Actually on second thoughts - VA get's the biscuit.



Boo Hoo - what a complete arse wipe - FFRR wheels dont fit RRS's with Brembos. Fit a treat on Disco 3's though and maybe fit RRS's with std brakes. So if anyone fancies a nice shinny brand new set of 4 of these mutha's - make me an offer .... RRS TDv8 HSE Rimini

Super - Its worse than you think, this shot shows another wheel that appears to have flown off. And is that a matching wheel on the D3 in the background.



Actually, whilst on the subject of tyres, I was horrified when I took the front wheels off to find the inner edges of the tyres were worn down to an illegal level. Thinks - need to get the tracking checked, and need to check tyres more regularly. RRS TDv8 HSE Rimini

Thanks HBF, - she has been running on 19" RRS wheels with winter tyres on since November (see the rear wheel in that second shot). It appears that the 19" FFRR wheel clears the brembo's width wise (circumferance) but not depth wise (is this what is known as "offset" ?). I suspect a spacer would allow the FFRR wheel to clear the Brembo, but I really don't like the idea of fitting spacers to such a heavy and powerful vehicle. RRS TDv8 HSE Rimini

I think this was asked on FFRR recently... and the answer was indeed to use spacers - they don't fit by default.

Dont see the problem with spacers, but you may need to extend the wheel studs. You are indeed right about it being called offsett.
