    Default XD, XE, XF Falcon wheel offsets

    Hi,
    Just chasing the offsets of the above Falcons.
    Figured there would be some Ford nuts among us that would know....
    Cheers

    Generally around zero

    What are you looking at putting them on? I've used various Ford wheels on various Toyotas a few times and it's worked alright.

    Just looking to see if the Simmons I have will scrub at all on a mates XE.
    I need to work it out on paper first though as I don't have access for a test fit.

    How much room under the guards for movement either way?
    I'm guessing a fair bit....?

    Rears are 17x9 with a 100mm backspace.
    Fronts are 17x7 with a 128mm backspace.

    Reckon they'll fit ok?

    Cheers....

    Fronts will sit in further than factory, rear will sit further out. You sure those measurements are right? Would give you over 50mm difference in offset.

    Definately sure on the measurements.
    They were built for my old AE86 that had a different diff and different front hubs, that's why the offsets are wierd.
    So they will fit, but not perfectly....?

    Will depend on tyre width, but likely to hit outer guards on rear and rub suspension on the front.

    Stock size for XD-EB(??) alloy wheels are 15 by 7 with +6 offset. Any tyre shop should be able to look it up to double check though.

    Thats what is stamped on my brothers wheels, from his ED V8 which is supposed to be the same as earlier models right up to AU where it went to a more FWD type offset (around +35 or +40).

    6" Wide 14" Dia +6
    5.5" Wide 15" Dia +11
