    Re: Wheel offset for VE

    I was watching a set on ebay (from the Varrstoen store) which were 19x8.5 +30 19x9.5 +40 (5 x 120).

    I sent them and email but never heard anything back. Maybe give them a call and see if they can sort something out.

    They do a 8.5/9.5 staggered setup that will clear Redline Brembo's, a mate got them for his ute not long ago. The front brake clearance is too close for my liking, at a guess it's about 2, maybe 3mm. Just don't be gay and put Volk stickers on them

    yep they are sh*t with communication. i have tried to connect them a number of times but no reply. and there doesn't seem to be a contact number anywhere.
    nope, volk stickers will not be going on these rims. the plan is to try and get them in bronze, which i think will look awesome with the holden voodoo blue

    Hi, Do you you know what offset these where? I have a set of varrstoen ES2 19x9.5 +22 all round and am looking to do the redline brembo upgrade. I am not sure on clearance though.
    Any body running these wheels and clear brembo's?

    cheers

    Looking at them I'd doubt it given the spokes angle in to the centre although being 22s will help.

    that's what I was thinking. However I have seen a few with the HSV/AP brakes but no Redline/Brembo brakes.

    Re: Wheel offset for VE

    Is the VF the same as the VE? Looking for rims for my VF redline ute, have no idea what will actually clear the brakes/ fit flush.

    The VF is the same - Redline brembo. From what I've seen anything with a dish won't clear unless specified by the manufacturer. HSV AP racing brakes seem to be thinner and will fit a few more wheels.

    Re: Wheel offset for VE

    I put front Redlines on my SSV ute with v2 of the DTM Shine 20" rims which were specifically redesigned to fit Redline brakes. They only cleared by a mm or less, but barely different to the proper Redline rims which a mate with a Redline still had on his.

    The DTM Shines have a reasonable dish on the front and huge dish on the rear. No way they'd take big brakes on the rear.

    I'll dig out a pic when I get home.

    I love the look of these wheels, but im tipping they wont clear the Brembo's.

    Re: Wheel offset for VE

    I reckon they will - no dish and the spokes don't curve in much initially. All comes down to available offsets but if my DTM Shines cleared Brembos even with dish, those should.
