Thanks Nic :) is that from experience or are you calculating it?

 

I'm calculating it from experience :) This is a pic of mine fitted with 18x9 +32 front and 18x10 +32 rears, the wheels sit practically flush with the arches but needed a small amount of rolling so the tyres wouldn't rub. I usually work - as do a lot of Japanese wheel manufacturers - from the rule that Front 9" +35 and Rear 10" +35 should fit flush with the stock arches without rolling them (although this will vary depending on what size and model of tyres are fitted).

 

So if you use 10" +35 as a starting point, in comparison the 9.5" +12 wheels you are asking about will sit 17mm further out. Alternatively if you compare them with my wheels pictures 14mm further out.

Thanks again Nic :)

 

I knew that it was measured in mm too Damien, brain fart/too many dutch ciggies last night maybe ;)

 

You'd think picking a new set of wheels would be a nice experience, it's not, it's torture!
