lower offset does not make handling worse,if anything it makes it better.You increase the track of the car which is good.the bad thing is that you'll feel the car a bit softer than normal and you'll eat the bearings at a slightly increased rate which is not that tragic... | |

doesn't having et37 mean having your wheels stick out more, hence more track width, hence better handle, not worse :boggle: | |

Ive got ET37 there ok now, was a lot of scrubbing at the rear, but ive cut the metal arch back, and bonding the arches on at the mo with tigerseal, then gonna file the arches back, should have enough clearance :D | |

the further you go from manafacturers offset the less good the handling will be if you really want the wheels that bad then give r-tec a shout. | |

the handling is fine as i have had them on the car already. I want to keep these rims as i have fallen in love with them and thats the only offset they come in. I am thinking about also having an engineering company take 5mm off the back of them to make the offset 43. So that should help a bit. What do u all think? | |

dont fit those wheels they are completely the worng offset. why bother handling will be shite and you can fit ET45+ 17"s with no arch work and have good handling! | |

Hey folks. I have been told by SG Body Worx that they can make my 17" by 7" et 38 rims fit my Corsa B. They think that if take off the plastic arch and cut the metal away then weld it again, then stick the arches back on (tigerseal or whatever) that it will give me enough clearance. Anyone know if this is true and if it will work? Also n e one got pics of this done. Cheers. Also anyone know what kinda price i should pay??? |
