Pattygtst Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Those are some massive guards there, i think you will need wider then the above stated to fill that guard Aside from that they look sic Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/225440-yl859-versus-rimms/#findComment-3970229 Share on other sites More sharing options...
waza Posted June 25, 2008 Author Share Posted June 25, 2008 yea they look really nice in person. ive tried 18x12 rimms (didnt fit) and 18x11 with a crazy offset of -19 these were about an each too wide. so i was thinkg spacers on these. hopefully there wide enough as i really like the style Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/225440-yl859-versus-rimms/#findComment-3970716 Share on other sites More sharing options...

NA_Goodness Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 They look great! You cant fix the lip if you scratch it, but just stay away from curbs!! But damn they look good!

Gregors Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 I think you're going to need bigger then 10.5's to fill those out, I've seen 18 x 10 +22 on the rear of an R33 with stock guards, may have been rolled.

HuH Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 (edited) Yeah those widths are fat but they won't fill the guards with that offset. No worries though, just run spacers and you'll be sweet. More width is even more $$ on tyres. Some 20mm spacers might do the trick? EDIT: I just re-read your post above about the 18x11 wheels that were an inch too wide with an offset of -19 (!!!). In that case you'll need bigger spacers than 20mm! Those guards obviously flare more than they look to me in the pics.

mr. kirisaki Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Umm offset? Don't think +35 is gonna look flush. You'll need at least -6 for that to fill anything. And don't buy rims with crap offset with the intention of putting spacers on.

waza Posted June 26, 2008 Author Share Posted June 26, 2008 you need +10 or similar offset with ur guards... hmm the offset the guy gave me said it was a guess as the 19's arent in the country yet. the offset maybe lower.i know they wont sit flush but will just have to wait and see how they look. and yea ill post pics when i eventually get them on Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/225440-yl859-versus-rimms/#findComment-3974301 Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Hypnotik~ Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Why the hell did you bother getting wide guards and then intend on getting wheels that won't fill them at all? It will look like absolute crap. To get those wheels with a +35 offset looking decent, you'd need 100mm spacers and thats just not going to happen. Those 18x11 -19 wheels will fit with EASE if you stretch some 255 tyres over them. Don't be weak, get them!

waza Posted June 27, 2008 Author Share Posted June 27, 2008 just measured the wheels and width today. standard wheels measure 6.5 yea. the width of the guards measure 85mm so thats about 3.5 inches making a total of 10inches wide to fill the guards or am i missing something here??
