Tutorial on rims needed.

by **Down2TheC** » Fri Jan 26, 2007 6:01 am

There was once a neat post or link to a reference on offset for the Gen2. Can't find it though. Any junior archeologists wish to help dig? I'd like to get something in Gen2 tutorials section that helps with allowable specs. (like the tire size tutorial but for wheels) If the post I'm thinking of can't be found or isn't sufficient, someone with the knowledge should create one. (please)

In the meanwhile, anyone know if I can roll with these and if it would mean rolling fenders or losing turning radius to rubs?

19” is 19x8 +30 mm offset (F) and 19x8.5 +33 mm (R)

I'm actually running 19x8 with +35 offset and I'm not rubbing at all. BUt! that's because I'm not lowered...if i lower it my back would be totally clear but my front is a lil questionable because right now it's so flush with the fender. The front should be more of a concern for you if you're going to go +30.

I use 2 tools from 1010tires.com

Wheel Offset Calculator
http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp
I use my current setup to compare with 18X8 +40 offset

Tire Size Calculator
http://www.1010tires.com/TireSizeCalculator.asp
To figure quickly what is the overall diameter and other measurement.

These are the tire size that fitting more the OEM setup and also have the best choice available.

225/45R18
225/40R19
225/35R20

It may help I think.
