Rear wheels are 15 X 8, have a 54mm spacer, and are ET 11.
Fronts are 15 X 7, have a 27mm spacer, and are ET 23. (stamped on the wheel)
Here are pictures of my fender gap, which is perfect. So, I'd like to maintain that, and move inward. I have plenty of space inside my wheel wells.
Dog is ET 8 years old.
Any help greatly appreciated. I'd like to order tomorrow. |
What you have now is
front 7ET -4
rear 8ET -43
to get wheels that have the outer lip where the existing wheel outer lips are you need
front 9 ET 21.4
rear 11 ET -4.9
tires will complicate it a bit as a 255 will hang out ~15mm more than a 225
Jeremy's is a good place to look, form my notes he has
9ET17.7 w/ a 4mm spacer for net ET13.7 w/ 255/40
11ET-8 w/ 315/35
If you like his fit you will like them on you car
to me the 7/8 w/ spacers pictured is too aggressive and sits too far out, especially so should you want to lower the car some.
