Default will this work?

ok, i know this has been asked to many times but i just wanted to see wat you guys think of this

basically, how will these wheels fit with these spec:

OZ Racing SuperLeggera III

front: 18-9.5 5x4.75 bolt pattern 46mm
Rear: 18-10.5 5x4.75 bolt pattern 33mm

I want the wheels to tuck nice in the wells, no more than an inch (way to much!!) out the wells.

I will be rolling the lips and BFH the inner walls.

they weigh about 24.3 front, 25.1 rear........i sont know how much the stocker 16inchr'z weigh but how much of a difference is there?

thanks guys

Hmmm, close . . . the 46 mm are fine. 33 mm are what worries me. I have 38 mm offset 10.5" wide wheels on my Red SS, and I feel that is the SMALLEST offset to go with. Check out my FIKSE Photo Album . . .

thanks, now a 33mm to a 38mm isnt tht much of a difference.will they stickout to much?

Also, wat is our offset in your front wheels or they the same from the rears? if so, is a 38mm in front stick out to far.

I just want to put the fattes, lightest wheels possible without stickout out the fenders.

Both my 9.5" and 10.5" wide wheels have a 38 mm offset. IMHO the most aggressive offset without the tire/wheel sticking out.

thanks again.....so in theory a 46mm front offset will make the wheel stick out less?
