Spacing out OEM wheels - 07 LGTB

Recommended Posts

Morning all.

 

I just have a quick question. If I have the OEM 18 inch wheels on my 07 LGTB and wanted a slightly wider/fuller stance look, would it be possible to buy wheel spacers from scarles etc to achieve this? 

 

I understand that my wheels may be the way they are for a reason (AWD system/rubbing etc) but I thought I’d ask and see if I can achieve this without it effecting the car in these areas :) 

 

Cheers!

Going through an LVV cert to get slightly more poke on your factory rims seems kinda dumb if I'm honest. Other than slightly increased wheel bearing wear I can't see any mechanical issues with doing it, though.

You’ll easily get away with a 20mm spacer without hitting anything on these cars, the wheel outer edge will still be considerably further from the fender than if you went for a mildly aggressive 8.5 rim. 

But as Boon has said, wheel spacers are generally regarded as a S*** solution

Look for some outback wheels, think they are usually better offset for filling guards :)

 

Mine were 5x100 17x7" +48 offset if that helps

 

Changed to 5x100 18x8.75" +19

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
