Very Agressive wheel quesions.

[bowsercake]

well if u want agressive u gotta do more then just roll ur fenders. i had mine cut and pulled out and welded to add another full inch of clearence to fit my:

Work Equip
18x9.5 +28 offset
18x10.5 +28 offset

here u can see how much the wheels stuck out when i got them new just to mock up to stock body....

Those wheels look awesome. Are those 315s in the rear? Nice job!

You didn't have to take the liners out of the rears, did you? Think there is enough space for 285's in the back with that offset?

nope, didn't have to touch anything on the rears, just the fronts.

Mmm Sportmax 962's eh? More pics please? I've always wondered what they'd look like on a Mk3

any specific shots you want to see?

How bout some angled front shots? Just post up more pics....haha.

I've been trying to figure out the answer to this for months. I'm looking at some 18x9.5, +35 offset, and was hoping I could run 285's.

anyone running 315's in the back? i really want some 15's with 315 MT ET street radials.

Well, I have a MKIV wheel with 285 on it, that's a 50mm offset, and it's VERY close to rubbing. There's less then a finger's width in there. If you had a +35 offset, It's almost certainly going to rub.

personally I think I might be going with a 17x10 +35 in the back... with the car lowered I will need to roll the fenders... so I dunno about something that wide with such an offset.

I have 18x10s in the rear with 2853518's and no rear rolling of quarter panel. Coil overs also helps

^ but what offset?

Offsets are 35 both front and rear.
