Stock Wheel Sizes and Offsets

[Guest]

hahaha, D1R's look nice

i dont want massive rims but no pizza cutters either

i also dont want to roll or modify guards if it can be helped

price range may vary dependin on what i spend on the legnum

but once again, nothings concrete til the money is in my hands

one last thing, i like the black wheels on the black legnum, the one with red lug nuts, rims were koya i think, they look hot

But yeah drifties, D1Rs or D2Rs would work.

Hey guys, was hoping if someone could help me out here.
My Leggy is arriving in a few days and I have a set of rims I wanted to put on it. However im totally confused with what offset is the right one.
If i put 18"x8 what offset would i be looking at and it i put 18"x8.5 what would it be?
this wont affect the fact that i plan to lower my car as well rite?
Thanks for your help.

This isn't a bad place to start.

For those wheels you'd want around 35-38mm offset.

 

[steveP]

lowering has a huge affect on what offset u should be looking at.

stock height
18x8 +35
18x8.5 +40

lowered
18x8 +25
18x8.5 +30

Hey all just curious as to whether or not these rims would fit 1999 legnum without any dramas

Front 18x8.5 +35
Rears 18x9 + 32

Cheers help would be greatly appreciated thanks

not bad, will need to be lowered a bit.


is your car stock?
do you want stretched tyres?

 

[Azza89]

It's stock atm stretched tyres dnt phase me to much right now but may in the future

Lower car before attempting fitment.

 

[Azza89]

Cheers Guyz I'll look into it

 

[steveP]

Those sizes are pretty good.

 

[Azza89]

So u think those sizes will go on stock suspension or lower it before fitting them???

 

[steveP]

At stock height your car will look slightly monster truck-ish. I would recommend lowering the car at the same time, or soon there after.

 

[unclepaulie]

Lower first




Edit:


re: steves comment: lol like mine used to

Just pulled off a rim to have a look if the offset was stamped inside and to my surprise they're stamped with 'Mitsubishi' & has the diamonds an all...
I've had them off plenty of times before doing brakes etc but never noticed.

They're OzRacing turismo Gts (i think) 7.5 x 17 +38

Dunno if they were ever optioned with the car - or on another Mitsu, but i always thought they were aftermarket...

They might've been the wheels provided when factory Brembos were fitted...maybe.

Hmm it had brembos fitted when it came to Australia - so yeh, maybe!

Anyway, RPF1's going on now.
