Happy new year everyone!

Just after a little advice on offset if possible, Im looking at buying a set of alloys and a set have come up for a very good price however i think they may be out of the question due to size and offset etc so i thought i would check!

They are replacing my standard 19's and are staggered 8.5x19 ET35 on the front and 9.5x19 ET32 on the rear, I get the feeling the fronts will be fine but the rear may be an issue?

Any input would be great

Jim

Easy answer, just use the site below, put in the spec of your current wheels and then put in the spec of your new wheels and you can see the difference.

Once you know the difference you can go measure the gap from your current alloys to the outer edge of your wheel arch.

My 9.5-20 ET 36 poked just a little lip, but the whole tyre sat inside the arch. For ET 32 you at least need to roll the arches, or idiot camber
