Thanks Stiflr I forgot he had them too! Your right I won't be able to fit the rears without some guard work but Stiflr has 285/30 at the moment and fadz come with a 255 so with that much stretch I should be fine. Plus I can test fit them and see what they're like then get the guards pumped with my old rims on and then put the vertini's on once guard work is done

Still not 100% sure of Fadz's offsets yet though, +35 all round?

Also has anyone ever increased they're offsets? Is it possible to shave a couple of mm off the inside of the wheel to get a higher offset or once the wheels are manufactured that's it

There is a set for sale on Ebay, $1700 20x8.5+15 and 20x10+20. Falken tyres in black.

That's too aggressive of a fitment for what I'm after but pretty good price. I'm committed to buy fads' now, getting them 2moro!

The offsets are 38 rear and 42 front! Rear is almost perfect but will still need some guard pumping, front is really high but I'll put a 5mm hub spacer if I want to bring them out more to put wider tyres on!

Yeah mate they are +35 all around. Bees dick clearance over the brembos. I rolled my guards as it was rubbing slightly on the right had rear. My cradle is off 3mm to the right. Other than that fit snug

Sweet! If I remember correctly you had a about 7-8mm clearance to the control blade so at +38 I should be able to go 275/35 or 285/30 yea? Will definitely pump my guards because the cars gonna be low

Did JD have +35 all round or +42 front and +38 rear? These were his orange vertini's?

Yeah that's right around 7-8mm. +38 should be fine mate. I got 285's on mine at the moment no dramas
