Stoney85 Member 29 Member For: 13y 1m 19d Posted 19/10/11 08:38 AM Share Posted 19/10/11 08:38 AM I plan on running a decent set of offset rims on my ute (yet to purchase)If I have to flare/pump the guards I dont mind, I like that style of look, due to one of my past cars being a drift spec Silvia, never liked the sunken rim look.

If they sit outside the guards, good luck keeping the fuzz away! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That and the one directly below it. Edited 19/10/11 02:56 PM by winstor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to be clear a lower offset would be +12? or over 30. These come in +12 and +22 I think. I will have to ignore the varrstoen rims then, too wide for the sedan unless they do another offset. Might just paint my xr8 rims black for now lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winstor Member 611 Member For: 15y 9m 1d Posted 20/10/11 11:46 AM Share Posted 20/10/11 11:46 AM Lower offset would be anything up to 30. Higher offset would be anything over 31.18x10.5 +22 will clear inside, but you will have a lot of poke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
POMME2 New Member 21 Member For: 13y 3m 16d Posted 20/10/11 11:50 AM Author Share Posted 20/10/11 11:50 AM Sorry for being so noob to the aftermarket wheel game but, what do you mean by poke ? So If +22 will clear inside so will +12 but I assume +12 will stick out the guard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winstor Member 611 Member For: 15y 9m 1d Posted 20/10/11 04:54 PM Share Posted 20/10/11 04:54 PM (edited) 18x10.5 +30 will clear inside, yet will stick out from the guards. Any offset higher than 30 will not clear the inside, and anything lower than 30 will stick out of the guards more.18x10.5 +22 could work provided you have some decent negative camber in the rear and can pump your guards.
