Wheel offset options

Hi All,

I'm looking at getting some aftermarket 22" wheels. Either square (so I can rotate) or staggered for a more aggressive look. Haven't decided yet which way I want to go but need some advice on offsets.

If I go with square setup, I'm thinking 22 x 10.5 all around. What is the right offset I should go for that will get me fairly flush? I'm thinking maybe 38 offset would be good?

For a staggered setup, I think i'll end up with 22 x 9 Front and 22 x 10.5 Rear, what would be best offsets for this setup?

Also, if anyone has pics of their staggered or square aftermarket setup, I'd love to see them!

My wheels are being built as I type. They took measurements for a precise fitment. Might be ready next week. I'll see if they can give the offsets when I pick them up.

I don't know the details yet.

I forgot to mention, Forgestar makes their wheels with custom offsets and they are reasonably priced.

This wheel comes in 22 all the way up to a 12" width. Give them a call.

A 40mm offset would be pretty flush for the square setup. For the staggered set up your offset can be 37mm - 48mm depending on the wheel, how aggressive you wanted it to look, etc.

Thanks for the response. For staggered I'm hearing I could go as low as 20 in the rear on a 10.5"? Are you able to validate that? I have the m-sport package so fender flares give me a bit more space to fill to get flush I believe.

No problem! 21mm offset would be the lowest for the staggered rear with fender flares.

Awesome, thanks. What do you recommend on a 22x9 front to have flush?

I may be hitting you up for some quotes on a few sets of wheels I'm considering.

Anytime! I recommend a 40mm offset for the fronts.
Shoot me a pm or an email (steve@n4sm.com) I'll take care of you.
