Will my new wheel offset work ?

[fozworth]

I've recently bought a set of SSP flat 4 enkei 5 spoke style wheels im going to be fitting a 3" narrowed beam ,the dropped spindles used don't add to the track width. The ET on the wheels is 12 I believe .im hoping this will be ok .worst case I can always sell the wheels on .

I'm not sure if these are 5.5 wide, but I have some 5.5 wide GT 5 spokes and they are 20 offset and fit on my standard beam (mildly lowered), so as these are only effectively 8mm further out and you have 3 inches off the beam, there should be plenty of room I would have thought.

you should be fine on the front, not sure about the back though. ET 12 is quite low. have you tried them on yet ?

No but there a copy of the flat 4 five spoke with same width/et so I'm ok at the rear just didn't want my 3" narrowed beam ive just ordered not to look narrowed with the wheels fitted due to the offset?

 

[AxlFoley]

well its 3" narrowed so it will be narrow, if its to narrow just fit some spacers.

I want it narrow ,I was just worried it might not look narrow due to the wheel offset on the new alloys ,but I think it will be ok
