mantadoc Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Depends on whether you want wheels to go under a rally kit or a road kit. Rally is wider. Also standard 400 sizes are based on a wider rear axle so not too much help to you to know the offset associated with that set up. Best bet is to do a search, plenty of times this has been discussed on here, additionally you can see what some people use on project cars.

Sorry for already discussed issue, have just joined also dealing with Mantas since 1996. Sure, did a search but without result. Will be gratefully for the hint. Is a difference between road and rally kit considerable? Even do not know what kit I have It looks like that (it is not a picture of my car): To: Rutts - thanx for info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mantadoc Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 If it has a hollow in the 400 arch to go around the fuel filler flap it would generally be a rally kit and wider than road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rutts Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 the off set quoted are the same on a genuine 400 road car with 400 kit and also a gte with a rally kit as same guy owns both motors . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm doesn't make sense as the GTE has a wider kit and narrower axle so the same wheel offsets wouldn't fill the arches as well............... but hey, obviously works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
