off set question

[GT_lenny]

so i measure from the face of the wheel to the rim?????

 

what should it be for a rwd OSF??

[over_head_cam]

Measure the width of the rim in mm, and halve it.

Then measure from the back of the rim to the back of the mounting face.

 

The difference between the two is the offset (off set from centre) If the first number is the largest then this is a negative offset and the other way round is positive

 

Depending on manufacturer and type of wheel, RWD offset is normally between 15 and 25 ish.

 

 

I'm sure I've written that down right

soo- overall width is 180 mm halved is 90mm

 

distance from back of rim to back of mounting is 65mm

 

distance from front of rim to mounting face is 115mm

 

so my off set is- 15mm???
