listy Posted January 16, 2013 Author Share Posted January 16, 2013 I run a 255 on a 10" with ET20 and the wheel sits a little out. I need arch work to go lower though. And by my calculation with a 10" rim you can have an offset of et17 and be fine. with a 10.5" rim ET23 with 11" rim ET29 With 11.5" ET35 Et35 with a 10" is perfect for stock arch, as said, its what littler has, and fits perfect. Besides, not the question I'm asking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattdavies Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 My bad your rear arches are 18mm Wider given that a 10" et35 has 92mm of poke and your 9.5" ET10 ( et35-20mm ) gives 110.7mm of poke So 20mm Wider !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
listy Posted January 16, 2013 Author Share Posted January 16, 2013 Wow. I didn't even realise it was possible to gain 20mm with an arch roll! So, with my 15-20mm wider front wings, does this class as widebodied? I'm not sure lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattdavies Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Yeh Suppose it does class as wide bodied, Does your rear arch have a flat section ?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Littler Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Then it's a nice pull, just found this pic that shows it nicely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
listy Posted January 16, 2013 Author Share Posted January 16, 2013 Cheers Adam, didn't even think of that pic, and I already posted it on page one *facepalm lol I'm wide, yeah, I'm wide, uh! Nothing compared to some, but its subtle, which is nice. Just need to get the JDL rear arches on that are in my garage to make it a bit more obvious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marcAB10 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 i'm pretty sure your arches are standard bud.. rolling your arches just means it bends the little metal lip up on the inside.. an arch flare done using a roller would be very noticeably not stock. this is all what rolling your arches means - my guess is that the offset might not be what you think it is.

The arches are definitely pulled mate, as well as rolled, and the offsets definitely +35 as I bought the wheels brand new. My old Rays wheels were also +35, and fitted my stock NA perfect, but were lost in the arches on the TT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 I'd get some commercial tyres on it, the amount of bog in there must have put the weight up into the small commercial rating range Is it more important to make it look "`ard", than to make the car work right? Spacers are not the way forward on a powerful, heavy car...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
