Suprachargedtt Posted September 4, 2005 Author Share Posted September 4, 2005 Im running 18x10 (275/35/18) front and 18x12 (335/30/18) rears. Where did you get them from as i have been looking around and im finding that alot of people dont do a 12" rear! I am on a limited budget too so i cant spend thousands on them either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeeT Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 ive just fitted them to mine. i still have the 10" wheel with 275/35/18 at the moment and it doesnt look too bad. i may try some spacers to bring them out a bit when i decide what route to take. the fronts are still 9" 255/35/18 too. the front fenders from veilside dont really widen the front, they are just cosmetic. can get you a couple of pics later if you like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragonball Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 I have the same question now Have a set of Blitz 19" Technos to go on - 275/35 on the rears and 235's on the front I am afraid these will not fill out the arch enough... Any suggestions on spacers etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any suggestions on spacers etc? Speak to Ibrar. He will tell you how to measure them and arrange the corect spacer to bring the wheel out perfectly.

jazz1 Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 i know im not of great knowledge but someone told me not to put spacers as they affect the drive:rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 i know im not of great knowledge but someone told me not to put spacers as they affect the drive:rolleyes: There are spacers and spacers my friend. The thread you are refering to suggested using 80mm spacers. That was dangerous in the extreme! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazz1 Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 oh ok, just when i had my overfenders on someone advised not to use spacers at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supragold Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 If you decided against spacers make sure you go for the right offset. I run 18" x 10" on the rears with 285 30 18s that fill the arch completely. These have an offset of + 14 The fronts I run 18" x 9" with an offset of + 38.

Gamer Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 18 x 10.5 +45 (275/35) rear and 18 x 9.5 +40 (255/35) fronts for me with the use of some spacers supplied by Ibrar. Fills the arches perfectly. *Edited, put wrong offsets, all fixed now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonball Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Thanks for that I will get in the back of the Rav and get up to GVN and see how they look / measure them. Ibbrar - pick up ya phone! Nice pics Supragold BTW - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
npotts Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Guys How do you go about fitting the spacers? I was looking at my wheels the other day and they are fitted on using studs. If you put spacers behind your wheels, will there be enough thread to still be able to tighten them on properly or do you need to get longer threads fitted as well? (if that makes sense!!!)

Dragonball Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 You need longer studs often as not... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamer Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Some of the spacers come with longer studs, I think it depends on the size needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonball Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Just spoke to Ibbrar - the H&R kits come with everything required... So will get measuring later! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
npotts Posted March 27, 2006 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Cheers guys - thought as much.... I better get measuring too!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
