Wow! Amazing slant nose !

marcus · 01-22-2009, 12:41 PM

question??

15x8.5 offset +38 vs 16x7 offset +40 = which one will stick out more on the fender??

Thirty-Nine · 01-22-2009, 12:58 PM

15x8.5 +38 without a doubt.

Granted, the offset is only 2mm difference, but the width is 1.5 inches wider.

marcus · 01-22-2009, 02:08 PM

so width of the rims dont matter its the offset that make it stick out more. so for ex. a 17x8.5 with +40 offset will be the same as 16x7 with +40 offset IN REGARDS TO STICKING OUT OF THE FENDER..is that right..

Conversion: 1 INCH = 25.4mm

example: 17x10 rim is 254mm wide (0 offset for that gives you 127mm sticking out and 127mm going in)

so if you had a 17x8.5 and 16x7 both with +40, the 17 would stick out more. you would need more positive offset to "offset" that lol

well now im more confuse..what the point of gving out an offset..alwqys thought that the distance from the hub to the edge of the rims.

AdeJong 03 · 01-22-2009, 03:50 PM

no the offset is the distance from the hub to the center of the wheel

so a 40 offset means that the hub is 40mm out from the center. a 0 offset means that the hub is exactly in the center of the wheel

this also explains why low offset wheels sometimes have that really deep dish

Stock camber, Here is a pic. I have more I can upload tomorrow.

(These wheels are flush with the wheels well if I install the 1" lip. They poke because of the 2.5" lip thats installed.)
