rim question

[4age20v]

is it possible to make a 45+ offset rim to a 50+ offset rim ?

as the rim on my car is just sticking out by a little bit.

cheers

In theory you could get 5mm skimmed off the mounting hub, depends on the wheel style though.

^^^^^Correct

[4age20v]

so if i could skim 5 mm that would make my wheel 50+ offset ?

and if so where can i get this done?

cheers

Why would you want to do it? Is the wheel do wide?

Most people with higher offsets try space them out, not suck them in?

[DrRubber]

it can be done but it depends how much meat is on the backside of the wheel as to how far you can go.

is it a torneo ?

that depends on the rim width

[MarkE]

Rim width will also determine in what offset will fit a car.....

cheers for the reply guys.

i have 16x7 45+ offset with 205 55 r16 tyres.

i know i can change the tyres but ... im very poor at the moment.

but now thinking maybe i should get 205 55 r16 tyres instead.

[DrRubber]

huh 205/55/16 on an itr.......thats way to big.

no wonder it rubs....is it 96 or 98 spec ?

[4age20v]
