Hey MOMS,
I have a question about the wheel setup you posted on the 6/MS6 Wheel Photo Thread. You said they were Rota Tarmac 3 18 x8 +35mm.
I've been looking at a the ROTA SVN that are 18 x 8.5 +48mm but according to my calculations and comparison to stock speed6 setup, it appears that the wheel lip will project beyond the edge of my rear fenders by about 3/16" and 5/16" at the front. Although your wheels are narrower, your stated offset of +35mm would cause yours to project even further then the ones I am considering. According to my estimate, yours would project about 1/2" beyond the rear fenders.
Could you confirm if this is the case?
Also, when you rolled the fenders, did you just bend the inner lip or did you actually slightly push the arch of the fender outward to cover the tire?
Do you have any close up photos of the tire to fender conditions at front and rear?
Thanks in advance.
