Pdiddy

Hi,

I have 20 inch rims on my car and the front two wheels are almost touching the spindles on the upper control arm ( V-shaped looking thing attached to body), please correct me if I'm wrong. It barely rubs, only going up driveways or full turns.

I'm planning on dropping it with Tein CS Coilovers, will this be an problem and make it worse when I lower the car? Thanks for your help.

That's what I'm runnin with no rubbing at all. Gotta be the offset. I'm dropped 1.8F/1.3r with no rubbing

Where can you look up what offset your wheels are? I have rims on my car but I was never told what offset they are. I am just curious to know.

sometimes it will say it on the back lip of the rim...should have a sticker

Oh ok I will check to see if mine have it.

The formula for calculating offset is the overall width of the wheel divided by 2 equals the centerline. The centerline value minus the backspace dimension equals the offset.
remember to convert from inches to milimeters.
