**handmade** · 10-03-2008, 10:39 AM

hi would anyone have any idea roughly wat offset i would need to run 17x7's on my gs131 crown? i took some measurements and it appears i only have about 50mm to play with from the hub to the lip of the guard that is the rear, didnt check front.
any help appreciated

if you want some simmons for it i believe "the stitt" has some on his 131 that he wants to sell, or he could give you the offset measurements.

cheers

my UZS131 runs 17x8's with 0 offset.

I am after some 9's and 10's with 0 and +10 offset

that surprises me

how did you measure them.

My 68 Crown runs FWD off set +38 on 7inch rims

50mm seems a little low

thats all

GS131, will run pre AU falcon offset. That is all you need to tell the wheel shop.

cheers Chuck.

i measured with a bodgy straight edge and a tape measure in the rain

could be a little more probly more like 60mm was bein a little bit tight arse just to ensure the rims tuck in if i can manage to go that low. pre AU huh. tempe says preAU is 5x114.3 +20. seems as though anythin should fit really. thanks for the info
