Won't clear the disc calipers.

If work is so terrific, why do they have to pay us to do it?

Yes and I had 16s on my VR, but the problem is the shape at the back of the wheel - it needs to be quite "dished" to clear the calipers and I know that those Nissan wheels don't. In fact the owner of that vehicle that I saw with them had to use spacers to get the wheel to clear. We all know that spacers are a big no-no.

An ET of +10 puts the wheels outside of the guards. Some will argue this but I had +20 on 16x7 and they only just sat inside.
