Maximum offset

[99GTT]

Hi guys,

Newbie here

Does anyone know what the maximum offset is that I can put on my new toy... aka 6MPS?

I assume from googling that the bigger the offset, the closer the outside of the wheel will be to the guard. What I mean, is that I hate it when you see cars that have nice wheels but the sit like 2 inches inside of the guards, when they could be nice and flush with guards, by the use of wheel spacers, orbetter yet by the right offset wheel.

I am looking at lowering with kings lows, and getting a nice set of 18's, or maybe spraying mine black.

Cheers

Other way around - lower offset pushes the wheel further out. The maximum offset you can use is the OEM wheel offset of +52.5
spacers not a good ideal. Not legal in qld anyway...
+48 and 225 sit out a little further
+45, 8"wide rims and 235 would probably get what you're after with some gaurd rolling to keep things clear...
I wouldn't go any lower than +45, though.

Search is your friend
Discussed often.
Usually ends up in an argument between those that like safe cars and good handling vs. those that only care about looks

18x8 with +45 offset usually means guard rolling time if lowered or carrying weight

18x8 +45 with 235 tyres will fit flush with the edge of your guards

Its about (...........) that much from standard

I"d probably go lower than +45.
I'm running 19x8.5 wide rims with +45 offset but still not sitting that flush with the guards.
I've got 235/35 19 tyres- yes i had to roll the rear guards.

Just went outside, and noticed that there is a big fat lip on the inside of the gueard, does anyone know of people in Brizi that roll guards?
