thinking about getting these wheels, what do you think? and they are a 48 offset hows that going to look? 18 x 7.5

 

Wheels are alright. Seems like there are alot of black 5 stars out right now though.

In regards to the 48 offset. I would definatley pass. The stockl wheels are 45 so these wheels would tuck in even more! I would look for 35-40 offset if I were you.

Best of luck!

 

Yes I definitely agree with that ^^. I just purchased rims,but they only came in a +35 offset. I was concerned that this would make the wheels stick out from the car too much, but its flush with the fenders. I would recommend sticking to an offset of +35- 40.

 

35 offset = unhappy wheel bearings.

Such is the price of vanity. Ask the folks with failing wheel bearings running +35. I'm not going to mess with my suspension geometry just to have my rims look more flush.

But that's just me.

 

the following factors contribute to advanced wheel bearing wear:
-very low offset wheels
-low profile tires
-added rotational mass (heavier wheels/tires, big brake kits, etc)
-driving on bumpy or uneven roads
-stiff suspensions
-hitting curbs or potholes

the worst case scenario is the wheel and hub will separate from the car while in motion. you are 1000 times more likely to lose a wheel from loose lug nuts.

 

Wish I had this info prior to purchasing my wheels, but too late...plus they look great anyways!
