XXR 18x8.75 +20

How far will I need to pull the fenders and quarters to run these?
Is pulling them that far possible?
(Im not worried about messing up the paint, as i need lots of body work anyways)
Im thinking no more than an inch all around and it should work, i just wanna know
if pulling them to clear the 20 offset is do-able.

I plan on running a 235/40/18 on them



thanks guys!

because if 35mm is flush on our cars. 20mm is 15mm out more. 15mm to inches. is about .6 of an inch. so is .6 of an inch all i will have to pull them?

gonna be lowered on anything?

if u try to pull them that far it will just crumble or collapse? i just had mine rolled with a slight pull to give me clearance with my 18x9.5 +30 5mm spacers up front to put it @ +25

the quarters will sooner or later collapse. they are not strong to pull them out really far....... get the 35mm and run a small spacer or have fun pulling your hair out trying to get a nice pull.

My 8.5 with 35mm offset is flush, with maybe a wee bit of poke. That's where I got my number from

camber helps make aggressive offsets fit

if they can be pulled that far without messing the quarters up beyond repair im fine with it.
just if they would buckle too far where i would need new ones. i wouldnt do it. the car needs dents taken out of the quarters anyways
