Wheel Offset For Race Zero

[Guest Turboz]

Hi guys im now at the point where i need some wheels and tyres as the ply circles just wont do for a test run i liked the looks of pro race 1.2 rims 7" fronts and 8" rear but what offset do i need ? As gbs are charging £120 more than demon tweeks....

Et15 front and back

I would ask GBS first as I know both 15 and 37 he's been used in the past.

The 15 will fit onto the 37 hub and give wider wheel base, but not the other way around.

You also need the wheel to conform to IVA

[Guest 2b cruising]

The wheels you have picked, "Dynamics" are fine for IVA as long as they are mounted correctly.

Its track only anyway so no iva i think the power and wheel alignment would be horrible for the road.

I thought that with the wider 8 inch rims the offset would be different ?

[Guest 2b cruising]

No, the anchor point for the wheels should stay in the designed possition if at all possible.

Ideal possision would be centres of rims in line with kingpins/ball joints.

Draw a plan diagram of a steered wheel station and move the rim in and out from centre of the rim and if you imagine turning the steering you will see why.

It end up helping handling and road feedback no end.

Rang the guys at demon tweeks they said measure the distance from the outside of the arch minus 10mm to the front face of the hub then they sort the rest so ive ordered 4 fronts and 4 rears thanks black friday the offer has ended up costing me more.
