Default pic request - hawk wagons on 18s

Guys,
Picture request for hawk wagons running 18s. can you say what width, offset and tyres too. I'm having issues with rubbing on my rear arches and wonder if its just bad offset on the aftermarket wheels. I think they may be ok on saloons due to wider arches.
Cheers
Martyn

Hi Martyn

What wheels would you like to fut,we are running 245/40 ZR18 with 9.5JX18" ET38 without the problem,yes with this size you will need at least camber bolts and in best Coilovers

If its on yours,you have problems wit rubbing would suggest camber bolts and would say Coilovers would help,just due you will raise rear as we are and we don't have any issue with rubbing at rear

Here are pics,how it looks

That looks wicked mate
Mine is on lowering springs and I run 225/45/18s. I need to see what offset is but with 2 young kids it scrubs with every pothole, speedbump etc. I 'm not 100% i like my wheels so need to decide if I want to get 18s I like in a better offset, have arches rolled or maybe the springs/shocks are goosed.
