Req info on wheel measurements
« on: 02 February 2007, 23:17 »
Im looking to buy new wheels, So what i've found are revolution wheels are 8jx15" either ET10 or ET0. Need wheels to fill G60 arches. At moment using ats cups 7jx15 ET 20 and filling arches. Arches have been pro cut on front and rolled on rear so all thats ok. Which ET size would be best to fill arches you think? Kevin

Sorry slick ment my cups are NOT filling arches :cry: There is a good inch from wheel to arch, Also at rear about 10cm between wheel and arch but not yet fitted G60 arches on rear so will be even more room to play with.

ET10 should fill the arches nicely I think, but you'll need archwork but since you've had this done it should be fine.
I have ET28 7j wheels on mine with 16mm spacers on the rears which I think works out to ET12, and it rubs at the rear over large bumps and with 2 passengers in the back.
