Ultimate Wheel Offset Thread

after searching countless threads - i was thinking it would be sweet if we could get one massive thread where people could post up pics of their cars with their aftermarket wheels and let us know:

What Wheels
Wheel Width
Offests
Tire Size

Not sure if anyone has tried this or if it's a dumb idea - but by posting a picture and putting that info as well (if known) - i think we would have a pretty sweet thread and would help alot of people out when it comes to "what will this offset look like" questions.

plus - you know you love posting pics of your sweet ride!

Ah I see I remember when you had those. The Racing Harts were sick too.

To the OP I think this is a good idea for a thread (if it hasn't already been done). It'll be helpful to me when I get some rims (I'm holding off for now since I'm buying a new place soon).

What drop are you two working with and why is your camber -1.6 fornt and -1.4 rear? Is that to get even tire wear? I am getting 350 H Techs. Whats camber should I get to get even tire wear?

in the pics of the car at its lowest, i have my tein basics maxed out. the rears have the collars removed as well.

just to note that camber is within the stock limits, just thought i would what it was at. i had it set to that amount for handling.

have no idea what you should set yours at. set it to what you are comfortable with. to me i dont mind having my tires dismounted, flipped, and re-mounted to get a longer tire life.
