Splitties for me are all about getting as deep a dish as possible :)

I gather that you can get 9.5J on the back and as you need zero caliper clearance at the rear due to the design of the disc, they'd be lurvely and deep!

Seem to recall I paid about £1850 for a set of 17" from them a couple of years back for the GT6 which were 7J front with 205/40 tyres and 9.5J rear with 245/35 tyres, will finish that project one day! :lol:

This is when I was running 18x11 rear on the Rieger, but now I've gone an inch wider to 18x12

Image

This is the front 18x10 on the Rieger. Not much dish cause of the size of the brakes

Front 17x10 on Msport
