    What offsets are you guys running on your wheels?

    Hey guys, i m looking to change my stock wheels out ASAP and i was wondering if any of you are using and extremely aggressive offset (low).

    I have a set of 16 inch Kosei K1's that are about 14 pounds a piece. Only problem is that they are 32mm offset. I m installing a JIC coil over kit as well so i will be lowered.

    Just wanted to get an idea of what you got going and how hard im going to have to hit the fender with a bat to get them to fit

    damn, 32 offset. ouch. I don't know if I'd go lower than 38. But I don't have any aftermarket rims.

    Yeah, thats what i m thinking as well, but dam, there is so much dam gap between the fenders and the tire it just may work. I guess i ll just have to try a 205 first and see what i can get away with.

    Wheels spacers will do the exact opposite of what we need here.

    The lower the offset, the more the wheel is pushed out towards the fender.
