does the offset of a rim make it more expensive?

 

No. But if you're looking for custom offsets, the price goes up. So it depends on the brand/model of wheel you choose.

 

Not in all cases but yes, offsets can affect price.

Which wheel are we talking about specifically?

 

any of the work wheels like T1s or Vs xx or volk sf winnings

 

Rarely.

Prices usually only change when changing finish, diameter or width (as well as construction IE Reverse lip, 2 peice, 3 piece, etc etc.)

Works and volks, NO. Unless they are custom offsets, which volk doesn't usually offer. When Work does you WILL be paying for it. But the +22 and the +12 are going to be the same size as long as they are the same size.

 

well i misunderstood what this guy was saying. i was talking to a guy bout buying a set of used 19 Sf winnings for 2500 shipped and he would refinish them to brand new and powdercoat them to any color i wanted. I just told him i was also looking at T1s and Vs-xx and he was trying to say i wouldnt be able to find a set of those for that price with the offsets the Sf winnings have. apparently he had a set of VS-xx that he sold for 1200 with tires...19s in chrome but the offset was 51!....i guess he was just trying to say the demand for offsets like that are less so they will go for a alot cheaper...and wheels with good offsets...people will be willing to pay more

 

Exactly..

 

What are the offsets?

 

19x10.5 +29
19x9.5 +19

 

If you plan on running spacers those can definitely work, although they aren't needed.
