Offset...

Do any of you guys know the offset of the OEM rims for a LX pro...........

I am going to get rims soon for my 91Pro, but I haven't decided if I should get 16" or 17" ........
I know that 17" would look better, but would slow me down.....

what would you guys recommend............????

OEM offset is 45mm. I have 15 x 6.5 rims that are 33mm offset, and 15 x 7 rims with 35 mm offset, and only with the Falken Azenis on the 15 x 7s do I get rub, and only in the rear when the tires are new. I have the H&R MX-3 springs, so my car is about as low as you'd want to go (and still have suspension travel in front).

Thanks for the info...

So out of these two offsets, 37 and 38, which one should be the
best for 16x7.5 wheels.......
what about 17x7.5 ???

I am guessing that it wouldn't make that much of a difference ?

Will they rub with 205/40 tires ?


Thanks,

If you're worried about rubbing, more offset is better (38). 40 is probably even better.
