just get a better offset?

maybe somehing lower? +20? +0?

Do you even understand what offset means, and how it relates to the position of a rim on a car?



Ummm - yeah - of course I do. There's no cars about wearing 5x100 hubs that need/use an offset less that +35mm though. Besides, if I push the wheels out much closer to the guards and lower it, I'll get guard-wheel contact through gutters and stuff. Any bigger offset puts the inside of the rear wheels in contact with the rear struts, coz there's only about 8-9mm of clearance with 6inch wide rims.


It's not a problem I'm having with engineering or anything, it's a problem with getting a handful of wheels brought in from slack-arsed manufacturers. It seems I'm the only person in the country after 89-99 Celica wheels, so I'm getting kinda sick of this whole process of finding something I like, making sure it's made in my size/hub pattern/offset, ordering it, then being told the manufacturer won't make/machine a set and ship it.



The simple solution I've come up with, is to ditch the Celica and go with the crowd. R33 Skyline here I come ! !




p.s. Anyone want to buy a Silver '90 celica?
