vxr50t Member 134 Member For: 11y 8m 22d Posted 06/03/14 06:39 AM Share Posted 06/03/14 06:39 AM Yeah 9.5s are a safe bet. The +20 will stick out heaps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
