A L 3 X Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 As in the title, seen some I like but not arsed if theyre gonna rub my arches to shit lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Matt1878 Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 You would need to roll the arches mate.. 15"x7 et25 is the very limit before needing a little work Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kbond Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Talk to iamlegend im sure he has these Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TurboTobz Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 My mate ran et0's without touching his arches he had rub when going fast and hit a pothole or something but otherwise perfect Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TrisK Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 No you'll be fine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Matt1878 Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 No you'll be fine.You sure ... Depending on what suspension he's on.., I'm sure I asked the same question not too long ago as I was looking at the same wheels... Was told even et20 would catch on lock. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Was told even et20 would catch on lock.Positive. Just fitted 15x8 et25 to my mates GT and its fine 15x7 et20, is only very minimally out of spec. Youll have problems if your slammed And i might recommend 195/45s instead of 50's. but it will work Quote Link to post Share on other sites
iamlegend Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 All good I have these with 195/50 tyres on and mines pretty much low with zero scrubbing on coilovers thow.. Rear arches rolled thow just incase Quote Link to post Share on other sites
A L 3 X Posted May 1, 2013 Author Share Posted May 1, 2013 Hmm that's the thing I don't really wanna touch the arches if possible :/ I've m running Meister R with a cusco panhard rod if that helps? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
iamlegend Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Rolling the arches was just incase but don't scrub anyways so... It's all gravy mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amjad Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Just get them all rolled Alex, make life easier! They'll look a lot better with 45 profiles too Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TurboTobz Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Hmm that's the thing I don't really wanna touch the arches if possible :/I've m running Meister R with a cusco panhard rod if that helps? same suspension and wheels as my mate had also I have a picture I'll upload when I find the wire to my camera I have one on my phone but it's not clear I'll try uploading it later anyhow, his offset was 0 though looked like a gokart!

A L 3 X Posted May 1, 2013 Author Share Posted May 1, 2013 Yeah looks good but I'm just worried about running Amjad, the lad before me lowered the car on springs and knack weed shocks and it rubbed the paint of the arches, had to repaint them so don't fancy doing them again :/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Mine scrubs on the inner arch on full lock on the stock speedlines with 195/45's.Good excuse for spacers though Quote Link to post Share on other sites

snails ep91 Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 they look great. love the wheels. pretty much exactly what i want but i want a stepped lip tbh. what are they tyre specs on them do you know? the rears look more stretched from pics. two very nice looking gt's though Quote Link to post Share on other sites
iamlegend Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 No scrubbing! No catching on full lock! 195/50 tyres!

A L 3 X Posted May 1, 2013 Author Share Posted May 1, 2013 How stiff are your coillies set mate? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Burny Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Very surprised that they dont rub! Im running 25mm spacers on my V with TE37's think they are +37 and they used to wreck my tires before i had the arches rolled Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amjad Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 You guys that have rolled them, did you get the arch lip inside treated with something to stop water from getting trapped and making it rust? That's the only thing that worries me about rolling arches Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sjbrowning7 Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 No scrubbing! No catching on full lock! 195/50 tyres! Grid V 15x7 et20! running like a gem hew! That looks mint, I really want some grid v's but in hyper blue to go with my colour scheme. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
