| Post subject: | Wheel offset question |
Excuse me in advance for knowing nothing about wheels & tyres. Would anyone know if a wheel in the size 15x8 with a -19 offset is going to cause big scrubbing problems for a raised sierra coily (50mm body/40mm springs) when fitted with 30x9.5 15s? Would I be better off getting wheels in 15x7? Would I be better off with a -25 offset? Might get em from the U.S, but if I get the wrong size it would be a small disaster. |

-25 15x7's will be fine for a 30x9.5. 15x8's are not required. You may have to fit some bump stop spacers if you get scrubbing, but thats childs play. |

What if the wheels I really wanted only came in -19 & 15x8, would that be no big deal to get them even though they are not ideal? They are very b-ling but thats the only size in suzi stud pattern. Or I should go 15x7 with -25 cause that is better suited to the car & tyre? If 15x7 is a must i'll just get sunnys. Where is the best place to get sunnys in Sydney? |

i have 31 x 10.5s with 15 x 8 rims on a inch offset mine scrubbed on the bumper which i have now taken off and a little at the back end which has been beaten in, with 30's you should be fine man, and i cant see 15 x 8's being a problem, especially if you plan on going bigger tyres in the future jesse |

i don't think that a 9.5 inch wide tyre would be all that good on a 8 inch wide tyre. |

wouldnt you need more than -19 on a 8" rim to clear the chassis? maybe not on a coily |

7" would be betterer for 9.5" tyres. I have 31x10.5 on an 8" rim with -23 offset and my tyres touch the spring by a bee's dick if im really having a go. |

If I was to want to put a 31x10.5 on instead of a 30x9.5 would it still fit 15x7 with -38? Rock crawlers might be a lot easier than importing. Desert rats look ok too, but there is no sizes in 15x7. |

If that is the wheels mentioned in the post I read from July last year then I think I've worked it out. |
