recently i drove into a pothole, the size of a speed hump (somehow the speed hump that used to be there... went missing, no lie) and cracked/buckled my alloy. I have currently got my eye on a temporary set on eBay and was wondering if these specs/numbers are fine for the car. will they fit without rubbing/hitting arches? is it going to affect speedo? etc. (its the offset that gets me)
PCD: 5X100 (i know thats fine) RIM: 7x17 H2 OFFSET: ET 45 CENTRE BORE: 75mm (will get spigot rings) TYRES: 215/45/R17 any info would be much appreciated! --------------------  "whoever said progress was a slow process... was probably talking about me" |

That's correct. I have 7" +45 offset wheels on my car with 15 mm spacers, so essentially +30. The front wheels are barely tucked but the rears could use a bit more spacing. I had to roll my rear fenders.

So if I was to use 10mm spacers which would I use? There seems to be bolt on 1s which are almost 5x more than the 1s that slip over the original bolts. Which ones are u using? (sorry bwt all these questions, interior is more my thing) -------------------- "whoever said progress was a slow process... was probably talking about me" |
