That's pretty cool. Anyone have any idea of how far a +45mm offset will put these into the wheel well?

I like the Specs on em, but they just seem the slightest bit off to me. Maybe its how the spokes are curved?

pretty pricey, when/if i do decide to go lightweight, centerline has better prices and they weigh a tad less too.

those wheels look sick, my only question is, this wheel will be 16mm closer to the strut tower. When you put some tires on there, are they going to clear or rub?

that's what I was hinting at. A 35mm offset would put the inside of the wheel only about 6mm closer. I think that would work.

wow, that sucks. What kind of tire? How wide of a rim? and was it only when you turned the wheel? I'm getting ready to put 26"x10.5"x16" e.t. streets on mine and my wheel is a 7.5" wide wheel with a 38mm offset. It should only be about 2mm closer to the strut tower. Do you think I'll rub?

We ran the 8" wide Traklites on the White Sedan Project Cobalt with a +45mm offset and they worked great even with a 1.5" drop.

very nice....I wonder if the 45mm offset is enough to clear for the ss/tc with front brembos? if so...I'm definately going to have to save up or possibly charge these bad boys and swap them over when I trade up....

tune, catless dp, and 3" catback makes 380hp/ 425tq ftw......GM tuner source . com...GM made a new drift spec solstice with stock internals and put only those mods on...and that was the result....on stock internals and it runs fine...so I actually think direct injection is good since you can turn up the boost to an extent without having to upgrade injectors or pump....anyways thats off topic....plus, I want to get rid of my "cops come get me" red car and the brembo's are just nice.....
