Sadly Rota only make them in 9.5” :( im thinking the +20 might be what I end up doing and then doing some trial and error with ride heights when I get coiloversOld post I know im running 18x9.5 +18 all round on my fg with 245/40/18 tyres F&Rrear guards rolled & sat fine with sssl rears & ssl fronts, its sitting on coilovers now & no scrubbing 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jair12 New Member 1 Member For: 5y 6m 26d Posted 30/04/19 07:13 AM Share Posted 30/04/19 07:13 AM I'm currently in the process of finding a good set of rims/tyres to suit a 2010 fg xr6 The car im purchasing is the colour code VP (Viper/Purple) I will be running stock suspension and was looking at 19" rims 8.5 front/9.5 rear width. What is the range of the offset that would suit? Furthemore what would be suitable sized tyres for these rims considering I'm wanting a staggered set-up. I would also like a slighly lower front than rear without suspension mods. Would appreciate some help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldnt go closer to the strut, and if your increasing rim diameter you might even need to go further away. pop your hand to the the top of the rear of the tyre and feel what kind of clearance you have.

If anyone making custom order for wheels - and looking for near factory fitment, I would recommend offset of no less than +30 if opting for 8.5 inch wheel. Ensures any 245 tyre used will fit and not foul on suspension arm. +35 will fit, but some high performance tyres with aggressive rim protectors may foul on inner side.

MaStars Donating Members 81 Member For: 7y 5m 20d Gender: Male Location: The Gap, Brisbane Posted 06/08/19 06:56 AM Share Posted 06/08/19 06:56 AM Hello there, I am thinking about getting some new rims and run the new 245/35-R19 Falken Fk510 is just got for my factor 19". I like the idea of using OEM style wheels but was looking at the Nissan OEM forged wheels and came across the Skyline V35 Coupe wheels. they are Rays Forged one piece wheels Nissan use from factory. I have found a set relatively cheap on Gumtree for about $650. https://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/golden-grove/wheels-tyres-rims/rays-forged-wheels-with-new-tyres/1225066514 Apparently they are quite light about 8-10Kg per wheel, id say much lighter than the current ones, so maybe a bit of a performance gain also. Has anyone on here fitted a set of these on a FG falcon Sedan from my understanding and using the "will they fit" website the sizing and offset difference isn't huge from my Factory 19"s. I like the idea of these being a lot lighter and will work with my new tyres. Now I think the Nissan centre bore is 66mm and the ford is like 73.1mm but I am sure I can use come centre bore spacers? Stud pattern is - 5x114.3Fronts - 19 x 8 +33 Rear - 19 x 8.5 +35 will be looking to fit my 245/35-R19 Falken Fk510 thoughts? excuse my sh*tty Photoshop lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
