Otherwise maybe just consult a tire and wheel shop that can tell you. |

Offset is the measure of distance the mating surface of the hub is from the center of the wheel's width (distance between outside (face) of wheel and the inside edge of the wheel). Offset is typically measured in mm, and a + offset means the hub is closer to the face of the wheel, and a - offset means the hub is closer to the inside of the wheel. Most aftermarket wheels you buy will need to have about a +35 to +40 offset (I believe that is for 8" wide wheels- Wider wheels should have a lower offset).

I see, I do want at least an 8" wide rim, and you're saying that +35 +40 is a good setup, I just want something that is right for sure before I spend the big money, there's no supras around i'm in redneckville idaho, so I don't have much to go off of. Also being in small rural redneck towns, the only wheel and tire dealers are small time and don't have much of an idea, they just work on lifted pickups, they haven't ever had to put a lowering kit on a car for instance, so I need your guys' help I will torque my own wheels b/c these idiots don't have a clue.

Did a little bit of quick research, and it looks like that a common offset for 8" wide wheels is +30, which should keep that wheel tucked in pretty nice under the car without hardly any sticking out. 7" and 7.5" range between +35 and +40

Even though most people think they must choose a hybrid vehicle to be truly eco friendly, consider some of the other options contained in this article. Depending on your driving style and budget, you might find you can make an equal contribution to the environment simply by choosing a more economical or more emissions-friendly vehicle.
