Title: offset question
Post by: bis13 on July 04, 2007, 04:42:56 PM

can anyone tell me the offset for a 126 (alloys) ? and how much you can go either way ? ( its normally about 5mm ). will a offset of 46 fit or is it too far in and will foul the suspension etc?

hi mick without seeing it in real life am crap,if it does foul the arches just space it out would have thought 20mm max would do it,if it does ever exceed the arches just stick standard wheels on for mot unless you want uncle toz to come round and make the wheels fit lol  :twisted:

Hi Mick.The offset on my minotaurs was quoted as +28mm when i bought them :shock: . That should mean 28mm of extra metal behind the wheel bolt facing to push the wheel further away from the drum. For more info on Minotaurs, you can reach KN Wheels on: 01952 614402. hope that helps mate.

its all getting very confusing , i know that a cinquecento can take 35 to 45 offset and i have cinq alloys on one of my cars the alloys i am looking at are 46 so working on the cinq dimensions they are only 1mm over , i know the higher the offset the closer they are to the suspension .
