CL community,

I've found a deal on some Vossen wheels 20''s staggered, but the offset is worrying me a little bit!

Offset is as follows:
+32 Front
+45 Back

These were ordered for an Infiniti, so this is why I am concerned that they won't fit my 3IS un less I do some fender or suspension work. Anyone cares to share their thoughts or expertise with offsets and the 3IS rolling on 20''s?

Thanks

Widths are important to know too.

Width + offsets are used together to find out where the barrel will sit.

20x9 Front
20x10.5 Rear

Also, what's the difference between +32 and +38 for the front wheels?? It seems like most 3IS owners have +38 offset for their front wheels, instead of +32.

Front wheels at 20x9+32 might poke a little from the fenders, 20x9+38 is a little safer where the barrel is farther in the wheel well and less chance of rubbing if lowered.

Lots of members run 20x10.5+45, some say they rub under compression (like speed bumps, pot holes, etc), some don't. Depends on how low you're going.

Thanks of the input, dnasians. I would be lowered on RSR Downs, so I should be safe!

I had the same sizes and offsets but +38 in the front. My buddy has +32 on superdown springs and his was alright so you should be fine as well.
