The 180sx and offest problem :)

[mel3003_uk]

Finally all the suspension arms have been cleaned up painted and it is now 5 stud, one slight problem is after 50mm rears the wheels stick out just a lil bit.
Car has no engine atm as it is currently being built by WK Developments.

Your tyres are massoive....! What with are your wheels change the tyres and you will need serious stretch and it will look savage...!

[mel3003_uk]

Those are the tyres that came with the wheels they will be changed for some stretch but will still stick outside the arch. The wheels are 17x10 with a 5inch dish

Whats the offset of the wheels....! They don't look like 50mm fenders as iv a bn kit on my 13 and its 50 mm and sticks out way more....! They look like 30mm....! Stretch the shit outta the tyres and drop it so the tyre will just tuck in under the arch...! With enough stretch it will work and look savage...!

Wat size tyre is on it now look like a 275 or summit...!

Wat offsets on the rear shouldnt be out so far On a 10j I've 50 mm arches an I've 11.5j -8 with superlow disk and they fit grand

[mel3003_uk]

Currently dont know the offset, but have found out that the rears are not 50mm they are 30mm. So with stretched tyres and 50mm they should be fine. Just have to go back to streching them like they were with the SSR. Bit of my 180sx history of the colours.
