Fc Turbo 2 Uk ( 10x18 & 9.5x18 Fitment )

Hi All ,

I have just purchased a UK FC turbo 2 and wonder what i would need to do to make these wheels fit

I have 2 x Work Miesters S1 10x18 et43

and 2x SSR INDY500 9.5x18 ET13

I know iam going to have probs with the front iam thinking of the 9.5x18 fro fronts and the 10x18 for rear would like to know how fare there going to stick out by or would it be better the other way round 10s on the front

Thanks in advance
SSR's

Work Meisters S1

Fronts should be okay, but the rears needs like a 12mm to 15mm spacer to get them fit...

There are guys who claim they can fit a 10.0", +35 back there, but I dunno how such a wheel can fit...
8.0", +50 is a damn tight fit - maybe 6mm max of clearance; if we extrapolate that to a 10.0", it's a 10.0", +25 maybe down to a +30...

10" wide +35 offset fits perfectly out back with a 275 tire, a 285 sometimes rubs the trailing arm.

a 10" wide +43 wheel like you have might rub the arm but it depends on the lip deisgn and the tire choice. you may not need to run a spacer but most likely will need a 5mm to 10mm spacer to cleare the trailing arm.... unless you beat it (dent it) in the right spot which is highly UNrecommended.

awesome wheels man, those are sick. (and ummm, whats with all of the unrelated 240sx pics? edit nevermind I see it was your old ride, very nice, looks great~!!!!)

the fronts will clear fine, you definitely want to run aftermarket wide front fenders for clearacne over such a wide wheel with such a low offset.
