18x10 et 51 in the rear?
Hate to ask this question because I normally am quite good at figuring out wheel fitments but I'm just having a brain fart I guess or getting old I know I've ran 18x10 et 47 before but I can't remember how close they were to the oil line.
Thanks for the help

Kinda what I was afraid of . These are et 51 with a 7mm spacer (et 58 without) and I believe 7mm is the largest I can go without extending the lugs. O well, it was going to be a whim purchase anyway, guess Ill save the cash. Thanks!!

I thought 18x10 et 50 would fit without a problem. I thought there were some people running et 50 on here. I put mine on and they wouldn't even seat on the hub without touching the oil line. I was prepared and had 3 mm and 7mm spacers just in case. The 3mm was on the money.

My rear BBS are et 51 18x10 and clear fine. I run a 275 rear and the tire kissed the oil line so had to flatten. Rim does not hit.

So your 10ET47 is your question.
Here is 10ET50 in detail ...

Stock lugs are 45mm from the bottom of the head to the end of the threads. Add whatever amount of length for the spacer. Done.
If you were closer to CT, I'd do it for you cheep...

[QUOTE=sml;13176962]You dont need to tell us the diameter. it is pretty much irrelevant.

If he didn't say 18 someone would still want to know.
Also, like someone else mentioned, rear camber is going to be the deciding factor on et fitment. People running an et in the low 40's most likely have their negative camber maxed out. People who want -2 or more or rear camber will need to adjust et accordingly depending on wheel width to prevent oil line rubbing.

Here's a great website to help visualise the difference between wheel fitments http://www.willtheyfit.com/
