Ok, here is ANOTHER thing I don't know much about or understand.

Wheel sizes are easy enough.

Bolt patterns are easy enough.

But I don't understand off-sets and backspacing.

Can someone break down what they mean, what they do and why it is important to get it right!

Thanks for help.

This is a good page I read the other day on offsets.

Good link, thanks!

Ok now that I understand OFFSET. Does the LC have a pre-set offset? Do I have to search for rims that have a certain degree of pos/neg offset?

I think I am going to order these.....

Granite Alloy GA10 Flat Black Painted

They will look awesome. If you do the option in the bottom right for "view on vehicle" it actually shows a 2008 LC with those rims on...LOOKS HOT!


UPDATE:

I just placed an order for them....they looked so awesome on the LC when I did their flash thingy.

The one thing I was looking for was a FLAT ALL BLACK rim......so these will be perfect!

Those do look great...not for me though on a silver car, but your's will look fantastic.

Of course you got the 22" version with low-pro's, right?

You know if you put it in 4LO and throw crawl control on in 1, it will look like you are ghost riding with all that brake dive!
