Question on offsets

PG370 · 04-19-2012, 12:52 PM

So I recently posted a thread about some wheels I was planning on getting and finally decided the one that I want. I'm gonna be going with 19 x 9 in the front and 19 x 11 in the rear. What offset should I run? They are concave wheels and want them to look aggressive, also exactly what is the offset of a wheel?

Thanks

thoses tires, those wheels, stock height i would do:

Front offset: +30 to +35 (+30 will be more flush)
Rear offset: +15 to +22 (+15 will be more flush)

GL!

can you remove them youself?

if those are stud-replacement type you can get open lugs, remove the spacers (keep the studs),
and use the offsets i posted.

or add +20 to everything. you'd be looking at sedan application in that case, i think.

So it's a bad idea to keep the spacers?

you will be limiting yourself severely with available options, that's all.

Ditch the spacers and buy wheels that fit properly. There's nothing wrong with spacers, but why buy wheels that don't fit very well?

Don't forget to pick up some hubcentric rings. They're cheap. What wheels are you looking at?
