Hi all,
I've done a little more homework and established that I actually have a Spanish D40 that has factory fitted 17x7 inch wheels with a 30 offset fitted with 255/65/17 tyres and a 2 inch lift.
I've also learnt that I can get the 17x8.5 Fuel Hostage wheels with an offset of 25.
Correct me...
Hi all,
Is the sidewall of a tyre legally allowed to hang outside the body of the vehicle or does it also have to be within the vehicle?
I have been told only the tread pattern needs to be contained inside to be considered legal. Is this correct?
I am looking at selling 4x KMC Monster XD778 20x9 inch wheels with an 18 offset.
The wheels have been fitted to tyres however never driven on. Its a long sad story however if you are genuinely interested in purchasing them please message me. They are all in mint condition.
Thanks for your reply's thus far guys. Really appreciate it.
According to the VIN it is a 2011 D40 STX bearing a VSK prefix so to my surprise it looks like it was built in Spain. That being the case does anyone know what offset that means the factory fitted 17 inch wheels would have?
Its a 2012 D40 which I believe makes it a Thai build. Correct me if I am wrong but I believe the offset on the stock 17 inch wheels for this model is 25.
Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone had fitted 17x8.5 Fuel Hostage wheels to a D40 with a 265/70/17 tyres? Did you have any problems with the wheel and tyre sitting outside the guards?
The factory fitted 255/65/17 wheels are on 8 inch rims with a 25mm offset. The 17x8.5 Fuel Hostage wheels have...
I tried this set up with an 18mm offset and found the wheels to sit about 14mm outside the guard. Is that what you found or did you find a way around the problem? What size offset did you use?
Hi Robbo,
Did you have to do any mods to fit the 285/65/18 wheels on and do they sit within the guard?
Do you know what offset your rims were fitted at?
Thanks in advance.
