45mm OffSet

[QSX]

on a LC accent...Go or no go???
Stock is 43mm correct? I want these Konig Holes but they are only avaliable in a 45mm offset...:devious:

[MrKevin007]

so basically its impossible. +42 max.

[jerkitt]

spacers? :hmmm:

[QSX]

Tires.com actually list them once you put in your car...
Thought It was suppose to be rims that will only fit on your car. aranoid:
Maybe I'll give them a call...

Dead center of the rim is an offset of 0, toward the outside of the car is positive, toward the car is negative. Basically if you go with a more positive offset then stock it will sit closer to the inside fender causing rubbing. So you willr ub for sure. Make sure you get a lower offset then 43mm with a bigger rim and tire.

Now I though it was just the opposite. Say stock offset is 43mm.
A lower offset of say 40mm sits farther away from the car, somewhat under the fender lip an this is what causes the rubbing.
A offset of 45mm pulling the rim closer(tucking it under the fender) but with a wider rim an wider tire im not sure it all will fit.
With my 40mm off set an 205 series tires my tire is almost touching the strut tower..
Hmmmm....:surprised:aranoid:

Maybe:nervous:

for accents, optimal offset is 40 +/- 2

[hardtech]

I have +43 on my LC. 205 series tire and I can't put my finger between my tire and the strut.

For me it's perfect because it never rub...
