i dont really want to use spacers unless i have to but i want some wheels to fit like they do and i could do with knowing the size so i can price some up,

would be a pain if i ordered the wrong size

The Ridox kit is 30mm wider at the front and 50mm at the rear

 

Depends what width wheels you want to fit, the following widths and offsets would be flush with the wider arches.

 

Front 9.0 +05

Rear 10.0 -15

 

Front 10.0 +15

Rear 11.0 -05

The - and + indicates negative or positive off-set

The offset is the distance in mm between the centre line of the wheel rim, and the line through the fixing (hub) face. You can have positive, negative or neutral offset.

Just to explain how I worked out the offsets above, the wheel widths and offsets below would be almost flush with the stock wheel arches.

 

Front 9" +35

Rear 10" +35

 

The Ridox wheel arches are Front 30mm/Rear 50mm wider than stock, so if you want the wheels to be flush with the wider arches then the wheels would need to sit 30mm further out at the front and 50mm further out at the back. Assuming the wheels are the same widths then you would need to reduce the offsets by 30mm at the front and 50mm at the rear ie. Front +35 - 30mm = +05, Rear +35 - 50mm = -15.

 

Front 9" +05

Rear 10" -15

 

You can use this offset calculator to determine what offsets you will need for different wheel widths.

In regards to the width of the arches thats what I had read too however in add heywoods thread "going full ridox" he says there not as wide as they say they are.

 

"The arches don't actually add as much width as what they say, rears about 35mm from the standard arches (50mm on spec) and fronts about 15mm (30mm on spec)."

No prob and yeah I think thats the best option you wouldn't want to spend a fortune on wheels and then see they're not a good fitment :)
