pcd is 4.5inches, or, in common speak 114.3mm.

Offset stock is 46 I believe, however, anything from about 35-45 will be fine.

Other thing to keep in mind is the wdith of rim in relation to the offset. In some cases, you may need some guard work

Yes and no. I have just fitted Speedy Cheetahs with a 45 offset. And on Kings lows with 245/45/18's the guards need to be rolled - I am getting light contact with guard lips on full compression. Today I have fitted Ralliart rear discs and calipers and that adds another 3mm to the track. So heavy guard rolling will now be a must.

245 tyres are the issue for the scraping, 235s should of been fine.

Also, i didnt realise that new calipers added track to wheels.

if you had fitted Ralliart rear rotors, the track wouldn't have changed. the hat height on the Ralliart rotors is the same as the standard rotors.

you must have fitted AWD rear rotors which are 3.7mm taller than standard hat height.

if you changed your rims to say a set of 19" will the car sit any higher??

Ye, depends on the size. However, with more rim, less tyre, it often "looks" like there is more space between guard and rim.

Bzzt. I have the Ralliart rotors off the proto Ralliart and discs off same. Seems this is a strange animal with all sortsa unusal bits on it. The solution is a 3.5mm space inside the hat, hence track change.

And I went 245 as there is way more choice in high end tyres and load ratings in that size.

sounds like the proto Ralliart used AWD rotors :nuts: that's messed up.

I know where you might be able to get DBA replacement rear rotors for it ;)

Yeah, from what I gather there are all sorts of strange things about the car which didn't make it to production or which made it to prod but in a different format (like the brakes).
