Default EK offsets.

Hey guys, looking to buy either a coupe or hatch. 96-00. Doesnt matter to me and I dont really care who thinks which is better lol. ANYWAYS. I was curious to those running lower offset, aka lower than 40 and 45, what the lowest you can get away with on a 7 or 8" wheel without doing major mods. And if running quite low, which mods have you dont as well as some wheels specs. Just looking for ideas generally, info would help, not just pics saying "this guy is low offset but i dont know the offest" thanks in advance............

Well theres not a definitive answer, because you can run really low offsets if you can adjust your ride-height and camber to allow for clearance. I'd say 35 is a good low end just for the sake of keeping good turning geometry and wheel bearing life.
