Im looking at these Ruff wheels for my g/f's 2000 Trans Am



They only offer the rear 18x9.5 in a +45mm, +40mm, and +20mm offset. Which one do i need??

Front 18x 8.5 they offer +20mm and +30mm offset. Which one do i need for the front??

Rear 9.5" with a 40 mm offset. (45 mm would work too)

Front 8.5 with a 30 mm offset.

You could run four 9.5's with the 40 mm offset. . . . Just FYI.

I have a 02 T/A. Would these fit my car? Will they stick out? If so, how far? Also do you think they would look good on my car. It is silver. Thanks

The 10" with a 38 mm offset fits out back, but not up front.

I have 17x9.5 TT2's on the front of my TA now, but they're in bad shape and need to be replaced. I saw 15x4 TT2's on Summit and was thinking about doing those as a front rim to match my rear 17X11 TT2's. The 15x4's have 1.5 inches of backspacing and a -25.00 offset with the correct bolt pattern. Any issues with those fitting the front. I have seen alot of guys are buying the 15x4 Summit stars which have 1.75 backspacing and -19.00 offset. Thanks for any info.

I'm going with 18x9 and 18x10 what offsets would work and fit/look best for my car?Thanks for the help i'm sure this question has probably been asked a hundred times,but i got tired of reading all the posts.

I've always wondered about this

You should not need to know both, since the measurements are related.

I believe most street wheels are sold using offset and drag wheels are based on back space.

ok. i bought some 17x11 tt2's from tom a year ago but dont remember the backspacing and offset. but not im gonna run a 9" narrower 2" on each side. what would the offset be if i wanted the tire in the same spot with the new rear end?

11" TT2's have a positive 46 mm offset . . . 2" equals 50.8 mm

Take 46 mm minus 50.8 mm and you get a NEGATIVE 4.8 mm, and there is your new needed offset.

Looking at some ruff racing 278's, fronts are 19x8.5 35mm offset and 19x9.5 45mm offset. I am pretty sure they will fit fine but needed to get a professional opinion. thanks in advance.

I would also like to know if the 45mm offset on a 19x9.5 rim will work. Looking at a set of HP Evo II.

Thanks

I'm guessing this wont work, but what would it look like with a 18x8.5 +40, and 18x9.5 +20(BMW wheels)? Having to use some temp wheels, and I know someone who has those for cheap until I can afford my tires for the wheels I'm getting.
