If the rim measures 10" overall then you should see 162mm one side and 92mm on the other.

Is that from the centre line of the wheel? If it measures what you say is the et35 correct.

That's a great result, I suppose the story would be different if the suspension was lower on stock shocks, but awsome nonetheleast. A few pennies less to spend now then

Nah not yet but think i will fit some as the back does sit in slightly compared to fronts. Also the rear wheel centre caps dont fit on because of the rear hub nut cover.
