the question is how much work in arch and spacers will there be to fit either set. and is it wise going for 17s with a 10 inch wheel at the back.

i have coilovers allready so height adjustment isnt a problem. my job is painter/repairer at a bodyshop so arch work isnt a problem, thanks for looking and any help will be apreciated. thanks again

Hi buddy,

 

I think you would be ok working with the 16" set of wheels but they are quite low in ET, could cause rubbing issues. The 17"s will be horrendous to try to get them to work. Its 10" wide bit that would be a nightmare. You would need some serious arch extension work like what RATTA is producing to fit 11"s. He is constructing boxwork for them. I don't know of anyone who is running 10's under standard or pulled arches.

 

Hope you get something sorted out.

thanks. yea thought they were abit out of the question. 16s are the safer route.
