No one has ever cracked a 5 lug 6UL.

A few have cracked the early 500kg rated 4x100 wheels, which were discontinued in 2017.

Challenge accepted.....?

Just kidding. Placed my order last night and I'm really excited!

I was asked on FB so I will post it here as well. These will easily clear AP Racing Sprint calipers. Of course, per the comments above, you will need a bit of a spacer in front to avoid rubbing at full lock so tons of room available.

Ok, I got my 6UL on today.

Looks good! 17x8 or 17x9? Spacer in front?

17x9 5mm spacer in the front

Offset?

Any particular reason for the 5mm spacer up front?

48 offset. Spacer in the front so it doesn't rub at full lock

Thanks! Would you say this is a better offset compared to your +45 RPF1s?

Scubadriver · 02-28-2022, 10:31 PM

I don't have RPF1 (on my BRZ) for comparison, but I am very happy with the +48 fitment with stock lowered camber and 245s. With a bit of camber adjustment 255 would be no problem in rear. You will need a spacer up front regardless. 7mm seems pretty good with about 2.5 degrees and 245s. Could easily put 255s in front.

Data point. 2hrs at palmer today, so far zero signs of rubbing.

949 wheels with 255 v730. 24mm drop, - 2.1 camber with stock arms. 9k spring rate.

Code Monkey · 05-20-2022, 01:28 PM

My guess is that there is no chance the Radi-CAL CP9660 will fit (with maybe 15mm spacer)?
