Average offset on 17" wheels

[SunBurst-P5]

What offset do you guys have on your 17" wheels...I want to lower my car in the spring when I get new rims...but not sure what offset I have to look for when buying for my new rims.

Sorry for asking again.

I have 47mm offset. Lowered with Eibach Pro Kit. I run a 205/45 tire designation. And of course - no problems....

I've got a +44 with 205's i would suggest going 46+ or 47+

+42 with 205 lowered with H&R's

Amy dear,

What everyone is trying to tell you in their own, quirky little ways is that it depends on the rim manufacturer - the majority swear by the +47 (or +48) offset, while a few have had the +42 offset with no difficulty whatsoever.

Ask for brand names primarily.
