Default Offset help please!

There seems to be a lot of experienced wheel thinkers here and J, ET, PCD all bamboozle me, therefore quick question to the wise:

Will 8.5J ET 56 front and 10J ET 65 Rear fit?

Would I need spacers etc?

Planning on running 225 and 265 section tyres...

Cheers RL

Hi Mark!

Yup fronts are good but may need a 5mm spacer at most, the rears will want to be around 47 so a circa 18mm spacer would be necessary. If the spacer is anything over 5mm I recommend using longer wheel studs for safety.

Tyres sizes are perfect. Any pics?

Cheers Frank :-)

They're 20 hole BBS GT2s, local seller, and I'm trying to find some more information about these as they are the motorsport design but hopefully more road-useable? Also keen to find out weights etc. Google is coming up fairly blank...

Any one have any info?

You'll be fine with right spacers. Those are sweet!

I would run a 7 - 10mm spacer on the front as I found quite a bit of rubbing on the inside fender liner when I was running 8.5 ET 57

I'm sorry, but I don't see any pictures or anything regarding the wheels, so hard to say what they are.

Instead of starting a new thread can I just ask a wheel fitment question of my own.

Will these suit a NB 964

Front 8x18 ET 52
Rear 10x18 ET 52

Will I need any spacers?

Thanks guys
Jon

Yes those will fit fine if you're running a normal ride height and geo.
I would add a 5mm spacer to the rears to fill the arches a tad more.
You'll want 225 and 265 on those wheels. Pictures when done pls.
