let just say i was goin to buy 16x7 slipstreams for my lude what offset do i need if i want the tires to be flush with the wheel well im goin to get Falken Azenis 215 45 ZR 16?

 

16x7 is pretty beefy. What are you using them for?

 

a little of everything... mostly for street but also to use at the strip and maybe on a road course

 

anyone know the offset?

 

Stock offset is +55. But you'll need something different if you're changing your wheel width. I can't remember if it's lower or higher.

 

I've been told for a 17x7, a 45 offset is good.

My guess for a 16x7 would be around a 45 offset.

Lets hear what the gurus have to say.

 

yes +45 is perfect... can go 18x7.5 with a +45 offset and fits just right..

 

OT but....where are you in Scottsdale? I never see any other Ludes around town or at the track besides me and my buddies.

 

If your offset increases, the closerto the chassis the wheel goes and vice-versa. So, when guys get aftermarket wheels, they get lower numbers than stock (55) to compensate for the wider rim (i.e. 7" width) when turning the wheel.
