VS Grange that runs 18x10.5"+41 ET with 285s at the rear, guard rolling was made more difficult by the straight edge of the rear quarter panel. All the inner guard needed was some massaging. The wheels are effectively 18x10.5"+41 (approx.) with VS stub axles, however he runs +22 as he put in shorter VQ stub axles to get more dish. Can't remember the offset for the front but they're 8.5" wide.

Good idea for a thread, surprised this hasn't happened before.

Bump, anyone else have pics and spec to contribute.
Damn VR /VS look sexy dumped...wish the authorities wouldn't be so critical on lowered cars :(
saw these the other day...so tempted but just spent a bucket of cash on 15 inch staggered raised white lettered tyres.....

Id love to see this but in a square setup with flush or poke fitment, would be very original and desirable.

Imo there is no need to stagger wheels on vr/vs sedans at least, especially irs versions. Half an inch poke 215/45s on a 9.5 wide (moderate stretch) on the front no issues, full lock in both directions no scrub or fouling issues.
On the rear with properly rolled guards, no issues even on a live axle.

Im hoping more people out there push the boundaries of these cars.

Love the rolled guards but definitely not a fan of letterboxes.

BTW Love this thread idea.

Kinda missing the original point of this thread, being that these are not modern setups, but variety is always welcome so lets keep it rolling!
