If you think you know better, go throw the wheels on your lancer, then get your camera out and create a thread about how your car is now a mobile death trap for you and your family!  happy days :cheers:

QUOTE (newsky06 @ Jan 18 2011, 06:47 PM) ok, i missed a bit in there. rims he wants is off a BA falcon, which is RWD and the wheel will have a RWD offset. you can't put RWD off set rims on a FWD car as they wont fit. he needs a FWD offset rims Sorry mate but you are a long way off there. Driveline has nothing to do with what wheels fit what. Things that differ/matter: Width Diameter Offset Stud pattern What do you think happens when you rotate tyres? suddenly you have RWD wheels on the front??? |

QUOTE (newsky06 @ Jan 18 2011, 07:22 PM) u are a fuck tard. falcon rear wheel drive (RWD) lancer front wheel drive (FWD) the falcon will have the WRONG FUCKING OFFSET to bolt on to a front wheel drive car. simple end of fucking story. I am a fucktard? REALLY? Do you even know what OFFSET is? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Offset_%28wheel%29 It has been said in this thread that OFFSET would be the only issue, and a member has provided information that both of these vehicles have +40 offset. Whether this information is true or not,is not something I can comment on. |

Bingo! You're on the money there. Perhaps if you said 'FWD cars tend to have a higher/lower offset than RWD cars, this will cause *the above*' Instead of 'RWD wheel wont fit beacuse it is a FWD.' Clear as mud! |

Clear as mud! front wheel drive tend to have higher offset. maybe next time i will go into great detail insted of just giving the simple facts. |
