is it right to bend whilst on the car? or better to pull it off and do it properly?

18x9 / 18x11
After a re-measure today of the rears, it will maybe just fit. I had a 17inch rim handy with no tyre; Measuring along the top of the 17's I need 2mm more clearance to the flexible part of the break line.. once I go to 18 it should be 0-1mm clearance, So how hard is it to bend the break line while still on the car. everything else clears by 10mm at 17inch and clearance will increase the larger the wheel..

I will pull the rears back off tomorrow and get some more measurements. anything I should look out for?

yeah, as I don't know the lip size I didn't think it would be an accurate conversion. I threw it into an Backspace > Offset calculator with 12.7mm Lip and came with 31.65 Offset.

isn't offset distance from center, backspace distance from outside lip of rim?

Any idea of the offset? I currently have 275/35 r 19 mounted on a 9.5 rim. It sits about 10mm in from the tray. But the wheels came with the car so I don't know the offset- backspace is 165mm.

Forgot to mention, the rear rims I believe they will be close to flush with a few mm poke- then the tyres will poke.

Hey im going to purchase some rims in the next few days - was thinking to go with Koya SF01 with custom offsets. FG UTE with tray back. Stock Height on front- rear is on airbag+leaf spring settup. Fronts: 18 x 9 +25 offset (with 255/40 R18 Nitto Invo) Rears: 18 x 11 +35 offset (with 295/35 R18 Nitto Invo) My Question are: Any reviews on Koya SF01 Semi forged Will the fronts fit without scrubbing the internal guards/control arm. If I need to roll my guards im happy, I just don't want inner scrubbing. Rears: _____TRAY_______] |<--175--><--115--> |_______П |¯¯¯¯¯¯¯Џ<-Hub | |<--less 30mm clearance from body of ute and airbag will 30mm clearance be enough to clear once the tires are mounted to the rim. Hopefully my diagram works, if not ill draw something up soon. Thanks guys.

2008 FG XR6 ABS and Stability Faults
Pretty sure it is the brake switch. I had the same issue either it can be faulty or just need a re-adjustment.

Thanks for your help.. ill definitely drop the tyre pressure next time I run.. just with the airbags + leaf springs does anybody have an idea on how inflated I should have them.. either way the rear doesn't go full hard. So im not to sure as my understanding is the rear should be hard front soft.

Correct if tyre pressure or the airbags can be changed to improve. Im guessing so if 1.9 is possible on street tyres.

Hey I've got an auto FG trayback ute with 315rwkw. Running ET Streets 275/40 R17 with 28psi Stock front suspension and stock rear leaf springs + airbags. The airbags dont really stiffen the rear it just raises it but still is soft. I was running the bags nearly empty. Just curious if there is much time to drop off my 1/4 and 60ft with adjustments to anything.. I stalled up to 2k rpm then launched it pretty hard. I dont think the wheels were slipping but it wasn't filmed so I cant be certain.

injector (0280158383)
Hey everyone I will be getting my car tuned this week.. the previous owner installed injectors and I dont know what they are. I would like to find out it they will be compatible with the new tune before I go there. Item number: 0280158383 From searching around it seams to be made by bosch but any charts or list dont contain that specific part number. Sorry if the photo isnt clear enough. Thanks in advanced..
