Okay, this is a first for me so here goes. I'm currently modifying my 1985 Rx 7, GSL-SE from the ground up. Big juice (13B, Turbo, BIG Street Port, Slotted Rotors, Micro Tech, upgrade Clutch/Flywheel, etc....all in all I'm looking at 350hp.



I have no understanding of the offset measurements, albeit "pos" or neg" and it has been explained to me a million times over! I'm in the midst of purchasing 3 piece rims, but I am in search of the precise offset.



My 3 piece wheel is "retro" the Work Equip 03, and the size I'm going with is 15 x 7" in the front, and 15 x 8" in the rear. To see these rims go to www.worksuperwheels.com, scroll to Work Equip 03, and you'll see them (mine is the Black cut clear). These rims have a lip ranging fom 2.7" - 3.5" depending on the offset. However, prior to ordering it I need the offset and believe it or not I'm having great difficulty in getting the correct offset specs.



Can anyone help me with the appropriate offset? Any assistance will be genuinely appreciated.



Sincerely,



Yardi
