Hi everyone,

I have a fg f6 with the dark argent wheels. Im about to order some Work Wheels XSA 02C in 19x8.5 and 19x9.5.

The thing that im having trouble with is choosing the offsets. After seeing a few different offsets on here I think im going to go

for +25 front and +30 rear the same as winstor. Every calculator Ive used on the net suggests the rears will stick out the guard.

Is this offset a bit too adventurous? Id like them to sit right in line with the guard.

This is the wheel and colour

How much lower is that Tocchi?, looks awesome. Mine is not lowered as yet but will be. Was thinking 245/35 and 275/30

275 should be fine, I used the 265s on track work, with the car at its lowest setting, (lower than in the above photo), and it didnt rub

What rims exactly are those 265's used for track work?

Are they 18" x 9.5" +30 offset front and rear or is that just your street rims?

Looking good Tocchi. Big tyre on the front, what does it look like from top down? Does that size on the front clear everything at full lock? What sort of clearance is on the inside?

Thanks,

Benny.

work emotion XT7's 18x9.5 +30 ... 265/35/R18 tyres

front is 18x8.5 +25, but I fitted a rear on the front to see how it looked, and it looked good.

my street rims are 19x10 +10 and 19x10.5 +23

benny, those are 275/40/R18 (might be 265 actually unsure) ET Streets (drag tyres) so actually a high sidewall compared to street tyres.

with the regular tyre size, you will not have any clearance issues :)

DO IT!

Porn rim, don't let me near it or I may rub myself all over them :P

You will be very, very happy with the rears, bit hard to tell with fronts on mine since the place that fitted my rims and tyres put a bit of camber in, however they sit pretty much in line with the guards too.

I will be test fitting my 9.5+30 on the front soon, so if you want to wait to see how it clears on mine you could possibly go 9.5+30 all round. I am also running 245/35 front, 275/30 rear.

Can't test fit as they are made to order only, that said can have almost any offset and come in 5 different discs(faces) to clear various brakes.

Work wheels aus asked me to measure up the brembos also.
