Title: OZ Futura\'s 11" wide at back, fit?
Post by: puggerchris on December 10, 2009, 06:37:15 PM

I have been offered a set of OZ Futura wheels which I love. Unfortunately the fronts are fine but they are 11" at the rear.
17/11 ET 50 to be precise.
The seller assures they will fit (but of course he would) so would they? I have standard ride, arches and suspension at the minute.And if so with what tyres? Can I put 255\'s on, is there much benefit to going any wider.

Cheers for your help

i guess u may have clearance issues on the inside being offset 50 on 11"...looks more like a supra offset....i guess also would need to run a stretch to get clearance on outside

I got some of the same rims, they are 265s on the rear (guessing 10") think it was ET35, apparently they fitted on the FD that it came off with no mods, so im thinking 11" might need some mods.

You may need to roll the inner guard a little but yes they will fit nicely

They are off a supra I think. I was planning to fit 255\'s to minimise problems but how do I go about rolling the inner arches if there is a problem?
Cheers for the advice.

A heat gun and an arch roller or a heat gun and a rubber mallet. Its only the inner lip that needs pushing back, have a feel and take a look and you will see what I mean. You might get away with not rolling it if your only running 255.
