Title: Running 9.5j rear off set 35
Post by: -luke-gti on July 31, 2014, 10:12:08 pm
Is anyone running 9.5 on the rear, if so what offset have you got & have you rolled arches?

That wheel guide is alright but it doesn't cater for people who want poke rather than tuck or
Flush fit. 

9.5 at the rear is what I'm running  with an et  40, I can run this fairly low but all depends what you want to achieve

It gives people enough information to work it out for themselves.
215/40 tyres and max camber will be fine.

Do you have a picture of your wheels so you can see how it sits, iv orderd some 9.5 rear et35 but I'm thinking now that there gonna be a lot of work to get them to tuck even with the arches rolled & camber

You won't get them to tuck without extending your arches.

This is how mine sits - I've done no arch work or camber, but this is the look I was going for.

Jay is right when he says you'll need extend your archers to get them to tuck
