dickstar Posted July 25, 2005 Report Share Posted July 25, 2005 Going to buy new wheelsBBS MK3 anniversary split rims but four stud!! Sweet as a nut (see my last post)The offset on new wheels is 45 and my paces is 38! does 45 mean they will sit further in the arches or stick further out???Need answer for morning if any one can help?Cheers Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfbr Posted July 25, 2005 Report Share Posted July 25, 2005 7mm closer to the inside of the arch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob-Teg Posted July 25, 2005 Report Share Posted July 25, 2005 I think they will be 7mm further out from the arch style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigz™ Posted July 25, 2005 Report Share Posted July 25, 2005 I also think they will be closer into the inner wing.Or you brake calipers which ever you want to look at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob-Teg Posted July 25, 2005 Report Share Posted July 25, 2005 which means you can get a 5-7mm spacer to sort the problem style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />Eibach do some i would think,Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dickstar Posted July 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 Off to pick em up early next week!!Half the problem I am having with my pace's is that they sit too far out of the arches!! Origional wheels where a 45 offset so these should be back to standard!!Will take a little while to get them done but they should look great!! Going to have the rims mirror polished and the inner slate grey or gloss black with new chrome bolts and 40 profile tyres!! Then going to lower car by 40 mm so they sit better!!! If I get skinnier tyres and lower profile it should elliminate my current rubbing problems!!Cheers for the adviceTom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
