man if you used the search function...

I even drew pics up for this once before...

Krisisdog did a job to explain that, but a pic says a thousand words...

post955289.html?hilit=offset#p955289

And for the record the pic I drew shows a positive offset wheel... a negative would have the rim centre on the other side of the face...

Le me know if anything needs clarifying...

Cheers,
Tim

Yeah, I had that part sorted.

The spacers that at illegal are the flat metal plate ones cos the studs will be shorter sticking thru the rims.

The block type ones with studs in them I didn't think were illegal and as long as they are torqued up correctly I've been told they have no issues.

But for the extra $500 for 4 (new that is) I may as well buy some rims with correct offset anyway.

Thanks to all for the info.


No, theyre all illegal.
Extra $500 is a lot to get them in the correct offset, what wheels are you buying?

I'm still window shopping ATM,
but basically I was wondering cos as you may have gathered I thought the territory stockers were bolt on (same offset as EA) and looking on eBay there are a few nice looking sets of 17's goin cheaper than similar 17's for EAs, so I figured I'd suss it out first. Lol, lucky I did I guess.
But now I got it all cleared up I'll just go for correct offset an save screwing around.
