Fitment And Offset Guys Get In Here

Post by Tony Boi 92 »

Hey guys
Anyone who knows offset and and fitment, I need your help ;)

Im not too clued up on fitment so please excuse me.

But im currently rolling on 16" Monzas as standard, with coilovers all the way down.

Could I fit 5x100 17" alloys but 8.5J off-set 13 on the front and 10J off-set 20 on the back?

Best regards
Cheers everyone!

8" can work, 8.5" is getting a little tricky. Very possible, but getting harder, need smaller tyres, etc.
Those offsets seem too low, I'm running 8's with a 38 offset, you could go lower if you're willing to poke / stretch.

If you're looking for a daily fitment that wont rub and you can go low, I'd recomend 8's with a 205 tyre. You can go a lot wider in the rear than the front.

How low? Are you willing to roll guards / run without arch liners? How much stretch? Will you play with the topmounts to get more camber?

They won't fit, static fitment Ive run 8j et30 all round 185-35-17 on the front and 195-40-17 on the rear you can run 195's on the front all depends how low you are tho because 8 et 30 is quite a aggressive offset And 195's can rub

Poke from arch
