LDXR6T Member 4 Member For: 14y 6m 19d Posted 29/02/12 02:41 PM Posted 29/02/12 02:41 PM Hi Guys! This is all new to me, I have just lashed out and bought an '08 FG XR6T in Nitro...love it to bits! Its stock as a rock, but provides a viable work horse with the 'Skyline' style performance, + more that I used to enjoy as a 'rice racer!'One major annoyance to me though, is how far 'inboard' the stock wheels sit inside the rear guards!! I have seen a few sets of aftermarket wheels (19's & 20's) under FG's now that fill out those huge arches really well....Can anyone tell me what offset/size etc they used to achieve this??Cheers!

I still want to maintain the smooth ride, and hight that I have now, but just fill the rears nicely. There was a Ute on eBay last week or so in QLD, it was well modded, Nitro and had nice 20's on it, they looked perfect, but I cant find his pics to post. ;/
