Wheels

OK so capri wheels stick out too far with the GTS bodywork. They are ET19 IIRC. I assume that if I buy a set of sierra alloys (ET35-38) that they will sit under the bodywork and not stick out past the arches?

Just need some confimation before i spend £400 on a set of wheels....

Cheers,
David

How much do they stick out by?
My (poor) understanding of this is that a et 38 will stick out by 38-19=19 mm less than an et19.
Is that enough?

Hi David.
I've got ET38s on mine and they are fine under the GTS rear arches.
I'm running standard Sierra width DeDion.
The only concern would be if you are buying wheels with "spokes" that are convex by more than about 25-30mm. They may well give SVA probs.
