I want to get my wheels rebuilt with a bigger offset so I don't have to run such a huge spacer (mine are also 17x8/17x10). Biggest pain I have had with them though is on a big bump the tyre touches the inside of the arch and bubbles the paint on the outside.

Hi Jeff, is that due to ET or are you running tall tires? >25 inch diameter?

Exactly what I just suggested to Michael - that trailing arm link look damn close for ET+30

I like that your sharpie is a perfect match for the tool.....you nailed it!--- now, I'd really like to see some ability to snap on some lego-like block to approximate where the inner wheel lip would be, and even better to approximate the height of the tire.

I love this vid, and it’s going to help me a lot with rebuilding my BBS RS’ (for a 930), to fit my narrow body… but I just can’t get over pickelball.

Great tool… I would definitely re-measure the rear with a rotor installed just to be 100% before ordering the wheels…👍🏻

I run 8s up front on my ST build. ET 10.6 with a 21mm spacer giving a -10 ET. 20 will be too inboard for your wheels. Find a 8 inch fuch and test mount to your front. For rears I’m 9inch with 3 ET and plenty of room to run a 10 mm spacer

Might be a noob statement but tires on rims can throw this out completely. Different tire manufacturers can have different dimensions despite being the same size. Some have rolled edges while some have a square edges. Unfortunately trial and error is the only real way to determine accurately.

Michael - hope you not hit your trailing arm with those 10's at +30. Have a look on modelling that tool all the way around.
