Guest redseven Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 Whats the law (NZ) on have a offset that makes your tyre/wheel sticks out past the gaurd? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thminiman Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 aparently its not legal (shouldnt pass wof) but its not a particularly stressed point, most, but not all wof places wont even notice it... depending on how much the tyres/wheels stick out.

RT Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 it is legal under special circumstances.. I belive you have to apply for a special grant etc. Mainly for hotrods which don't have guards.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dreadedretard Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 My mates dad had a T-bucket and they gave him a grant on the point he was in a hotrod club. Which i didnt get at all.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speedyrr Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 I've taken some extra pics just for you redseven http://www.fotothing.com/speedyrr You can get an idea from whats on my car. I'm running 195/60/14's front and rear. The front tyres are right out on the limit as you can see from pics. I've tried to take the half-car pics looking down the tyre line front and back. The rear tyres are about 40mm in from the outermost point of rear guard. For your interest the original tyres were 155 or 6.15/13"s factory. The mags are 14 x6 on mine I think and on the front have just enough clearance on the front for guard outer and suspension inner. I might pull one off to get the exact mag dimensions and offset etc for you later if you want the extra info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 So is it just the top of the tyre? Like can your tyre/wheel stick out say 30mm but the top be pushed back under by camber at the top, and the bottom pretty much remaining where it is?
