T14PPA Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Im looking to buy work meisters but im unsure on colour and offsets so i would appreciate help. Im looking at 10j or 11j rears on stock rolled arches. And 9j fronts. I have uk brakes and im going to buy 18". Can people help me with what offsets ill manage to fit the sizes with? Also im not sure on what colour to go for. My car is 1a1 and im looking at either gold wid polished lip, black with polished lip, silver with polished lip, or polished completely. If anyone can help me with photoshop i would be thankful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T14PPA Posted May 19, 2013 Author Share Posted May 19, 2013 18x10 = et30 (ish) 18x11 = et40 (ish) Will these clear stock body? What about the front? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattdavies Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 I am 90% sure, I Run 18x10 et20 all round and they stick out. On the front I think et30 will be ok but not sure at all. I'm sure someone be along to let you know. Marc of Team Beard runs 18x11 et22 on the rear with a tyre stretch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T14PPA Posted May 19, 2013 Author Share Posted May 19, 2013 Thanks for the help. I want to go as wide as possible. But i dont want any rubbing or have to lift the suspension Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 (edited) With stock arches Front: 18x9 +35 Rear: 18x10 +35 Rear: 18x11 +45 If you roll the arches then you could go with a slightly lower offset but the width and type of tyres fitted will also effect the clearance. Front: 18x9 +30 Rear: 18x10 +30 Rear: 18x11 +40 Edited May 19, 2013 by Nic (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattdavies Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 A 255 on a 10" will give you a little space and likewise on an 11" a 275 would have the same effect. Good if you end up with et25 and et35 respectively Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kitch79 Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Hi, dragging up the old offset questions again! I remember seeing your post when it first went up, and actually took a pic of it ha! Useful info :-) Ive seen a set of wheels I really like, the offset is et31... But less width than what u have above. Ive used the "willtheyfit.com" to check it. seems ok, but with 12 years on here, do u reckon these would fit with standard arches? Front : 18x8.5J ET+31 Rear : 18x9.5J ET+31 Would the tyres need a stretch to fit? Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many thanks They should fit the stock arches okay, with 235/245 front tyres and 265/275 rear tyres you'll probably not need to roll the arches, although it'll be marginal.
