What arch work have i gotta do to get these wheels on the gte (lowered 60mm) without rubbing and the usual stuff? Is it just a shave of the arch lips? anti rust painted and sealed? help please. cheers boys.



2.0 8v or 2.0 16v... Help!!!

I used to have 7 x 16 (47mm offset) on my gte on my nova gte and it only needed the arches rollin. It was lowered about 60mm.

Ive just put 7 x 18 (45mm offset) and they didnt catch as bad as I thought. Now its lowered on the lowest settin on avo coilovers. Still catches and abit more arch work was needed, but hey.

If u get the right offset u should hopefully get away with just rollin them.

Good luck. It should look sweet with them on.

I've got TSW Imola's on my GTE lowered 60mm. There only 15" but there 7" wide. All I had to do was roll my rear archs.

Gonna be -80mm b4 the summer though :)
