Fg Offsets And Tyre Questions

[fr33r]

Invos are the pants or go Nitto semi slicks. Taleb tyres sell them at the best prices.

100kg of sand bags in the back of ute helps too. Have to get some weight on the tyres...

Sorry if this has already been answered... there is way too much to read!

Will these fit my FGII ute

My Ute is pretty slammed, I would defintely have to get the guards rolled...

Wheels Front: 2x 20x8.5 Lenso D1R, Offsett 35 (65mm dish)

Wheels Rear: 2x 20x10 Lenso D1R, Offsett 42 (100mm dish)

With a stretch tire, not sure of size?

Thanks fr33

I really want to get myself a set of new wheels too

Love the look of orignal dark argents ( I have twisties at the mo) but argents are only 8 wide, these with nitto any good or am I better off going wider fitting wheels, found some nice varrstoens 19 x 9.5 front and 19 x 10.5 rear?

No need for stretched tyre or guard work with those offsets in a ute.

Not 100% sure on utes but offset is far from flush and may even be too close and rub on the inside. I think pazzo had a +38 that rubbed on the inside

I am also not 100% on utes, last ute I had was a BA but wider is definitely better. Those sizes will work well in the right offset but keep away from stretch on the tyres. Invos - 255/35/19 on the front and 305/30/19 on the rear would be my pick.

You can get argents staggered but only in 20's

With those varrstoens you'll need stretched tyres on the rear. You can get the varrstoens in 8.5/9.5. If you like them may also consider rota grid r

Thanks mate

Have heard to steer clear from non-genuine FPV ones

Have made some phone calls today and found some NICE wheels, the guy has basically talked me into 20s though, still want 19s im guessing better performanc, more tyre variety etc?

Brand is called STANCE wheels, they have some rippers, but must be ordered in from the states :(

[Bellato]

19's perform better but tyres aren't really any dearer or less available

Which one's? Sc-5's or evolution? They both looks really good! By the way you can get them in Aus through Ozzy tyres but I would buy them from the states over ozzy lol

[bjwortley]

I have found these sweet ones sc-6 in a grey color, would suit my ego color ute down to a tee

Spoke with a guy here in SA that can order them, but they dont have that style and unless they order 80pces, I have to pay big bucks on freight!

[Bellato]

I prefer the 5's but 6's aren't bad. Post from the states is about $400ish for wheels only
