correct wheel off set

[rollaholic]

big wheels on small cars make them look like rollerskates imo. but thats a matter of personal taste.

if you need positive camber to fit a rim, its clearly not right eh? not to mention positive camber will look pretty shit. slip ons is no answer either.

if you are a mechanic you will know do it once do it right is the best way. so save your pennies a bit longer and get something that'll actually fit.

dicking around with camber or any suspension setting to make wheels fit is a bit silly imo (my opinion being qualified mechanic with AVI cert)

NO.

Man i was unaware fitting wheels was such a mission all good points there guys i was going this way as the wheels were cheap and local, ie young guy who sweeps our workshop, as for mucking around to fit them how will fitting camber bolts make it unsafe? i am also a qualified mechanic and wof inspector and see no danger unless is excessive camber and it will also not be staying at stock height, i also have a wheel alignment machine at my disposal so any issues will be sorted before venturing on to a public road, so in saying all that is there any one who has wheels in a smaller size and better offset that i could look at cheers

frig me there is alot of shite in this thread , 17 x 7 has to be 35 offset or it starts to rub on the rear strut , positive camber is bad for stance of the vehicle and how it will drive the back can become quite twitchy and move on the road following ruts , and at 35 offset it doesnt rub on the guards at all , and i can say this cause its my job and i have an ae82 on 17 x 7 and it doesnt rub at all
check my photo on my profile for proof .

What you agree with his positive camber idea?

Getting some negative camber on to get a flush look is different....

Oh lol, no positive camber is gay...

agreed, also doesn't help handling especially on the rear of a fwd

Perhaps hes planning to lower it as well....? camber bolts to offset the change in camber thus reducing excessive tyre wear.....

just sayin...
