So if I intend to lower it +15 with maybe a 225 tyre and a tiny bit of cambre?

beforelowering it was about 15mm from flushthen afterlowering it was more like 20mm from flush.

Look so good mate! Do you know how much room you had on the inside of the rears between tyre and control blade? I need to tuck them in more because I'm putting ssssl springs in so I think if I went an offset like yours I would scrape on the tyre pretty bad

Yea I think I should be able to fit a +40 offset then! A lot of people have said its hard to get a 285 to fit but looks like you have a tiny bit of stretch which works well the tyre off the control blade. Thanks for the pics mate!

Will this fit an FG Ute?

19x9.5+12 245/40R19

19x10.5+12 245/35R19

Starting to become like worm, only owned the car for 8 days and already onto my 3rd set of wheels. :tomato:

Edit: What about those offsets maybe even only 9" wide on the front in a 17" Rim, I am keen to see what a 17" rota wheel will look like lowered to the tire.

The offsets are the same as stock +35. Clear the brembos my mm. I reckon 3 or 4 sheets of paper can slide in between the gap

Rolled guards is no problem.

I am trying something different. Want to see what a 17" rota grid looks like against my car black on black with decent profile tire mainly because the roads to my work are sh*thouse.

My car isn't lowered so it doesn't matter anyway but I would still have to roll my guards correct?

I am more worried about hitting on the inside of my guards on the front and rubbing on the wheel arch lining. Going down this week some time to test fit the wheels but they have no tires on at the moment.

Only other question I have is the wheels I have now chosen to get are 17"x9 with a offset of +25 all round. Running standard 245 profile tires.

I am worried about the center bore of the wheels. They were bought for a Honda S2k and the center bore for those are 70.1 and FG center bores are 70.5, where would I have to go to get the inside slightly machined for the extra 0.4mm?
