1.)What is offset, and how does it figure into the fitment equation?

2.)What do I need to do to acheive this "look" as far as the wheel / tire combo go? (I think its a Wald kit) What wheels are those?

 

I believe those are the Volk Challenge.

 

That's an Esprit kit, I believe.

 

Dexter,

the tirerack website has some basic definitions on offset and how it figures into your wheel fitament equation. In very basic (i.e. non-expert) terms offset is the distance in mm between the centerline of the rim and where it meets up with the rotor/mounting surface of your car. You adjust the offset number +or- in relation to the style of the wheel and how wide a rim you go with so that it doesn't stick out too far from the fenderwells.

 

Cool, guys. Great info.

What size do you think those are?

 

Those are probably 19's...and if they are 19's, they're 8.5" wide wheels (as that's all they make in 19")

Based on what offsets they have on their website, I'm going to guess that they're either +40 or +38.

Body kit is DEFINITELY Esprit...good eye Dru...
