More poke and higher wall on jd's wheels atm? The walls on them rotas look pretty small, probably suit the small Lexus car much betterGreat minds think alike ff lolon my car atm they are 18x9.5 -23 so fair bit of poke with a 215/40 tyreI will upload a pic soon from behind (its dirty though and car looks crappy lol)yer I found 18/19's look too small on fg utes.I got 9.5 inch rears with +30 and I recon it needs more poke. but im happy with it.what size tyre? do u want poke, or fat tyre ??ive had 18's and 19's on my car I like the look of both, depends on wheel choice aswell I think and offsets, if smaller and way inside guards wont look great, but if flush will look alot nicer !! Hey JDWill probably be going staggered 9.5 and 10.5. Havent chosen tyres yet. Havent even chosen rims lol. Was gonna try get 18" but might end up with 19.as I stated before work out if u want them to poke and how much because if they poke alot u will never be able to run a fat tyreif they don't poke as much you will be able to use a wider tyre and always have the choice of spacers ! (im in the process of deciding more poke or a bit less on a new set for this very reason)yer that's what I was trying to say shy ...yer jds has more tyre wall. lol215/40 so skinner tyre then "stroller" posted but a little more sidewall, would work out similar height wise ! Two weeks until wheels. Front 20x9 + 15 rears 20x10 +20 :D Pics of wheels ! Edited 14/06/12 10:02 AM by j.d
