Sierra offsets?
Im looking at getting so new wheels for my drift car,
Ive been looking at some old school revo looking wheels which are 15x8 et0...Will they catch on my cossie kit/front bumper etc with it having 0 offset?... if so what are the best offsets to look for?
I dont want to spend a shit load to find out i cant even use the damn things lol like i have with my banded steelies

id say they will probably catch
i had et8 pug wheels on and they were a mile past the arch
only thing i could think of is using escort cossy hubs, which should bring them in a fair bit??
P.S what are the rims on that 4i^^^?

well tbh i wudnt go any lower than et20 offset on a 3 door and if its for drifting id say 15''x7'' would be your best option especially with the 24v, anything wider than 7'' and they tend not to slide as well and end up damaging diffs

im running a welded diff ,, My main problem is the front end catching the arches.... i want to avoid this but also run some decent stance/offset wheels...
I was thinking 15x7/8 fronts and 15x9 rears but dont know what offset of the wheel is best, i dont want them to sit in the arches too like you see on 99% of 3doors

so say i go for a set of:
Fronts 15x7.5
Rears 15x8
Could i run spacers to help width/stance?
and also what would be best tyre sizes to run up front? rears im not too fussed with as they will be getting changed every couple of laps

9x17s can be fitted to a three door , its only a mod to the front bumper bracket ,
quite simple really ,
dont forget , if its a drift car shouldnt be that much drama to mod the car to suit the purpose its intended for
