Looks cool, but the front must be a tight fit. I run 225/35/19 on 19" snowflakes without the lowering kitand it just fits. What tyre size your running? Also have you fitted spacers?

Hey Mate,

Welcome to the OOF and the even more exclusive sub group of 'Meega owners lowered and on 19" Jade- R's!

Nice Car Dude!

rubbing or not rubbing will be down to the offset asmuch as how low it is, especially with non-VX wheels which will proably not run the usual offset.

Are the Jade-R's 8.5 wide? Still needs the backs pushing out further (don't all omegas??)

When I ordered my Jade-R's they were made to fit the vehicle. (I understand that they are only made to order, but that may have been sales BS).
I had to give 'em offset and pcd so they were made to fit exactly.
You are able to have a choice of widths when you order.

Interesting - there had been some sets on ebay for Saab 9-5's at 8.5x18, in satin black too!

From what you are saying you could get a wider rear set up, say 8 front and 9 rear?  ::)

Like I say - the 'specially made' bit may have been for my benefit only.
As SAAB's are front wheel drive they are probably not set up for Rear wheel Omegas (if previous comments about the Irmscher wheels being flogged off by Irmscher UK are anything to go by)

Yes the Jade-R is available as 8.5 and 9 so yes wider at the back is possible.

....and equally interesting is that none of the ebay sellers currently selling the Jade R's list 'em with a 110 PCD.
Seems you can get 'em for just about any vehicle though................... :-?

do you find you have problems withth erear wheels only riding on the inside edge?  My old omega had 17's with wide low profile tyres on it and it rode low, wasn't lowered just worn springs.  after a few thousand miles, the outside edges of the tyres were like new and the inside was down to the canvas because of the camber.  despite wide tyres it only ran on the inside 2" or so.

Nice Omega! like the look of the car but lowering is something that would not be considered, I like the comfort too much.
