And I rekon an 11 would fit under an fg sedan, roll and pump. Will poke a little but aww baby would it be tough. +25 should be close.

I would really like to confirm it will fit before purchasing, Gaurds are getting rolled this week, wont be getting pumped unless I absolutely have to, I quite like the stretch look of the 275 on the 11 as it's the look im going for. These dont come out until the end of may so I still have plenty of time to get it sorted and make sure it's what I want. Can anyone help with the fitment on the inner gaurd for the rears?

11" +25 will stick out heaps on an fg sedan. I'm running 10s +33 with rolled guards and nearly -2deg camber and the sidewall just sticks out on stock height with 285/35

11 +25 will stick out by an extra 21mm compared to mine and have 5mm less inner clearance which will probably hit the lower trailing arm

Have a look at my rim test fit thread check out the first pics and you'll see what I mean

Rim Test Fit

You'll need to cut, weld and repaint the guards to make em fit

There you go, that's why I said don't trust me. + 40 would have to be done with lots of rolling and pumping, sticking out a little more than yours then.

My ute finally arrived!

Here it is looking like a friggen RTV just before I drove it home on Saturday.

First order of business; heave ho the roll bar and it's off for lowering on some new H&R/Bilstein progessive rate coilovers with reset leaves and billies for the back too. Then of course the wheels.

Hey guys, after some help as I have NO idea about wheels/offsets/tyre size etc.

I'm after a set of Varrstoen 1.1.2 's. What would be the best fitment for a FG ute?

Would prefer to keep them inside the guards and without a heap of stretch as I work next to a police station.

Cheers.

Hi ALLLAG,

I'm rather partial to those myself. They seem to be available in 9.5 +12 or +22 which would seem to mean they'd stick out too far on the front even with +22 which would stick the wheel out 32mm more than stock!?

I'm not sure if they'd do a custom offset? The 11's might be ok on the rear though?

Try this and it'll give you an idea. http://www.1010tires.com/Tools/Wheel-Offset-Calculator

Thanks mate. Appreciate your time.

Even with that calculator I still have no idea what I am looking at haha.

Looks like I would have to run some stretched tyres or find a different manufacturer that looks similar.

Pretty interested to see how you go fitting those 11s fletty. Hate to say it but I doubt they will fit without serious guard work. Unfortunately there's not a lot to gain from rolling fg rears. My 19x10+15s never cleared at all with 245s stretched on. Also for those looking for the varrstoens there's photos of my car with them fitted in the start of this thread. 19x10+15 all around. Have to be my favourite wheel haha.

Yea I would love to test fit them, but again without travelling 5+ hours no where here will supply wheels in that offset or size locally..

This is the look I would be aiming for, much preferring it over the 2.2.2
