Yeah you can roll a bogged guard...gotta be very careful that's all, and be prepared to touch up. Paint can crack anyway without bog there. If guard roller is good it'll only crack in the part that gets rolled and then you can't really see it.

Mine needed rolling front and rear FYI

But I'm running 265's on the back and 235's on the front.

They were only just rubbing, rears rubbed when going over harsh bumps and fronts rubbed when turning

thats supposedly 2 degrees of rear camber (According to pedders) looks like more but

sorry to bring this thread back up, how will 17x8+33 and 17x9+37 look guys? i just want something to sit good without needing spacers, i am also going to have camber arms on the rear and if anything ill get the front rolled

these are the specs they have in stock as im most likely going through this dealership, its giving me a headache trying to work out what to get :wacko: i just dont want something to sit inside my guards to much

The 17” D1R’s come in an 8, 9, 10 option.

17 x 8 is in an +33 offset.

17 x 9 comes in +37, +17 and -4.

17 x 10 comes in a +15.

The matt black in 17 x 9 +17 and 17 x 10 +15.

See my previous post for side pic. it needed the guards rolled but thats all, no camber arms.

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm.
