Rear 10.5" Offset Plase

Can those of you with 20*10.5" rears please tell me what offset you're running?

Thanks!

Originally believed so, but discovered they're 10s. Want them?

^^I knew you had 10" wide wheels on the back. I could tell by the way the tire was sitting on your wheel. If you had 10.5's the tires that you are running would have looked "stretched". To run a 10.5 on the back will require you getting new wheels as well. The Brabus wheels in your style came in a 10.5 AFAIK. But I don't know what offset was offered. Chances are you need to find a wheel that can be built right down to the mm for offset. WORK makes a wheel very similar to this style:

Good luck in your quest.

I already have new wheels in mind. I just want to see what offsets are working. I know you're against posting your rear offset, but I would appreciate it

I would be running a 285-25 and not a 305-25 so I don't think I'll need right down to the mm like you.

I would help you out but I have a 65 and you have a 55. Different offsets unfortunately.

It depends on your wheel design as well. Since you are slammed, I think 42 or 43 would fit. The left rear, if any, is the one that most likely rubs.

Wheel design has nothing to do with the offsets. Wheel design determines brake caliper clearance.

Also a +20 has no chance of fitting a 10.5" wide wheel on the back of the cl unless you like that gay poke look with stretched tires. And considering how low op is, it won't fit.

I also wanted to add to all the haters out there that said that a 10.5" wide wheel with a 305 will rub on a stock body; well, the car is completely dumped due to being parked for 5 months and I took a feeler gauge throughout the lowering process. At no time did the tire touch the fender. Not once. Its all about the perfect fitment.

Could you please just share your rear offset? Thanks. You make yourself look silly by not helping out.

Like I said. They won't help you anyways due to the cars having different offsets. The 55 and 65 have different rear offsets.

110% sure. Just look at the stock offsets of the rears on both cars. The 55 has 9" wide at +44 and the 65 has 9.5" wide at +60 but both wheels have the same fitment at the fender.

Those aren't my offsets for my 10.5's. Those are stock offsets. Mine aren't even close to those.

Great fitment on the front. What wheels are you going with? What size tires? I personally run a 255/305 combo on my car.

I like a little stretch, so I will be doing a 245/35 and 285/30. I have a lot less torque than you
