Wheel talk ET 30 or ET 27

[Billy MR]

What is the correct ET for wheels to be fitted without spacers and clear the brembos ?

Et 30 Billy!

If you look at the bottom picture on this thread you will see that ET30 is just right!

Et30 is right but depends on the spoke design.
Rota force/ advan RS like mine is perfect at et 30 but Rota gtr needs spacers to clear callipers

But we are talking from a VI experience!

 

[Billy MR]

I'm talking for a 8 in rota force

Mmmmmm not to sure then billy!:shock: Is the track wider on the VII,VIII & IX?

 

[Billy MR]

I dunno lol, haven't looked into it.

I have seen a set of rota 18x9 ET 30 dirt cheap

Only one way to find out then billy:awesome:

 

[Dannyk]

I can't see you having a problem with an 18"x9 now if they where 17"s i'd say you'd have an issue

 

[Billy MR]

Why would they be a issue with 17x9 ?

 

[Dannyk]

Wouldn't of thought they did a 17x9 wouldn't it be 17x8 or 17x7.5. I ended up with this problem on my sti when I stuck brembos on it. But I didn't ask first an got bit in the ass when put the wheels bk on they cleared caliper but the wheel wouldn't butt up to the hub an inner spoke caught brake. An the EVO an impreza share same size brembos.

No cos I had a vii for 18 months which my wheels were also fitted to not only that the brake and hub set up is still the same

 

[Billy MR]

They do do a 17x9
