Ideal wheel offset advice

[Ashman 8]

Evening

 

I would like to go up to 7x15 wheels on my 205 and was wondering what the ideal offsets would be? The Pug has stock 1.6 GTi hubs on the front and a 1.9 GTi hubs and beam on the rear.

 

Any advice much appreciated

 

Thanks

typical offset for 7x15 is et15.

 

they will stick out a bit on 1.6 front hubs though, but you can't go for a deeper offset as they will hit the trailing arm on the rear.

Thank you

 

So, aim for ET15 on the rears and a higher ET on the fronts?

A 7” wheel on a 205 needs to be between ET5 and ET10. If you consider a standard 6” wheel is ET18, then add 1” evenly and you need 18-12 = 6. 

 

Speedline SL434 15x6.75 are ET15.
