Wheel Offset Question
Wheel Offset Question
Alright I've done some searching on here already so I just need to figure something before I buy these new rims I want but don't wanna make a mistake so would this work for my 04 Coupe with 18's Size: 18" x 7.5" Offset: +45mm
Bolt Pattern: 5x 100/114.3 (5 Lugs) Thanks

Yup forgot to mention I have the Brembos I asked the tire place I do deals with by my work today if that offset would work and he said yes but I just wanna be a 100% sure
why a 7.5, are you just concerned about looks- not judging but that is tiny for an aftermarket rim. If your gonna drop a grand or two atleast get a 9'' wide rim, it will pay for itself if you sell them down the road.
Um I don't know haha they're just rims I really like plus for $525 all together brand new, it's a good deal. They're called Drag wheels if you had heard of em ever
never heard of them. but I wouldn't get them there probably heavy as F and weaker(cast) than the oem rims. for what its worth wheel weight is multiplied by 4 for rotational mass so if each rim weights 10lbs more that translate to 160lbs, or having a body in the trunk. BUT for under 600 what can you expect. if you like them go for it. I'm more of a go than show guy so we got different goals.
if you want a cheap, good quality rim that's under or around a grand check out enkies, there light too. some people will hate but I don't think anybody needs to drop 4 grand on rims(very easy and I've seen guys drop 10k on rims).
search for a little bit and checl out some other rims, I see you only got 4 posts so you might find something you like more

Yeah I can see where your coming from, I'm actually in between both but def like performance over looks, rims just always add that touch tho so I may just think about getting the OEM sport ones I can get them for $425 in black with polished lip. I just wanted something out of the ordinary

No!
7.5" wide is too narrow and that offset is way too high.
That is a sedan offset for an 8.5 or 9" wheel on the front and 10" on the rear.
You need a lower offset for the coupe.

look in the market place for ideas...most coupes run anywhere from 9 to 9.5" front with rears 9.5 to 11". offset in the mid 20s and into the teens, some even lower. with brembos you need to make sure the "disk or pad" will clear brembos or bbks. just to give you an idea i have a set of rims on order, 19x9.5+20 (r disk)and 19.10.5+20 (0 disk) and im thinking of adding spacers to give it a more flush look. i have an 04 with brembos lowered 1.5"

Don't do it. The stock 19's would look better.
I wouldn't do anything less than 9" fronts, 10" rears if I were going aftermarket. Hell, I wish my GTS (9.5 fronts, 10.5 rears) were 10f/11r
