jimmixr Donating Members 686 Member For: 14y 1m 1d Posted 20/03/12 07:46 AM Share Posted 20/03/12 07:46 AM Worm.. not so worried about fitment. I know they will.. but more ride quality. Going to 295 with a 30 profile will raise the overall diameter way too much. So your sort of forced to run 25 at those widths.Hell.. there only tyres and Ebay is only a key-stroke away!! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thems the ones....Theyve got a very unique paint finish on them.. you can almost call it anodised.finish..Yeah a photo shoot would be great..Maybe whack em on yours to see..Got the workshop so its no hassle..Let me see if they fit 1st.. may require the services of the guard roller you used..Yeah that would be good Jimmi!I would be happy to give them a trial.With my 285/30/20 there was slight rubbing on the right hand guard.Now with the guards rolled perfect! Because you running 295/25/20 I think you will just make it in with out rolling. May be a good ideato roll them anyway just incase they touch with a bit of load in the back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And wheel width?They don't come in great offsets for front... 20x8.5 with +40 or +20... +20 will be close to hellaflush! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And wheel width?They don't come in great offsets for front... 20x8.5 with +40 or +20... +20 will be close to hellaflush!Mate I got 20x8.5 @ +20... and 20x10 @ +40 The fronts should sit fairly flush according to my calculations. And as Corzza stated.. the rears.. theoretically should just scrape in. Now in saying that.. different tyre brands are either wide or narrow carcas tyres. ie falken 275 were about the same width as a Kumho 245 when put side by side. Apparently Nittos are true to size..or atleast that's what Ali told me. In a strange sort od way I hope they do rub so I have to roll the guards and get the tolerances right down.

I may have to roll the leading edge of the front guard. It may catch on full lock combined with a bump..Should be flush.. not hella..Worm??!! Worm?!?!?!?! yes?!?!? Maybe ?!?!? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Born and Bred in the RSA Posted 20/03/12 07:46 PM Share Posted 20/03/12 07:46 PM My fronts just clear everything. +36 offset. Bees dick over the control arm, couple of sheets of paper between the brembos just how I like it.The Nittos are very true to form. A solid tyre that's for sure. I am really keen to see how the 295's sit. This was going to be my original choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmixr Donating Members 686 Member For: 14y 1m 1d Posted 20/03/12 11:33 PM Share Posted 20/03/12 11:33 PM Holy crap.. test fitted rims this morning.. rears are perfect..Fronts.. !! flush as.. and then some lolLooking at it ,and admitedly not having the hub at the right ride hieght theyre sticking out,,,couple of millFront rim inner edge to uppright ive got alout 20-25mm clearance. The spoke clears the brembo by about 40-50mmAgain thsre are rough measurments..Will fit it up again this arvo..So pete if yours are +36..and these are + 20.. mine will protrude a further 16mm.. that's going off an 8 inch rim. TSW's are 8.5.. so it will effectively be moreHmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
