as the name says peeps ive never been sure what the patterns are. any info would be great.

thanks

louis.

t2rew

yes.

they will be 5mm further out though so the front will rub like mad even if they are the same width as stock. if they are wider the rubbing gets worse

rotary_rogers

so in that case some 5 mm spacers should sort them out, am i correct in thinking that.

t2rew

no.

the 5mm smaller offset puts the wheel out to the arch 5mm
if you then put a 5mm spacer on it would put the wheel 10mm closer to the arch. in fact it would probably put the wheel 5mm beond the arch

t2rew

my car is lowered with stock wheels and in some instance\'s the tyres rip out the front arches. if you fit the 30mm offset wheel you will have to get your arches rolled out.

rotary_rogers

ok cheers for the info dude, just out of interest what is the standard offest wheel. also when they say roled out arches do they what does that  entail as im not much of a bodywork guy.

t2rew

35mm
useing a rolling device they roll the metal away from the tyre. there is a small lip that can be folded flat to give more clearance. i used to work with some one that had a roller. it can be done with a hammer though

rotary_rogers

sounds easy enough, when you say metal flap do you mean the one folded round and under on each arch, cheers again.
