anyone have pics of a 40 vs a 45 on a g3 teg?
I'm looking at rota rims and I want 16" C10s ... but it dun look like they come in a 40mm offset. Only the C8s apparently come in 40. I've seen c8s on tegs ... and they look perfect ... flush with the fender just like I like it. Anyone got pics of a 45?
thanks!

 

A +45 offset wheel will be 5 mm closer in to the body of the car than a +40 wheel. Since the main clearance issue with these cars given the typical wheel fitments is fender rubbing rather than interference with the shock/spring, you actually want to run closer to a +45 offset.

 

Thats tru but is a 40mm offset not fine? ... is it the fender clearance a real issue?
I've run a set of 17" OZ superleggeras with a 37mm offset and that was fine. A range of 37-45 seems big for one car. I personally hate the way rims look when tucked in the fender. 40 seemed like a reasonable comprimise where 45 ... I thought ... were more for EXTREMELY lowered cars.

 

It's only a difference of five millimeters, I don't think it would be really noticeable when just looking at the car.
