25/10/08 06:22 AM25/10/08 06:22 AM #1 Looking at getting a set of wheels for the ute from the states, just have no clue as to what sort of offset would be accepted on it.Im looking at getting some 18x9s on the front with these specs. ( 5x4.50 , Offset +24, back spacing 5.94")and the rears 18x10.5". (5x4.50, Offset +30, back spacing 6.68")Now ive tried searching and found offset seems to be around 30-40mm for the ba's?Does that mean the fronts have no chance of fitting or would you have to modify something to make them fit?Cheers if anyone can help as the backspacing really threw me and im just more confused now :/

I believe "keith for wheels" also has this rims available so they should be able to confirm what will definatly fit.Chris
