will a 50mm offset fit on the TC?

 

depends how wide, the wheel will probably be waaay tucked under the car though

 

17x7.5 50mm offset, with 225/45-17 tires

 

50mm offset?!.....deng. What rims are these?

 

prolly for wrx or vw/audi/porsche

 

SSR competitions. i wanna know if they'll fit before i buy them

 

no one knows if they will fit?

 

please excuse my ignorence but hwat is offset

 

do a search, this thread isn't the right one to ask in

 

why wouldn't this be the right thread to ask in?

 

Wrong thread, right forum, try doing a search there have been a billion threads on the topic of what is offset

 

FYI, we carry the SSR Competition and we do not recommend the SSR Competition with a 50mm offset as an approved fitment for your vehicle. Regarding offset information, please click on the following link:

would i run into any problems with the SSR's? i'm having alot of trouble finding a nice lightweight wheel that i like.

 

anyone?

 

The 50 offset will tuck them pretty far under the car and you may have rubbing issues on the inside with the front wheels ... I don't think it will look that good either! I would try to find something with a 40 offset or less ...
Hope this helps!

 

thanks. i'm having trouble finding anything under like 20lbs with a 40mm offest (that still look good) have any suggestions?

 

i have roja formula fives which are very light 2 piece rims that can be ordered in custom offsets, but they are very expensive.

 

whats the weight on them?

 

i have the Ro_Ja F5's..3 are still in the box...i have 18X8 w/40 offset which are 22lbs..bought them because of the deal i got...going with another wheel now so i put them in the scionlife classifieds for $500+shipping...no takers though..guess $125 is too much for a forged 2 piece these days..i'll probably just ebay them when i get around to it.

 

i'm looking for 17's. i might just go with some cheap msr wheels for now (depends on what the weight of the stock wheels)
