Post subject:  Rim offset help.

Currently running procomp rims 15x8 with 31x10.5 bighorns. Not sure of offset I can see 22 written on them but not sure if it's an indication of the offset ;/
they are mere millimetres from the leafs.

I've got some CSA magnums 15x7 I want to put on and their offset it N6. Which to me looks like the Inner part of the rim sticks out further from the studholes. 115 mmls where the Others are 105ish

I'm thinking if the procomps are close to hitting the leafs the Magnums definatly will or am i missing something completely.

Do I need to buy Spacers or will they fit?

Thanks
tyron

measure from the wheel mounting surface of each type of rim to the inner edge of the rim and see what the difference in offset is.
without knowing what offset the rims your talking about are its not going to be easy to advise you. procomps come in alot of different types and offsets

yeah that was the inner, i measured. 115 for the magnums and 105 for the procomps.

I was hoping someone has 15x7 N6 to reply and just say wether they fit or not.....

I doubt 10mm will make enough difference to matter

it's less then 10mm away from the leaves :|

Mine rub on the leaves. The worst part about it is a polished spot on the leaf.. nothing bad happens.

a little scrubbing isnt going to hurt on the springs. better than running highly illegal wheels spacers

I'm not worried about the springs,
I'm worried about how much of tyre im going to loose.
that It may not be worth changing the rim.

Mine have rubbed on the leaf for over 12months.. They're all good.
As i said the WORST part is the lack of paint on the leaf. Your tyres will be fine. You have 1mm less offset than me if -22 is your offset.
It will be fine.

if that is full lock there is a good 15-20mm of space there.

your not gonna loose enough of your tyre to even notice.

The worst part is if it locks up on the leaf enough under power to snap your CV, not really a problem without big outer lug tyres like swampers or pedes though.

Rubbing and locking up are very different though.

Mine used to rub on -28's.

Cleaned the springs..

It is a technical rego thing. No part of tyre shall come in contact with anything else.
