My fronts are et45 and I’m lowered about 50mm.
They are 8.5j.
They are 8.5j.
Thanks all, can the wheel be pushed out 20mm via a spacer to make it flush with the wing/panel?
I'd say not. It will catch when the suspension compresses. Plus it would look silly if you ask me. That offset fills the arches nicely.
Your ET35 sit 10mm further in than ET45 so with a 15MM spacer they are only 5mm further out than our ET45 wheels. I guess that 5mm is about the max that you could get away with on an ET45 to get that look that you have. 20MM will deffo not work.
My rears are 10.5j with ET35 so thats probably similar to your rears. My rears deffo fill the arches more than the fronts.

So what's your effective et rating on the rear?
I've been offered some 20in alloys, et45, 8.5j. Tyres are 275/40. I'm concerned that these won't fill the rear arches, anyone running something similar?
It would be 8.5 et20. I have ran 10.5 et38 on the back and still aired out .....there is loads of room on the rear
275/40 is too big a tyre on an 8.5" wheel for a start but just add spacers to fill the arch
Should I avoid buying these then?
Lots of dealers supply that tyre size for some reason but if you like the wheels and they suit your budget, just change to a more suitable tyre when they need replacing..........there is loads of info on tyre sizes on here. You could probably run a 20mm spacer on the rear with those.

Really they all seem to supply 20” 8.5j with 275/40 why would they do that if there to big?
It's a mass produced size due to it being for Range Rover sport so it's cheap, readily available and of suitable load rating. 245 or 255 will drive much better on 8.5j rims.
