View Full Version : Whats the Offset
How's everyone doing?
Just got a beezer, the standard steel wheels are crap and must go!
Does anyone know the offset for these standard ones and what the offset will need to be for 195/50/15's
Any help appreciated http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/tongue.gif

Thanx flapper
Out of interest what would the price be for a Rubbing kit - 3 door.
In the accessories booklet its about £75. Went into Renny's @ Tonbridge and the bloke said its changed to around £100 is this so?
Thanks

Thanx for the answer
Would i have any problems running 7x15 - 195/50 with 40mm drop http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/rolleyes.gif http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/eek.gif

accessory wheels are 6.5 * 15 wouldnt 7j be a bit wide for 195 ???
we use 7*17 on the leon with 225+235's ????

Flapper: Thats what I was thinking but a lot of advertised alloys in 15" size are 7" wide.
I looked on tire-rack and most 195 tyres say that 7" is the maximum width. Iam thinking that by "stretching" the tire its gonna reduce the sidewall ratio to below 50 (195*50). http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/frown.gif http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/rolleyes.gif
Main concern is that the tires won't touch any part of suspension on full lock with a drop of 40mm http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/confused.gif

Flapper, correct me if I'm wrong but does the Ibiza Cupra R have 7x16" wheels running on 205's?
Are you saying that the Cupra Rs wheels can take upto 235's?
