The offset should be stamped onto the inside of the rim.
Pics would be great. Very interested.
BTW: they came off a Celica SX, from what he told me on IRC.

If they've got the right offset for a celica they would be 38 offset.

If they fitted OK on the celica, they will sit well out of the guards on a WRX/Liberty (unless its a 22B).
Other Cars they should fit with a celica ish offset is.. New beetle, and some new Audi's
BTW.. I had some 17x8's made in a 35mm offset.. perfect for ST18x, and if you don't mind running at least 3.5 degrees of negitive camber, the offset looks nuts on ST16x.

BlackGT4 wrote on Tue, 08 February 2005 20:08 | damn, you've stumped me with that question...
i did check all over the inside and outside of the rim for the offset.. i do see some numbers here and there but i can not determine which one the offset might be. i dont really think that they are for the offset either... but tonight, i'll get a few more pics up of the inside of the rim and maybe you'll be able to spot it..
if not i'll measure it manually as StuC described..

just spit out all the numebrs on here.... there shouldn't be that many stamped onthe rim.

Aussie post won't accept it. Do the ring around to couriers to see how much they'll charge.

ok Lance buddy.. the shipping cost is going to be about 150..
thats with no packaging, being sent to metro brisbane.
the lady on the phone tells me if you want to get it bubble wrapped it would cost about another $30-40 dollars.
Now either you can pay for the shipping cost by credit card by calling packsend, or maybe even by visiting one.. Orelse you will have to send the shipping cost to me which I will pay to packsend before the rims are shipped.
So all up you are looking at under $800.
Let me know how you want to go about it and we'll take it from there.
