Wheel offset questions.
Wheel offset questions.
When I bought My car, it had 235/60/14 American Racing Chrome Cholo Special's On it, And they looked okay because the Springs were worn out, and the car effectivly was lowerd as a result.
I Have since replaced the rear springs with SLP OEM takeoff's and it raised the rear of the car back up to stock height, and made those puny 14" wheels look like triple Gold Daytons. ( low-ride-er, got a little higher...)
So I grabbed the 4 225/60/15's I had sitting in the Garage off my Wrecked 79 firebird, and Slapped em On. They are a No frills Stamped steel Rim, and they Look okay.
My question is, What Sort Of Offset problems am i going to Run into ? It was dark when I did this, So any subtle misalignments Would have escpaped me In the close confines of the garage.
Are second gen Wheels Offset in a similar manner to ours, because On first inspection, The wheels Looked to be set Up fine.
Lastly, I bought a set of 83 Z28 15"x7" wheels On ebay, and Am waiting for them to be Deliverd, So this setup is temporary at best. I am mostly wondering out of Curiosity.
Thanks
