Off Set
« on: 17 October 2003, 08:58 »
Hey guys - i'm trying to track down a resonable set of original 15' BBS alloys for my GTI .... I've found a set that have come off a Mazda MX5 so the PCD is correct - only thing is I'm told they have an off set of 45mm.

I know the Golf's usual off set ranges from 32 - 38 mm so think these others would fit ?? I'll got SPAX adjustables lowered 40mm too ...

I can never get my head around if the off set figure is higher, will it push the wheel out or in further?

Any help would be great !  ;D
