quote: as said above thats not really gonna work. The way Offset is measured u have to find the exact centre of the wheel and from that point to the bit that sits on ur hub is ur offset. its measured in mm usually. so if you have a smaller offset for eg pugeot is 18 i think, there is more metal inside the wheel so it will sit furthur out.

quote::! 33mm offset and 50 profile tyres will look very silly. Personally I'd put 45 profile on and really, replace the wheels. Spacer makes an offset lower not higher, so you'll never be close to correct even with machining. | |
