As Eddie said, the bluey struts have a different offset and also use an offset ball joint on the bsae of the steering arm to produce negative offset geometry.

To get the correct scrub radius ( distance between centre of tire and interstection of line between top of strut pivot and lower ball joint) on your rims, you need to use the bluey or skyline s12 style rims to get the contact patch in normal scrub radius territory.

If you use normal rims with this setup, they can feel shakey and a bit stiff on turns.
