Not going to risk it for a dirty offset. Might revert back to stock wheels for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ran 19x10+15 with rolled guards on the front and it still scrubbed occasionally. I wouldnt be cutting your braces out as those quarters are already soft. If your after more room, I would be removing your inner tray liner. Using a small porto power (hyrdraulic ram) in between the brackets and possibly a oxy if it doesn't want to move cold to pump the quarters out. Can get beautiful access from the inside and watch the quarter move. As you can see below Id be happy to have a look for any Sydney siders 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spent a while sussing out how to best roll the rear guards when its all already here....... Anyway I've got a set of Rota P45s on order for my fg ute. Rears will sit flush with the rear guards, (18x12 +20) with 335/30r18.The Ute's pretty low (same as smurfs pics earlier in the thread) as this is where the Performance Suspension 5 link works best.As the 5 link has some lateral movement the guards will be rolled and pumped as far as can be done without farking them. As for the removal of the guard bracket, if anyone else is worried about the quarters warping Performance Suspension make a replacement bracket that is glued to the inside of the guard not the turned in lip.
