I would like to know if FD wheels fit on FC ?

Thank you

 

front - yes
back - need spacers

 

You got it "***" backwards

Sorry couldnt resist after lookign at the pic



You need a 20 to 25 mm spacer in the front.

 

So i need spacers in front and back ??

Thanks for your answer...

 

i would like to know this also. I plan on running FD rims on the back of my car, and am hoping i do not need spacers.

On back you'll be fine. Up front you'll need spacers, 20mm will do. Although most people that do it run the spacers on all 4, just so you wont have a wider track up front than in the back. Ive heard that if your car is lowered though, the tires may rub the fenders up front, but I think it depends on tire brand, what size spacers, how low, etc etc

 

I'm using 15mm hubsentric spacers on all 4. They ran $115 for a pair but they came with longer studs. I'm in the process of put the new studs in right now, so far its been a pain just becasue of the shear amount of stuff I've have to remove. It took me 8 hours (counting breaks) to do both of the rears. now I'm working on the fronts (see my other post)

 

Ok, so if I dont need to run spacers on the back, what size ET Streets can i run before they hit the fender? I think that MT said that that the tire itself could be one inch wider than the rim, and the contact patch was one inch wider than the tire. So its 9" tire with a 10" contact patch. Anyone on here ever run these tires?

Ted, is that info for the front or the rear? It seems to be for the fronts. I just need to know maximum effective width I can go on the FD rim. I can always figure out what spacers i need later.
I would like to go with a 265 or so on the backs, but i hear the ET Streets bulge more so than a street tire. Do you know off hand what spacer size I would need, as well as tire width?
I dont want to be lazy, but i am sort of confused by your site
