OK, so I finally got my new set of wheels! They are:
Work Euroline Dish
Fronts: 19 x 9.5 + 19
Rears: 19 x 11 + 23
Here's the pics where I test fitted them on to the rears. Before the guards were rolled and pulled.
I've just got the slight fender mods done today and rides sweet, all for wheels fit and no scrubbing except for when steering is at full lock. Will take some pics tomorrow and post up the finished product.

damn thats some nice fitment and stance you got there. cant wait to see full shots out in the open.
where are they rubbing on lock? easily fixable? (BFH? haha)
i dont know if 1st Gen aristo guards are same as 2nd Gen.. but im looking at a bit softer fitment than you due to less width (10 +23 up back). but i really dont want to shave too much off my guards for legal reasons have you shaved yours down or rolled?

Hey guys,
Here's a few shots my mate took with all four wheels now on the car. I still need to lower the car more at the front.
It rubs on the inner guards at full lock. I had the wiring harness re-routed away from the wheel. Guards haven't been shaved, I didn't want to do this as it would weaken the structure and cause it to warp so all 4 guards have been rolled and pulled.
how will 18x11.5 go at the rear with a -15 offset if anyone knows.....dont want to get them if they stick out too far
I don't think these will fit without a few mods to the guards. Chikita's Aristo has 18 x 11 on the rear on a +19 offset and it basically sits flush with the flared guards and they are quite flared, so fitting these to stock guards will definately stick way out unless your game enough to ride on alot of negative camber and basically have the chassis rails scraping the ground then just maybe....
It will look shit hot though! oh but forget about running 295 tyres on it, if stretch tyres isn't your flavour, I'd give them a miss.

275's will stretch a little on an 11.5 width but with just a guard roll, I still reckon they will stick out of the guards. I guess it really depends on how low and how much camber your going to be riding on. But in my opinion to be driving around safely and practically that is correct tyre fitment and proper wheel alignment, I think you will need some flares to fit these sizes.

ok thanks for that.....might have to give those wheels a miss.... _________________
