Most run et35 - 32

Escos uses the lower offset, not sure exactly what though.

Depends what width the wheel is too.... makes all the difference. After all a 17x7 in the same offset as a 17x10 will sit entirely differently!

With rolled arches though Sierras can accept way wider wheels than most people fit. Look so much better than the usual 7J ET30ish stuff as well.
