Fg Offsets And Tyre Questions

[JulzC]

Any advice on matching tyres? Just wondering how accurate this chart is: http://www.tyres-pneus-online.co.uk/equivalency-tables-advice.html

Specifically the 'minimum' tyre width. If JD is putting a 215 tyre (I think!) on a 9.5" rim looks like its not really recommended. But I would like a bit of stretch (and save some $ ) so how do you work it all out

[j.d]

That seems pretty close, 215 has stupid amounts of stretch on a 9.5" rims, need a truck blaster (think that's what they're called) to fit them,

A 245 still has stretch on a 9.5" rim

And I use to have 285 on a 9.5 but wouldn't be able to go much wider.

What width rim do you have ? And what tyre r u thinking ?

How long until we get to see your new wheels jase?

[j.d]

Lol, dunno man, he said hopefully have me to me this week, just wants to fix some drip marks ! but until I have em who knows

Also JulzC I will be putting 245 tyres on 10" rims when I finally get them Back

my wheels are 19x10.5 +12 all round. Just waiting on the panel beater to roll the rear and then the 10mm spacers are going on.

Smurf what's it like on the front? Do the ever scrape turning? And have you lowered it?

[SMURF6]

Never scrapes or anything, Tein Coilovers at the front set all the way to the lowest height. Tein Shocks in the rear, superlow leafs and 1.5" lowering blocks. I also have the Tein EDFC system so all shocks are usually set to the hardest setting in Sydney streets.

No skimping on cheap parts at all! Haha. That was what I was looking at going anyway in the front (coilovers)Thanks!
