Fg Offsets And Tyre Questions

[barnz]

?? Wouldnt think the front would be that much different. If that measurement was from the "top"(its round I know...) of the rim the difference could be camber. If its from the bottom closest to the ground perhaps the whole subframe needs to be shifted, not sure if you would be able to get 10mm of shift though.

Looking at putting some 19x8.5 +22 fronts & 19x9.5 +22 rear (275/35/19) Enkei GTC01's on my fg sedan. Wondering if anyone has some re-assurance/guidance about the rears before I go and test fit them? Only on SSL's all round so its not ridiculously low but not a 4x4 either..

On stock height....rears would be 10-15mm or so past the gaurd. With SSL im sure it would tuck it a little bit more.

I rekon it will be close....just roll the gaurds if you get into trouble

you don't gain to much by rolling the rear guards (fg sedan) but you can flare them, in saying that 19x9.5+22 will fit with >10mm of poke

19x8.5+22 will be flush to the guard

Cheers for the replies & info. Unsure if I'll go ahead with them - don't think I I can be bothered with getting guards flared etc just to get them to be flush.. Would it attract attention from the boys in blue with 10mm of poke?

Edit: I know 10mm is F*ck all but can't be bothered with cops lol

Dang....how much did you get? Or are yours flared?

I was hoping 10mm ... but guessing that's optimistic

mine sit around 15mm out from the guard, and never had drama, just make sure the tyre sneaks under...

I flared mine, just so I could get the R888's on my rims, I got 15mm without much sweat at all..

Fronts with 265s lol she'll be right bro

Once I lower might tuck a little bit

Rears should be a tiny bit less agressive, see what happens....

Who did you use to pump? I've been told by a nerd on here that Des @ Auto FX is the rolling king.

265 on the front make the steering pretty heavy. I'm gonna get a bit narrower tyres for the front next time

[PTR_NITRO_FG]

You rekon? I was hoping it would provide more turn in grip....

Wasn't 100% whether it would help understeer or make it worse
