gatty Posted May 21, 2004 Share Posted May 21, 2004 hey guys, I own a non turbo R33 - i know it's a four stud pattearn and i've been told has a offset of about 114, but I haven't measured it accurately yet etc... my question is would these rims fit on: http://www.speedywheels.com.au/ZoomWheels/...s/HSR_Black.htm I think they aint bad look - 4 stud pattearn but lists a offset of 100mm - forget about these??

browny Posted May 21, 2004 Share Posted May 21, 2004 Offset refers to the where the mounting surface is in relation to the centreline of the wheel. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/41522-mags-and-offset-question/#findComment-851814 Share on other sites More sharing options...

browny Posted May 21, 2004 Share Posted May 21, 2004 gatty Using different offsets will change your wheel track. Your states registration authority will most likely have some regulations on wheel track changes (ie in NSW you are allowed a max change of +25mm overall). The easiest way to avoid problems is to have the wheel made with the same offset as the std wheels. If they are a reputable wheel supplier should do this (if not already part of their range). An auto engineer I was talking to said wheels are the No.1 problem he finds on cars, and most of the time the owner isn't even aware of the problem. It's easy to get wrong, but it's also easy to get right.
