Title: Offset on 18\'s to fill burnout wide arch kit?
Post by: leeroy_25 on August 25, 2007, 06:54:54 PM
I am almost there getting my donor project car fingers crossed! I already have a wide arch BUrnout body kit to go on it and wondered if someone could tell me what offset I need on 18" rims with a deep dish to fill the arches? I think they are 20mm wider than the stock arches and I would liek to add a bit wider stance to the car, at last 10mm.. I am going for 18x9.5 rears ad 18x8.5 fronts.

Please can anyone give me some ideas..

i had the above sized whels with 35mm et. if i was going to do another burnout i`d up wheel size to 19" x 10.5 rear and 9 front with 30 et

the 18 x 9.5 don`t look big enough tbh

Hmm! Interesting.. Have you got any pictures of your car you could post or e-mail to me? Would be interested to see it! I am also in two minds about car colour! It\'s Black at the mo.. Could go for a full respray in Electric blue or Kandy red?!

Ohh the decision! Any other tips fr a burnout kits? Rear wing and nose that match nicely? Bonnet?

Not sure if to go for a minimal wing like the Re Amemiya one or a big one like the veilside or C-West shark wing like the supra\'s have? Scoot or Amemiya bonnet I think is a must.. Then I was looking at the C-west N1, Wise and Veilside D1 nose\'s. want it to look good and not like a chavved up ride!

Cheers
