Lora_G60 0 Posted March 5, 2006 I have a Corrado G60 lowered 35mil. I want to put 17's on and have been told that ET35 is the correct offset. Is this correct? If so, what size tyres do I need to have clearance for full lock etc? (eg. 215/45/17) Thaaaaaanx! :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lora_G60 0 Posted March 5, 2006 welcome :D think you'll need 205/40/17. et is 35. if you do a quick search you'll find loads of info on this :) :( I made the mistake of buying 215/45/17's (I like rushing into things!) so if anyone wants 4 brand new tyres that size, Federals...I'm ya 'gal! ha! Probably will swap them to 205/40/17's and give that a go!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rolex 0 Posted March 5, 2006 8) nice, i do like em in white, an you cant go wrong with a chunky five spoke. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
catch_twotwo 0 Posted March 6, 2006 Before you go swapping out give them a try..... you might get lucky. If you get rubbing at full lock then either, don't ;) or try removing the inner arm coverings (or cutting them back) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lora_G60 0 Posted March 6, 2006 I have tried the wheel with them 215/45/17 on and the back tyres are rubbing against the bottom housing of the spring and the fronts would just hit my wing if went under a big dip...and didn't fancy having a blowout at 60! (because that's all I do...60...steady away being female and all that! :) Ordered some 205/40/17's and will give them a go! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
