Hi, since my car is 11 years old, I am looking at a new Wheel and Tyre package. Currently, I have the stock 18x8 wheels and the tyres are 245/45/R18. Stock Wheel offset is +48. I was thinking that I would keep the same wheel and tyre sizes but the new wheels I like have an offset of +32.
I am aware that the stock setup has a negative scrub radius but can't find any mention of the exact dimensions. My concern is that if I do get new wheels, while they may look great, they also may negatively impact the handling due to changes in the scrub radius.
Does anyone
a) have any dimensions of the exact stock scrub radius with the +48 offset; and
b) have any experience fitting aftermarket wheels where the wheel offset is significantly less than +48?
