Please Help 20mm offset 18 inch 8 wide rims – would they fit

[swift5_8]

Hi Guys
I looked over the huge wheels thread for ages and could not find / understand if this would work.
So I got these wheels for they are 18 and 8 wide but could not find an off set so bought them anyway and once I got them I calculated an offset.
23cm wide and the bit of the wheel that bolts on is 9.6 cm in (using straight edge so its pretty accurate)
So (230 / 2) – 96 = about 20 due to using a measuring stick and a peace of wood for a straight edge.
20 matches some weirdly stamped number at the back too
So do you think this will fit or will the rub against suspension or should I ebay it off a sim sure I can get my money back as these are very nice rims
Please let me know what you think

Measuring a wheel like that isn't going to be accurate. Just bolt them on and see where the outer lip is.

do the same method from both sides of the rim, and then work out the offset.

i tried with a set of rims, and i was pretty much spot on the actual offset.

8" +20 will require some guard work at the front.

I put them on and it looks a bit like a mexican look - sticks out by about thumbs with so its can be used but i am not going for that look so ill sell them off when Krud will hand out the dollar next month
