ok this is obviously for mickey owens and ste(techy). Will someone please clarify who is full of dog crap regarding this wheel offset thang. 77mm dont sound right to me either but by just writing "77mm lol!" isnt helping anyone . Come on get it sorted and let me know.

47.5mm is in the right ball park, I think they are all between 45 and 49 mm. I originally had Corsa GSi rims, and the offset was o.k.so they didnt come anywhere near the arches, and they cleared my Cav GSi calipers with no scrubage!

well as i say not all vuaxhall wheels are 49mm offset

i have seen sum with my own eyes that are 46 or 47mm and the gsi ones are 47 so me thinks im not bullshiting

as i say they should go if the arches are sorted
