  • New replica wheels

    Can anyone tell me the offset on the new replica wheels? I have the classic version.

    Tried to fit them tonight and can't due to the wheel hitting the bottom of the Koni front shock.

    Looks like a 15mm spacer will be required, maybe more but I am not a fan of wheel spacers

    Has the base of the shock been modded ? sort of squared off

              I've been contemplating getting a set of these, I've bilstein shocks. Does anyone know if they will fit? I'm not a fan of spacers. Have Rondells on at the moment with 235/40/18s with no problems. I'm also running ap calipers so will likely need the big brake version.
              cheers.

                What size tyres did you put on them?

                  I've got the big brake wheel on my car with 245 tyres, konis with the spring cup mod and they've gone on with no spacers.

                          if you compare the offset to say a rondell then the new reps sit 8mm further inboard,so would deffo need spring platform mods or spacers on konis,depends also on the size of tyre/profile

                            Checked this morning and they are 255/35/18 but the tyre sits completely level with the rim so its not the tyre size.

                            Tried with my 5th wheel which has no tyre and the rim still sits right on the suspension cup. I had hoped not to have any issues as my car is standard bar the koni suspension

                              255 35 is the best size as its virtually identical to a 225 40
