So i'm wondering when standard ET is 29, what sizes can i use, i'm guessing nothing under 29 as it would hit calibers i think???
So from 29 to 35 ?

Anyone know this??

Thanks

BG :)

Depends on the width of the wheel. Also depends on spoke design.

Your post sort of confuses me. Anything under 29 would mean more room in between the wheel and caliper.

Now you confuses me, haha, the more offset the more away you are from calibers!
From centerline and out, is ET
So the more out the wheel go, the more space you get for calibers... so my car oem ofset is 29, i must be able to put from 29 to 35 ish on it, i would think?

The lower the offset the further the wheels go toward the fenders.

So i should look for 29 and lower ET's only, else they will hit my breaks, right?

A lot has to do with what width wheel you choose. For the rear you could go from a 18mm to a 30mm. The front could be from a 20 to a 35. If I can help let me know.

Cool thanks i got it figured out, looks like when i put smaller(225/40/18) tires on for rear drifting, im better of getting as little ET as possible, to get the wheels up to the wheel wells, winder better handling.. :)
