Alright guys im just wondering if anyone can share their experience with wheel fitments. Im looking into getting a set of wheels which are 13x8 et20 and wondering if anyone else is running a similar size and if you've had any trouble with this fitment? Ta!

Oof they look close! They look damn good though! I reckon theyll be ok, im not going stupidly low

What wheels do you have that are 13x8?!?

Also Site how well can you turn the wheels? Have you checked to see if they rub on the inner wall when turning? Unless you're running a lower offset...

I only ask because my 15x7 38mm offset required spacers...

I haven't got them yet hoping to collect them Sunday. They're RSL Cults

they go lock to lock with no rubbing...well from what i remember! but i want to fit wider tyres, and the rears poke out a bit more than the fronts though so I will be spacing the fronts to match the rears anyway...i will get a photo when im up at my garage next....i will drop you a message anyway in a bit hope your trip back was good and your settled back in the states!

here is my setup, but it 13x7 et10 with tires size 165/65. and there is no problem with inner wall on turning

still waiting to see these 13x8 wheels 

and with a 20 offset that might cause rubbing issues, i would think... also depends on tyre fitment...

i used to run some 13x7 star mag wheels with a 10 offset might have been 20... memory it getting foggy, i also don't remember the tyre sizes... here's a photo

Mine (with some photoshopped lowdown) but it's 15x6.5 I think, Watanabes. Not sure the offset actually it doesn't actually say on it

That sits fantastic! Lovely body colour too! I'm definitely leaning towards 165/65 I think!
