Wanted RAYS GRAMLIGHTS 57DR 18 X 9.5 +22 5-114.3

[-Luke-]

Long shot guys but does anybody have a set of RAYS GRAMLIGHTS 57DR 18 X 9.5 +22 5-114.3?

I'm about to hit the button to order a set for my F6 but cannot find any solid info about brake clearance.

If anybody does have a set and would allow me to test fit one I'd be most grateful!

cheers

Sorry mispost.

Did you see the set at Up Garage by any chance?

I didn't but thanks anyway. Really need to trial fit before ordering a new set from autotecknik

Live life on the wild side and pull that trigger

You can always swap them with my rims if they don't fit :D :D :D

Just out of interest I thought I remembered the bore sizes on a Foulcan are different to a Nissan which I would guess at that size the 57DR's are from. Half remember a conversation with a bloke with a TS50 and some Enkei rims. Guessing you are all over that anyway.

Yeah they 57dr's are 73.1 and the Ford hub is 70.5 from memory. Not a big issue. Im more so concerned about rear brake clearance as the rear 4 pot caliper is quite bulky

[IanJ]

I just asked a mate of mine who has an F6 and he says "Both sets of my wheels are +30 on the front (8.5"), the Enkeis are +35 on the rear, the Works are +38 on the rear (9.5").

+22 9.5s on the rear will probably rub arches unless it's a ute. Looking at the design of those Rays I can't see brake clearance being an issue."

[Shnoog]

I do have a set of 17x8.5 +30 57Fs that you can test out.

They probably won't clear your fronts but they should on the rear if you want to see how they fit.
I know it's not really what you want but you're still welcome to try them out.

[-Luke-]

Thanks for the info/offers guys.

Ian bf sedan. Rear guards have been rolled and pumped so it may need a touch up but they should be okay. I actually test fitted some et38 enkeis and they touch the caliper. Going by the profile I can find on line and comparing evo and r34 discs offset to the ford offset it "should" clear. But I don't want to spend up based on "should"

Schnoog, thanks for the offer, do you think they'll fit over a 330mm disc with a bremdo f40 caliper? Where abouts in Perth are you?

[Shnoog]

My workshop is in Belmont. I have a kit car with the the fpv 330 brembo 4 piston rears. I will put the rim on the rear tomorrow and upload some pictures.
The only thing is it doesn't use falcon hubs so the offset will be slightly different.

[-Luke-]

Awesome mate, thanks heaps for your effort!

[IanJ]

Luke. He's got the six pot options on a 2014 FG. Not sure what the differences between the models.

[Shnoog]

Here we go. There is plenty of room with the 17s so you should be fine with the 18s.

Champion! I take it those discs are ford offset? As you said there should be heaps of room. Thanks again for your help mate!

[-Luke-]

So based on a bunch of measuring and the photo's Shnoog posted I went ahead and ordered the wheel and thank Christ they fit!

Mobs of brake clearance and offset is bang on.

Now i just have to wait for tyres!

[tinto]

Well, that came together nicely!

Even if the caliper colour mismatch is agitating my OCD.

[-Luke-]

Yeah it makes me twitch just looking at it. Front and rear used to match, then I got offered a set of six pots I couldn't refuse so bam! Shitty mismatch.

Repainting all four calipers is on the nevernever list of jobs I'd like to do.

Tires arrived yesterday and I was able to get them fitted up today. Car needs a touch more low but overall very happy.
