offset for rims questions
hey guys looking to pick me up some wheels.
right now im stock suspension but i have the parts to addon.
i have koni sport struts all around and eibach sport springs setup.
havent been installed yet.
but im looking at getting me some 18s.
heres my questions.
- offset? i dont want the tires viewable(to much) on the outside of the fenders.
- the wheels im looking at are +33mm offset
- also 18's fit with a 1.25 drop from springs?
- and will that also effect the offset?
thanks in advance.

- offset? i dont want the tires viewable(to much) on the outside of the fenders.
somewhere around +35, but I've seen some that run pretty crazy offsets of like +5
- the wheels im looking at are +33mm offset
should work
- also 18's fit with a 1.25 drop from springs?
yes
- and will that also effect the offset?
not to my knowledge
thanks in advance.

sounds like you will be fine....how wide are the wheesls and what size tires will you be runnin?...
your offset is fine...with a drop like that you wont have to worry about rubbing....
the ammount of tire viewable outside of the fender will depend on the wheel width...
if you go with 8.5" wide it will lne up flush with the fender....9" will be the tiniest bit of poke....
