Hi. I am really enjoying this car. Pleasantly surprised.
It has the 16" black steel wheels, which I don't mind, but I need rubber and 1 wheel, so might as well get new all around.
. I know the bolt pattern, but some wheels have offset and backspacing. What is acceptable.
Example 17 by 7.5 with 45 offset and 6.02" backspacing. What is acceptable?
. This car I believe has TRD springs from factory and is a 1"-1.5" inches lower than stock.
One last question, what is this "lip" people are talking about. I was wondering why it seems fairly important.
Thanks for any input.

 

Here's a good explanation video of what offset it. Backspacing gives you the same information but from the back edge of the wheel.
