PAG 15 wheels!

[BAS]

Ok I've been busy with tape measure trying to work out the off set's to order for the PAG's.

My current setup is:-

Image split rims

Front 8x15 ET -14mm
Rear 12x15 ET -26mm with 9mm spacers so -35mm

There seems to be some confusion regarding the Hawk Coffin Spokes ET measurements, but what I would say is that if a possitive ET was used on the front the wheel rim would run very close the top ball joint, with an ET 0 the clearance on my car using 4 stud hubs and Thema Turbo disks would only be 2-3mm to the ball joint cover and approx 6mm to the joint.

I don't know if the 5 stud conversion has a different hub face position to my set up, could someone with the coffins on measure the distance between the wheel rim and the top ball joint on a Hawk to confirm my findings.

Hi,

the ET measurement for the coffin spokes are:

ET -34 (12" rim)
ET 10 (8"rim)

5 stud coffins are ET0 and ET-50 as stamped on the wheels. Not sure how accurate these figures acually are as I measured the rear rim and worked it to out be ET45. Will double check.

I agree with Graham, Hawk wheels are- Front ET 0, Rear ET -45.
Roin Technologies wheels are- Front ET 7, Rear ET -36.5,
TMB Racing are quoted as- Front ET 21(?), Rear ET -32.
Not sure what is going on with the TMB fronts. All are listed as 8 x 15" Front, 12 x 15" rear.
Roin also do a 9 x 15" ET -14.7 & a 10 x 15" ET -25.

With the rear ET -45 for the coffin's this would explain why I can't fit my Leada struts. with 345's and the ET -35 the tyre rubs the strut body.

I have several sets of Revolution wheels of different ages - all 8" with ET0. On the front some need 10mm, some 5mm and some no spacer to clear the caliper!

Thanks to Chris Deering for letting me take some measurements off his Hawk front 5 stud hubs and his coffin spokes, the hub dims match with my car but interestingly the ET marked on the inside of one of the spokes says ET -1.5, it's a bit difficult to confirm this with the tyre fitted but from the measurements taken they did seem to have an ET -1.5.

This seems to match with my findings so I think I'll use an ET -1.5 for the 8" PAG's.

Just need to sort out the ET for 10" Rears now.

Hi Craig,
my current setup about the TMB Racing is Front ET 19 and Rear ET-34 the ET make on order!
with Michelin TB15 Front 18/60/15 (215/55/15) and Rear 26/21/15 (295/40/15)

BTW, to be on order by "group4wheels" for Marcolino Prtotipo Stratos PAG 8 & 9 x15 front ET 0 and rear ET-12

Calling all round arch grp4 car's, if you fitted 10" rears what ET did you use?

the rims for Marcolino Stratos are arrived now and
i am speechless that looks fantastic, thanks to Jonathan
