12391, wheel offset question
Posted by 97ESi, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
okay, so i'm looking at some enkei rpm2's (forged bortex 17x7 @ 16 lbs ea!). anyway, discount tire has them available in two offsets: 35 & 38 hb. the cool thing is that although they retail at most places for $400 or so, discount has 'em for $220.

which one do i get w/o having the wheels extend past the side of the car? i hate that look!

You don't have to be concerned about them sticking out. Be more concerned about them hitting your suspension b/c your offset is not enough. I agree w/ Logic3. Go w/ the 38. I have Enkei's in 17X7 w/ 40mm offset. Fits perfect.
