info on overfenders and wings.

[drift student]

hi everybody :)

im currently running a 17" 8.5j rim on the back of the 180 cant think of the offset right now.
im using a 4mm spacer which brings the 235/45/17 tire to the arch which have not been rolled...

now im not so good with offsets and all that so wound anyone be able to tell me if i need a 50mm or 70mm overfender and what size wings i need for my eurolines

front 17x8.5+5
rear 17x9.5+5

thanks in advance.

50mm will be fine lad..............

[drift student]

would that bring the arch to the rim bart or would ibe spacing the rim at that??

ir your wheel offset is +5 and you spacer is 4mm , it would give you an offset of +1.

tese 2 cars have the exact same wheel size and offset as you would be running and they only have rolled arches and a bit of stretch.

if the offset info you have given is correct, you wheels would be lost under 50mm arches

aahhh! that has to be a much lower offset then! but a 50mm arch would be perfect then!

are you sure they are +5??

[drift student]

deffo 2.5 inchs outside the quarter with no spacer.
also needs spacers to clear the skyline calipers...

have pics to upload.

Camber and a light roll will be grand. You've only 13mm less offset than the wheels on the back of my old 180 with only the lips rolled flat
