Hey guys,

I was looking for some advise on the sizing options of convo pros into a Lx Hatch.
I am just about to order some new rims for my hatch, and I have been told by the importers that the 15x10's convo pro's may not fit in the rear of my car. I had the guards cut and flares fitted a while back. I still have the bango diff fitted and intend to upgrade that later this year when my new engine is ready, but run the wheels on the bango in the mean time.

Dose anyone know or have already successfully fitted these sizes into a similar setup with out any extra modifications? (ie. shorten diff)
I also need to know the standard wheel offset for torana rims?

can anyone shed some light on this problem.

cheers,

scott.

Gday mate,
Got convos on my hatch.15x10 on the rear with a standard length
diff(nine inch).went with 5" back spacing and 265's.with really low springs they get pretty close to rubbin but,touch wood,its all good.
went 15x7's on the front with 225's on hq discs.these had 3 3/8 back spacing.
thinking about buyin some 8 1/2" rims for the front cos i have a fair bit of room
and clearance.Will prob keep the same tyre size.
hope this helps!!

How close are the rear tyres to the shockers?

On a torana WITHOUT flares you can run 9" rims, 10's is a big ask, if you bash things around they may fit.

On a flared car, if cut properly you can run 12" rims easy on rear. 9-10" rims on front.
