Oddball87 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Hi all, before I order a set I need a bit of help with the sizes please. I will be running 18 x 12j at the rear but I am unsure what size on the front? Will 9.5j be ok? Plus what offset? I will have nur Motorsport arches fitted.

Cheers matt If you have wheel arches, I would probably go with a 18x10 +35 call ben at rarewheels and see what he thinks, they were super helpful when I did my setup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaan W Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Mine are et20 on the rears but I think you can get away with et20 so ive been told. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTurtleshead Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 ET 20 sounds about right on nur rear arches in that width, you need the wheels before you fit the arch as you can move them about when mounting to get the perfect fitment to the wheel. You can squeeze a 13j under there though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can squeeze a 13j under there though! Exactly what I done. When I first rivited the arches on before actuall bonding them when I first lined the wheels up they were well off. Also regarding the 13J fitment wheres a good place to find that wheel of that width? Ive searched but cant find anywhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes they will fit! I run 20mm spacers on the rears also with the 12j wheel and theres still plenty of room. Just get the 335s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oddball87 Posted January 9, 2013 Author Share Posted January 9, 2013 (edited) I rang Rare rims today to place my order. I went with Rota GTR-D in hyper black fronts 18/10j rears 18/12j. I am going to try Kumho Ecsta V70A softs fronts 245 or 255 rears 335. Edited January 9, 2013 by Oddball87 (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qwarrior Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Sorry for the hijack, but what is the perfect offset etc to fill stock arches front and back... Not keen on the wheels being inside the arches thanks. I have Rota GTR-D Back 18x10j et25 with Falken452 265 and Rota GTR front 18x9.5j et35 with Falken452 245 and they fill stock arches. All in £1300 odd from Paul at Whifbitz. Pop over and have a look if you like mate, I've already offered to let Jamie (Fosta) try them on for size. We can't all have the same wheels in the North East though, it's gonna be a Rota club up here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All in £1300 odd from Paul at Whifbitz. Can you post up a couple pics mate? I was considering these wheels for mine, would like to see how yours look in stock arches. Is your car lowered or stock height? And are the GTR-D available with concave? Be either those or the GTR concaved, or Force concaved.
