Default Anyone clued up regarding wheel offsets ??

the mrs mini is a 4x100 of set which i belive is et37 to 48

im planning on using some 4x100 to 5x130 hub adaptors so i can fit some porsche rims which are et65 front and et52 rear

question is what size hub adaptors would i need and would they fit without sticking out the arches

cheers

About 25 front and 10 rear

I dont think the rear will be possible though as 10mm is thinner than any I have ever seen

PS

As for if they will rub or stick out etc, thats also down to the width of wheel and tyre size, which you havent mentioned

so i presume what ever the mm of the adaptor adds to the cars et

the wheels atre 7.5" front and 8" rear with 195 40 16 all round

to be honest i want them to stick out a bit euro look etc but just the alloy and wall want to keep the tread in the arch

Ah, still fairly narrow tyres then.

Probably want about a 25mm adaptor then for the back and 35mm for the front to get it to stick out but I really am guessing and you are going to have to either try it or ask someone who has.
