Cracked Wheel
Hi
I have aftermarket wheels and the rear right one cracked and the repair shop told me it's good change out the wheel rather than weld it because the wheel is become very porous.
My wheel size is 20x8.5 5x112 but I am not sure of the offset on the wheels. I found on Craigslist single replacement wheel for $25 which looks pretty similar but the size is 20x9 .. 5x112 and again not sure of the offset. Now would the 8.5 to 9 inches make a difference on just one wheel .. how does it affect the driving and balance. And also how important is the offset of the wheel?
Thanks.
