Top ones are mine.. ..Meaning I'm selling them.

[hamradio]

What's the offset on those like?

[TurboMeTroy]

Shit.. -20 maybe? They will stick out and look pretty stupid on anything other than a Rabbit, if you ask me.

[momo]

Nice finds... maybe we should make this the "official" cl wheels thread?

[yerigga]

those rotas are a good deal

[momo]

Anyone know the offsets of those speedlines? Or the Audi alloys?

Or know of any places, other than the vortex, where I can find info like that?

When I can't get to the wheels easily, I find out what car they came from (stock), then plug the model in at tirerack.com and "shop" for wheels.
Once you browse 2 or 3 wheel sets, you'll get an idea of offset +/- a couple mm

Link was bad. Fixed it.

I can vouch for these guys, I had two sets done there. Thinking about taking the intake manifold and valve cover for the E30 down there. Just need to decide on a color. Black is too played out.

FYI, MK1s take like 33-45 ET

cause i want momo to be in a mk1

[momo]

33-45 is for pussies. -33 to -45 is where it's at

Jk, but I would love to get myself into a mk1... however I think a mk2 would be a lot more manageable as a first car, as far as rust and issues like that. And it's not a super big deal if something happens to it, like it could maybe be if it was a mk1. I won't be picking anything up until next spring at least though, I effed myself over by not having a job this summer. I had plans to pick up a GLi Wolfsburg from a dude in Merrifield, but because of my fail-ness I've gotta wait until next spring or summer to pick it up...

kinda. depends on the width of the wheel.

[EWAustin]

kinda. depends on the width of the wheel.

Which is the problem with et measurements in the first place. They're measured from the center of the wheel...

Backspacing measurements make much more sense, but those went out with SAE tire sizes
