Might get a set of rims for my FC. THe front are 17X8 +27 offset and rear are 17X9 35+ offset. ALL 114.3 / 5
I did some calculations using the backspacing of the stock wheels and look like the rims should fit with no problems, spacially in the fronts. Any comments ??? |

i would say..... get the rims, and if dont fit....... ghetto roll the fenders

STOCK 16 X 7 +40mm offset
|
The rear should be good, but the fronts will stick out very far. Go with +35 in the front as well.
|
lemme try and post some numbers for you to measure
|
WHEEL 1: 16x7 +40
Dist. hub from centerline: 40mm Dist. inner lip to hub: 128.9 mm Dist. outer lip to hub: 48.9 mm WHEEL 2: 17x8 +27 Dist hub from centerline: 27mm Dist. inner lip to hub: 128.6mm Dist. outer lip to hub: 74.6mm WHEEL 3: 17x9 +35 Dist hub from centerline: 35mm Dist. inner lip to hub: 149.3mm Dist. outer lip to hub: 79.3mm TO MEASURE: WHEEL 2: 17x8 +27 is: 0.3mm further from the strut 25.7mm closer to the fender lip WHEEL 3: 17x9 +35 is: 20.4mm closer to the strut 30.4mm closer to the fender lip Remember that there are 25.4 mm in an inch. Disclaimer: Please don't use my calculations as a bible, I may have messed up somewhere.. (I doubt it, but hey.) |
Damn, some one went calculator crazy.. Good info on the size and conversion factors though.. Maybe with some more info in here we can have this topic pinned..
