    Yes they are:

    Original Equipment
    Front: 17" X 7.5"
    Rear: 17" X 9"

    I was suggesting the ones above that.

    Hi Mike,

    Know what I like about that wheel set?? - - - the rear offset is almost "understated". Granted, the entire set is (technically) well beyond stock, yet looks "proper" and less "after market". The set overall, looks stunning.

    Happiest of holidays to you and family,

    Hankie

    Hi braq,

    What you're pointing out, is a visual effect that's caused by increased wheel diameter, coupled with the narrower tire aspect ratio. And BTW, you're oversized on both the front and rear OEM total wheel diameters. :) So, with the lesser amount of tire sidewall, mounted on a larger amount of wheel, it's the wheel that becomes prominent, while the tire becomes less so. So what's left? - - the same arch space, but it "appears" to be more open than it really is.

    As for lowering ................................ good luck. If we're talking about a 360, we lower it to Challenge specs - - but we're not.

    Cheers,

    Hank

    Hi Hank,

    I am pretty sure that the front is now smaller in diameter than the rear.
    Also that when they were standing next to eachother that the original TRX (240 55 390) was between the 215 45 18 and the 275 40 18 in size.
    Being to lazy to take them off for a photo, using this website
    U.S And Metric Tire Size Information Calculator
    TRX equates to 654mm diameter
    front 360 stock to 650
    rear 360 stock to 677

    I was suggested to use adjustable H&R struts by the owner of this example

    Love the 355 wheels on the Mondi, only problem is then the brake calipers look too small and not up to date.... decisions, decisions...
