That isn't staggered though.

 

I would be very very surprised if ET15 were OK on the rears. Mine are ET20 with overfenders.

 

but how wide are yours bud - these are only 10j

 

and they have a 3.5" lip front and 4.5" lip rear so def look staggered :)

10J on the front with ET10

 

will stick out 65mm than the standard.

 

 

to give you some idea, mine come out dead level with the arch, which is 35mm.

 

 

so out another 3cm they would stick, would need to be rolled to cover the wheel

 

 

 

id say the rears would have to be rolled also. judging how i measured how much space i had on my wheels

probably could come out a bit more, but think the arch would been bit of trimming, depends how low you are aswel i supose?

 

Have another look at the ops sizes ;)

 

The front's are ET40 :D

 

 

 

 

Jamesy, I would be very surprised if you would get away with it to be honest. Even if you pushed the envelope you would need to seriously work the arches to get them to fit properly at a decent height.

just been on this offset calculator site:

 

from my current set up of

 

18x8.5 et 35

18x9.5 et 35

 

the 18" wheels above (18x9 et 40 and 18x11 et 32)

 

will sit out 1mm further front

and 22mm further rear - now i currently have a 25mm spacer on the rear, so it'll be in 3mm than currently - which is perfect....

 

....thats if this calculator can be believed!!

Why not pick the ideal size then get alloys to match it though? Doesn't make sense doing it in a pot luck fashion ;)

 

Edit: I'm curious, how high is your car? I can't see your wheels fitting with a 25mm spacer, it doesn't add up. The only way I can see it happening is if you area actually clearing the arches from underneath.

the 19x10 meisters are mine and fit great when i test fitted them to my GS300, sat flush up front and a couple of mm proud at back (a little stretch or a wee flair would have being fine) i thought they would have gone on a supra fine?

Hello mate - not sure how the GS300 measures up to a supra in terms of fitments and offsets?

 

just trying to work it out again on an offset calculator!! ;)
