    Cool help me get these dishuu's on!!! (pic heavy)

    well i got the wheels off carpo yesterday (thanks chris), wed kranze cerberus ii, 18x11j, -5 offset.



    the works that were on were 18x9.5jj, +40 off.

    and ehres how lost they were in the arches



    theres deffo arch work so im not even sure what else i can do with the arches?


    so my bro in law put the tyres on yesterday, theyre stretched a bit but he didnt use the lighter fluid method he just pumped them so maybe theyre not stretched enough or somethin.

    well anyways, the rims when on are sticking out too far as is.
    from the front

    from the rear


    heres what it looked like sitting on them anyways



    it aint possible to run them as is, so how can i get them more flush?
    camber arms will help the top but would need serious camber would it?!

    is the offset too low for my arches? would i be better with a low positive offset?

    do they even suit it?!!

    well man, firstly a low positive offset would be better as it would fit properly, but thats not the point

    firstly what are your tire specs????

    there not sticking out too much so i reckon roll the inner lip, more camber ( you will need adjustable ones oh and toe arms as the camber will fuck up your toe)
    maybe more tire strect(depending on current size) then you should be able to drop it a good bit

    You're getting your knickers in a twist for no reason there dude You're only a few mm off ......... Are you in a position to lower it any more? They should tuck naturally the lower you go.

    Obviously the other alternatives are more strechtuu or camber .....

    as ste said, im not even sure if the arches could be rolled.. a small positive offset would be a better fit alright

    could probably go down a few mil... maybe more stretch would sort it.

    yeh i know, thats why i thought i would get away with the - offset.

    keep em comin if i stretch em more and lower a bit might flush em?

    cheers dudes

    happy you got them...they suit the car very good...as above maybe blow a 235 tyre on the rims and drop the car a bit they should be fine then..may rub a little if you have some people in the back tho..

    They look AMAZING!!!

    I thought the wheels looked sweet on the ad but they suit the car/arches/colour everything perfectly. Im very jealous

    Take some close up arch pice, inside n out and send them to Famous JH on here he will be able to advise on archwork. But with mine the lower it goes it picks up a fuck load of negative camber, so if you could just get the edge to tuck then lowering it a bit might solve the issue

    "its cool i guess, but where are the other 2 doors?"
