I know our cars are 4x100 with a 40mm offset, I think thats normal

as long as its 4x100 i know the rim will go on the 45mm offset might just stick out further

okie dokey


offset=

width of wheel....... divided by two...

8" wheels..... you start from center of wheel and +45 means 45mm from the center point out towards the spokes is where the wheel will meet your rotor....

18x7.5 or 18x8 +45 is perfect fitment.

i have 19x8 +45..


no matter the diameter.. offset depends on width

need wheels PM me.

Thats backwards, Higher number pulls the wheel in

Stock is +45mm on a 6" wheel (its cast into the back of the spokes on the Si wheels).

thinner wheel 6" mean it needs to stick out farther to fill in wells.

19x8 +45 is dead center..

45++++ means it goes farther in wells. farther away from fender closer to inners

45----- means closer to fender farther from inners.


i can fit a 8.5" wide wheel w/ a +40... but thats pushing it.


riley

use offset calc 1"=25.5mm factor 8" wide +45 offset as ur standard.
