hello all just a quick question
if i have a focus rs 18x8 wheel with a 215/35/18 tyer and an off set of et42 what size spacer if any will i need to fit these to a 1989 2wd saph? also would the standard nuts/studs still be ok to use in this aplication? any help will be great

 

Alright mate,

u will need a 5mm spacer to take them down to et37. but i would never use a spacers really on a car like that.

The nuts will be the same as well 12mmx1.5


is the car running standard suspention, i ask only cozz if it is u will have to watch the top of the tyre on the under side of the strut on the fronts, thats why it has to be a 215 tyre and the correct offset

Hope this helps

Ben

 

the car is lowered but by how much im not sure, at the moment it has 17x7 and there is no tyre-arch conflict, mind you the tyers are only 205/40/17 do you think i'll need many arch mods to get them to fit
many many thanks for your help

 

when i had my cossy i had 7.5" x 18" wheels and i did roll the archs on the front as they did catch a bit and they were et37

Have a look
