Hey Everyone :)

Wondering if someone can offer some advice...

My current rear wheels are 18x9 ET45  and are about 1" short (inboard) of the wheel arch and whilst it looked good without a body kit it looks a little silly now the rear bumper and skirts are fitted.

The maths give\'s the following
Backspacing: 6.77"
Frontspacing: 2.23"

For an ET22 wheel (9.5") you get:
Backspacing: 6.23"
Fronspacing: 3.38"

Question is will that fit under a stock wheel arch... It looks like it will from where my current wheels sit... but I\'m not totally sure...

Cheers
Dave

I have 10s with a 36 offset and they rub on track with 265s (and the inner arch lips are turned over. Depending on how low you are and how much roll you are inducing you might just about be ok but I wouldnt be surprised if they rub tbh. Mine needs a 45 offset, mate run 10s with a 50 offset and lots of camber and they are perfect on stock arches.

I\'ve got pair of et22 9\'s that i plan on fitting when the car turns up, i\'ll let you know then :D
Make the car fit the wheels :nod: :D
If needed, as small lip roll, and bobs yer uncle :)
