Was told 9 inch is too wide!
 
I was told that i can not fit 9" wheels on the rear of my FC TII. But there are guys running 10's on the rear. What Gives?

If i get 9" on the rear what offset would be best without it rubbing? :confused:

So not true. Look for a +35-38 offset and you'll be great. Or you can just contact me and I'll help find you some wheels and shave some dollars off your purchase.

Well you'll run into issues over 9.5" in width, without rolling fenders. But there's room to play. Just tub the rear. hehe.

I have the biggest you can reasonably fit on a stock FC. 17x7.5f 17x9r. Not sure of the offsets...

ARD T2 03-15-02 02:10 AM

Reasonably you can fit an 8" up front and a 9.5 in the rear with the heat shields removed from the muffler cans. Hehe, I guess I have the biggest. 225 up front and 265 in the rear. I know guys with 275's but we're talking rim width.

There's a lot of other guys with these fitments too.
