Hey guys, I dont know if there is already a thread on this but I am in the process of buying new rims. I want 16's or 17's nothing to big. What I need to know is what the maximum amount of offset I can run on the front without having to buy a spacer. And what the maximum amount of offset I can run on the rear is because I know the 2 are different. I would like to spend a little extra in custom wheels then to buy spacers and have to pay for parts later on.

If anyone knows I would appreciate it a ton!

 

lol it depends. what width rim are you going with? every width requires a different offset. for example an 18x8 +25 is not the same as an 18x10 +25. yeah the offset is the same but the fitment is completely different.

use this for wheel and tire sizes:

use this if you decide to run a stretched tire:

So I am probably going to run 16x7 what do you think is the lowest offset I can rock with clearing the front calipers?

 

You should be more worried about what the lowest offset you can run without poking like crazy. Our calipers are pretty small.

The most I would run for a 16x7 is a +10 offset. But why are you going with such a small wheel? Are you trying to save weight?

 

Okay yeah, and 10!! Thats a pretty deep rim, and no I just dont really like bigger rims

 

I mean, don't take my word for it. I think that will work but make sure you do your own research and measuring before you go and buy something.

What wheels were you looking at?

 

I was excited when I saw the new Borbet A's in a 16x7.5 but they dont have our bolt pattern and I dont wanna run adapters

 

why such small wheels? what size tire do you plan on running?
