Hi guys
My name is Andy and im from Sweden.
I drive a 2018 Ranger wildtrak 3.2, 2 inch lift and Bfg ko2 285/60-18
I really want the JR X7 17" wheels, problem is they only make it in et0.
Is anyone running et0 wheels without fender flares ?
If it helps to make the wheel fit without sticking out I'm going to buy the slim fender flares.
Best regards // Andy

If the stock offset it 55 then chances are it will stick out. The best you can do is find out the factory offset of the wheels out where you are and go from there. Hope that helps.

Well if anything you have confirmed that it is the same as the USA spec Rangers. Put simple a 0 of set wheel is going to be 55mm further out. If you dont want to stick out much if any then I would suggest a differnt wheel with a diffent offset. Or perhaps get the appropriate fender flares. That is my suggestion. Also make sure what the laws in your area will allow. Here in the USA they are way to lenient and allow WAY TOO MANY STUPIFD THINGS!!!!

Thanks for your help.
Europe spec is not quite the same, you guys have a small fender flare in plastic, but as shown on my picture we don't have the plastic fender flare, only metal fender.
Wheels are difficult over here, the ones who are nice is in et 0.
In sweden the law dont accept any sticking out what so ever, so i have to stay inside the fenders :)
Hope that a slim fender flare can fix this

Depending on what companies have them available you may still be able to add some fender flares. If it is similar enough I would contact PCOR in Australia since they made a fender flare for the front(or a company they are partnered with did) and I think the Australian trucks are much closer to the European trucks. Some food for thought.

So here it is.
+55 et to 0et is 55mm, 9 inch wheel insted of 8 is about 15mm more then the tire...
So from stock to the new setup the wheels will be around 68mm further out. I run a 25mm spacer today so that means -25mm from 68mm, then I will buy the 32mm slim fender flares and with that I have like 13mm sticking out.
A lot of info but this will make the new setup with around 13mm sticking out :)
