    Default What offset for RA28

    Hey guys,

    Going to go shopping for some old school wheels, can anyone give me a rough idea on what offset range would be ok on a standard RA28, standard diff etc etc.

    I'm looking at either 14x7 or 15x7 wheels.

    I've had a search, but can't find anything specific, if anyone has pics of theirs and knows the offset, that would be great too

    Cheers, Matt

    My Simmons were 0 Offset 15" x 7" and still had about 8-10mm before rubbing on the front guards with 205/55 rubber... +25 would give about 33-35mm before rubbing on the front guards...

    (If running 15" x 7" on the stock rear end, then a +25 would be perfect for the rear only...)

    GA28,

    River finally got his B45's onto his RA28 this weekend and whilst I measured the car up for him I sure as shit can't remember what the specs were. They comfortably fit a 16" x 7" front and 16" x 8" rear tho and the rears tyre is a 245/45 16".

    Look for his members rides thread for some pics. His rears were ordered to allow a non-rolled rear wheel arch (in theory) so you could come a little further out if you wanted.
