Offset Issue

[ZooYork Fool]

Hey guys,

Just about to upgrade my wheel setup from some 17's to 20's but my wheel offset is going to change from +48 to +45 which means i'll have a -3mm offset? Is this alot and do i need to fix it? If so whats the best way to fix it?

Any info will be appreciated!

Cheers

3mm won't do much mate, should be fine. Will just sit 3mm closer to the outside guards. What's the width? I've run 19x8.5 +38 with no issues, 245/35 tyre.

Im running on 17x235x45 at the moment but moving up to 20x225x30 to keep it all legal.

[sweefu]

245/30R20 is the size you want.

As sweefu has pointed out, the change from +48 to +45 is a good thing and won't be a problem. Additionally you want to run a 245/30R20 if possible. 225/35R20 is OK but in some cases is outside the legal rolling diameter limit.

bumping up an old thread here.


whats the lowest offset i can run on 19 or 20 inch to suit a vy hsv?

[sweefu]

Depends on what size tyre you want to run, what sort of suspension you are running, width of the wheel etc. Need more info

[nasty1]

20x8.5 or i may settle for 19x8s as for tyres well the rims will be a new purchase of ebay but i do have a set on 225/xx/20s in the shed.

stock suspension in the vy but will lower the rear just a tad......


as i have no idea on wheel offsets whats a minimum.

[sweefu]

The majority of wheels you'll look at will be +45 or +48, either of these will be fine. Only few wheels for Commodores will have an odd or lower offset.

Thanks.the rims i looked at were offset to suit later model bmws so its a fair way off the highest i could find was a 38 offset.

Oh well ill keep searching for wheels

Found the rims ive been looking for but in 19inch with 42 ofset would i get away with this ALSO TYRES SIZE 235/35/19

+42 is fine but 235/35R19 likely won't have a high enough load rating for your car.

Yes Pete - aside from some very early 4cyl Commodores - they are all 5/120.

Suggestions...without knowing what you like, what size you need, what your budget is...very hard mate. It's like saying "i need some shoes" and asking for a suggestion...Do you need thongs, Boots, Runners, High tops...how much do you wanna spend..?? what size do you need??....

Definately won't fit mate. Way to wide in the back. BTW - we can supply these wheels and do you a better deal so send me a PM if you'd like. You can run that wheel in a 20x8.5 all round on your car no probs.
