Backspacing question

turb0mik3 · 10-23-2011, 08:12 PM

Does anyone know (or has ran) an offset/wheel size to where the rim or tire is close to the back strut? I want to see if I can run a 18x12 in the rear with this new widebody. I am running a 18x10 et15 in the rear so I calculated the 18x12 to be at the exact point on the outside as my 18x10. It would be an 18x12 et40. Now I am just worried about the interior space. Sorry if this doesn't really make sense.

That should fit. I ran 11" et20 on my E90 LCI and had a good amount of room on the inside. I'd guess I had ~1.5" = ~38mm. You might want to talk to Tee212.
