xwroo 348 Posted November 9, 2015 Hi looking at getting a pair of 15x10 wheels on the back of my xw falcon. Would 295s or just stick with 275s. Would a 5" backspace be ok as well? 1 xwroo reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scottly 475 Posted November 9, 2015 Is it standard hight or how low is it from standard? 1 xwroo reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xwroo 348 Posted November 9, 2015 Lowered 2.5in with blocks by the owner before me. I'm looking into getting the leaf springs reset or custom ones made. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ants 6,370 Posted November 9, 2015 I think you will struggle. I've had 275's on 10s under one but it needed a fair push on the quarters with the guard roller to get them under. 1 revhead reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
revhead 1,392 Posted November 9, 2015 Lowered 2.5in with blocks by the owner before me. I'm looking into getting the leaf springs reset or custom ones made. take the 2nd bottom leaf spring and flip it over ,simple cheap and easy ,no blocks 1 xwroo reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xwroo 348 Posted November 9, 2015 One of my mates has 9.5" rims with 295s without the quarters rolled and fit. I suppose it's all in the offset. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
revhead 1,392 Posted November 9, 2015 no itl come down to a narrow diff, as tens wont fit under stock rear guards 1 xwroo reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Menice 331 Posted November 9, 2015 ~9inch rim will pull in the sidewall more on a 295 tyre compared to a 10inch... Hence easier fit Sent from my D5833 using Tapatalk 1 xwroo reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

slydog 7,873 Posted November 9, 2015 This is where a shortened diff is in valuable. 1 revhead reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
