Hi. Quick question regarding the offset.
When i got the car it has been lowered 60mm, It has 7x17 205/40 alloys and tyres on, the front passenger wheel is very slightly rubbing on the inside lip of the arch, So im just wondering what the offset is ? Also does anyone have an idea how much it would cost for the arch rolled?

If you take one of your wheels off it will have the offset stamped into the inside of the rim somewhere. It's the ET number you're looking for.

As for cures to the rubbing, raising to a more sensible height or switching to 195mm width tyres would probably sort your issues.

I'm having no problems at all with 205/40/17 on 7*17" alloys on et12

All arches are rolled though (which was def. needed)


*edit* also lowered +- 55mm
