Quick question about offset

[BBV S2K]

I think i'm going to buy the enkei 92 +38 because i can throw them on without having to roll my fenders etc etc.. & if i ever want to widen them a little i could simply throw a spacer on em & roll the fenders that way.. correct?

yes... and Camber doesnt wear tires.. toe does... U can run all the camber you want and if toe and alignment is good you wont be needing to change tires every 2 monthd

thats not exactly tru for the most part if your toe is dead on u wont wear the hell out of your tires but if your rear wheels look broken because ur running so much camber your still gunna go through tires alot quicker then u should.

Allright guys thanks for all the info.. i'm pretty sure i'm goin to go with +38 offset just for the simple fact my car is gona be more of a "street" car.. i've always been more of a function person rather than form.. i want my car to be able to have all the handling capabilities, but still look nice/flush/clean & bein able to run on the street & track... LMK if anyone else has any suggestions.. thanks again ctv

if your going to run a space,dont race the car or beat on it alot spacers are okay for normal driving,not beating the fucking shit outta the car every chance you get your sheer off the studs like nothing

you can slam the fuck out of your car if you wanna do it the proper way and get extended top hats to make the front suspension still perform up to par,and i wouldnt run that rim combo with out a proper camber kit either its harder to get perfect setup with oem shit,not a whole lot of adjustments your better off getting the camber kits its gonna save you stress and problems in the long run

by running all the camber you want, I meant a normal 2.5+/-

not that stupid sideways shit... but you are correct

Offset is the relation of the mounting pad to the centerline of the wheel. Positive pushes the pad out towards the face of the wheel and negative bring the pad away from the face of the wheel. Fitment is also determined by width also. You need to take both into account when properly fitting wheels. Also offset of a wheel is not a determining factor to the vehicles camber. That is all in the suspension geometry. And as others have said, toe will kill tires faster than camber. Even in extreme circumstances when I ran -14 degrees on my Infiniti, the tires will last a decent amount before camber wear is an issue. So I would not worry about that.

Thanks for helping me better understand fitment etc etc cuz i really am a noob when it comes down to that type of stuff

I don't see anything. Sorry. I am assuming it is a picture?

yeah for some reason the picture wouldn't show.. but i think i am going to go with +38 offset, just a safer route for me to go on account i'm dropping my hatch 2 1/2 inches.. plus if i want to go any lower the +38 offset will give me a little more room to play with without needing a camber kit.. thanks guys for all the input..

Weird.. I can see the pic even from my phone...
