Question for Trouser?

What am i going to have to do if i want to fit OZ 18" SuperL's on MY UK99 without them rubbing?
My understanding is that the 48mm offset could cause a problem, what's best to do? Change suspension, get the arches rolled (whatever that is?) or somehow make the wheel arches bigger??

any help would be a bonus

Cool


Hi mate

if they are 48mm offset.. and with a 215 tyre.. you might just get away with it. All our 18" wheels for classic are ET50 which makes life easy.... and the 19" styles we do for GC8 are all ET52 just to tuck in that little bit more.

If memory serves me well.. the Prodrive 18" are ET 53.. so thats the ideal .. although it can limit negative camber on the rear in certain applications.. dependant on tyre width.

If you do get slight rubbage .. oo-er.. any decent bodyshop can roll the arches for not a lot... and give you a few extra mil to play with.

Hope that helps

Cheers
