    Default question on offset

    My current set up is:

    tire size: 215/65R16
    rim: 7x16 ET50
    Bolt Patter is 5x108
    Center Bore 63.4mm
    Offset: Positve 50

    I want to go with a 17 or 18 inch rim, how variation in offset can I have, can I range from 45-55?

    depends on the rim width.

    Thanks that site helps, I like the wheel setting out a bit more, I think it will look better.

    since 18" wheels came on the same car but a T6, they should run just fine on my 3.2, yes? no rub or issues like that, will it affect the ride of the car, or is 17 better?

    i have the stock 18x7.5"rims with 235x50 tires on my 2008 3.2 - more sidewall is better for ride comfort - if I had the choice I would prefer 17" rims on my car instead of the 18's
