A 10"+20 sits well on the front of an Fg.

Thanks for the info mate, I would of thought you'd need a higher offset of around +35 so it wouldn't poke to much? you got any pics of one fitted?

Depends if you got coilovers on front too so you can get some negative camber happening?

Upper control arm would be an issue if the offset is too high, and you might have issues turning with a 10 on the front.

In saying that I am thinking 19x9.5 +12 all round for my next set.

Hey guys, sorry if this is a stupid question but I'm a bit new to this!

Just had my fg xr6t lowered and new rims, I've gone ssl front and sssl rears.

Front tyres are 20x8.5 with no issues. Rears are 20x10(so I was told) but from what I read this particular wheel is 20x9.5. Tyres are 275/30/r20. I believe the offset is +45 from what I can find out.

My problem is they're so close to the guard and the rear drivers side scrubs on bumps but the passenger side doesn't. Also the drivers side rear seems to sit out more than the passenger side one?

Is this a camber issue? An issue with the car or are these wheels just never going to fit right?

Thanks

How close? Post a pic.

$100 on gaurd rolling is what I would recommend!

I'll grab a pic tomorrow mate. The real issue is that they don't sit the same on either side. Drivers hits the guard(regardless if its just me in the car or two people) and the passenger side doesn't hit at all. The drivers side sits like 3-5mm further out.

I'm looking into pumping the guards around 5-10mm to solve the problem but its always going to bug me that they don't sit the same :S

But aggressive for a fat slick freaky though in 17 will never be near gaurd anyway.

Fgtpsi diffs are rarely centred with panels. They can be adjusted, "centred" but IMO it's probably the difference in panel fitment.

Just roll pump and relax.

Just go a 9 or 9.5 + 30-35.

Or even 10 + 30.
