Hey guys

Thinking of getting some 18x8.5 Lenso wheels for my Version 6.

I don't want them sticking outta the guards and prefer not to roll the guards either.

Can you guys recommend the best offset I should be getting and if anyone has a pic on how that size rim would look on a V5 or V6 that would be great.

18x8.5 42+ may be close to outside guards so any offset above that should be fine.

I'd get 17s if I were you, look much better on the smaller gc body

Test fit of one of my Enkei RPF1 17x9 +45 wheels with 245/40R17 RS-3's.




(The tyre direction was the wrong way around but I just grabbed the first one off the stack for a test fit, its back off and in the shed now.)

Using 5mm spacers, I ment to use the 3mm spacer but grabbed the wrong ones out of the shed.

It appears I have positive camber so I assume I'll need aftermarket camber bolts?

Is there anything I should know about camber bolts before buying some online?

Also I've read that 2 degrees negative camber and zero toe is prefered by a lot of people, is this going to impact tyre wear or its fine?

Thanks.
