when people say you have got to have the right offset to stop rubbing is it the offset of the wheel or tyre
cos my tyres are
195/45/15
so would these rub with a 60mm drop??

it is the offset of the wheel, basically meaning the larger the number, the further into the arch the wheel will sit.
That tyre size is correct, but for 60mm, your looking for an offset of around ET45 -49

the offset is founf on the inner of the wheel and should start with ET.....the closer it is to et45-49, the less likely it will drop
