What is the correct offset for wheels.
Hello all,
I am going to get new shoes for my 05, but have looked on a few sites for wheels and I am confused about offset. I am looking for some S-style wheels which can not be deep dish. I want 18x10 out back and 18x9 in the front. Looking at all the sites I have seen different offsets for the front and the rear. How do I know what the correct offset should be?
Two different wheels both 18x10.
Wheel 1: backspacing 7.27"
offset +45mm
Wheel 2: backspacing 6.38"
offset +22mm
Then for the front wheels 18x9.
Wheel 1: backspacing 6.32"
offset +36mm
Wheel 2: backspacing 5.95"
offset 24mm
Wheel 3: backspacing 6.95"
offset 50mm
For tires I plan on using: front 255/45/ZR18 rear 285/40/ZR18

Go with wheel one for both. Wheel three on the front will sit farther in that the stockers, which already sit far in enough. Wheel 1 in both cases will bring the lip nearly flush with the fender.
