    question guys, cause oldcorollas has already answered half my question (what PCD are KE20's), but what is the offset for a KE20?

    aaaaaaaaaand while Im on a roll, how exactly would you measure offset on a disc braked front end?
    Just that my Mazda 1300 also has the 4x110 PCD, but I have no idea about its offset as it has coil overs, aftermarket brakes blah blah. and I am curious about whether some wheels I have will fit on the KE20 I've just bought.

    umm.... well, if i vaguely remember...... RX7 series 1 wheels have a little too much offset.. like about 5mm too much backspace....

    if you have the whels, and you have the KE20... jack the bastard up!!!

    mesure the backspace of the rims and then let us know if they fit or not, and the distance from rim edge to the KE20 strut.
    oh, and also size and width and offset of the rims you have... even if they don't fit...

    as a data point, 808 stock steelies definitely fit.

    To measure your wheel offset -
    Pull the wheel off and lay it face up on flat ground.
    Measure from ground to the hub mounting face (call this A), then flip over and do the same (call this B, make sure this is still to the same mounting face). Add A and B together and divide in half (call this C). The difference between C and A is your offset, If A is more than C the offset is positive if less its negative. You need to be pretty accurate with your measuring though.
    Or just take one to the tyre shop to do for you.
