another wheel offset quesiton

alright. i have an ss/sc cobalt and i've been doing some measuring of the wheel-strut-spring, all that good stuff. and for the wheels/tires i'll be using at the track i need a wheel with an offset to bring it OUT, AWAY FROM THE CAR about two full inches. so would this be about a -10 to -20 offset?

anyone?

Yeah, so?

I just figured that since you like rediculous offsets, you'd enjoy that website.

eeeeh, i'ld like to stay away from a spacer as much as possible. although i know for sure it would work with them. i'ld rather just get a wheel that will bolt right up.

Word.

Well good luck. I've never screwed with race setups, only street setups.
