Ferrada F8-FR8 wheels installed

[travish325]

Finally pulled the trigger and bought wheels. I originally picked these out in 21x10.5 ET25 but wanted to be at ET30 so I decided to go with ET42 and 12mm spacers. Needless to say the 12mm spacers didn't work out. So.... Ended up with 21x10.5 ET42 AND still running my 1.25in Bora spacers. Tires are Lionhart 295/40/21.



No rubbing and very aggressive look. I am also lowered on HR springs. Still needs to be a little lower I think to fill the wheel well but overall I'm happy.

Side shot? I have my doubts that there’s no rubbing.

Looks good and the roof rails removed really makes it look even better. Install some graveyard coilovers to lower it more.

Side shot like the last pic? Or you want a different one? I can confirm there is no rubbing even at full lock both ways. It's close but does not make contact.

Like down the side to show the protrusion.

It's pretty much the same as the stock wheels were on these spacers

Anything outside of the wheel arch is too much. Just my opinion

It is a little wide but it's what I could make do for the time being. To get them to sit flush with smaller spacers I will have to get extended lug bolts.

Couple more shots from this morning.

Two pics showing the amount of wheel poke.

And here is a video I made today of full lock each direction and full lock in reverse to show there is no rubbing.

A video driving on the inside won’t show rubbing. The tire rubbing on the felt fender liner doesn’t make any noise. Have someone turn the wheel lock to lock while you watch the back of the tire…it’s probably making contact just before full lock but you might just squeeze by with that shorter than normal tire.

Lol ok. I did already do that when I installed them, I just didn't take a video. But.... For the sake of science I will make said video.

Video uploading now....

I said you might just squeeze by and you do…on level ground. It’ll rub some turning up a steep incline but it won’t hurt anything.
