starquestbd Posted March 24, 2003 Report Share Posted March 24, 2003 i would like to put a set of 17" rims on my starquest, preferrably american racing torq thrust II's in a custom offset. anyone know the max wheel widths and tire sizes i could run with 17" rims and the stock ride height? how about offset to keep the rims setting out atleast as much as the factory ones (not tucked way back under the fender)? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustPaus_88TSi Posted June 22, 2004 Report Share Posted June 22, 2004 The SHP 8 and 9's are... 8=-10 9=0 I'll have to look in the FAQ's for the 7's and 8's offset... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P_I_L_O_T Posted June 27, 2004 Report Share Posted June 27, 2004 what is the back spacing? I heard it was something like 4 and 1/4 inch on the rear and 4 and 3/4 on the front I'm really not sure,... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jr_ss Posted July 2, 2004 Report Share Posted July 2, 2004 I beleive that both the 7's and the 8's are a pos. 18mm offset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustPaus_88TSi Posted July 2, 2004 Report Share Posted July 2, 2004 Jr_ss, you are correct .. The back spacing on the SHP rims are.. 9''=5inches 8''=5.25inches I'll have to measure some non-SHP rims when I get a chance... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
