Wheels offset question (1 Viewer)

[TheTimberCruiser]

Is the OEM 18" really +52 mm offset? The overall suspension are almost exactly the same as 120 series. The 120 already having control arm rubbing the tire with 275-285 wide tire. The 120 come stock with +25 mm offset. I think the internet is wrong since my search also shows many site saying the offset is +52 which might be actually +25. Somebody dyslexic must type the info wrong and everybody just copy the wrong database.

I was searching for cheap 18" wheel to experiment with 275/80r18 a few weeks ago. I was offered a set of peeling chrome GX460 wheels for $40. Turned it down because I cannot use +52 offset.

I know this is an old post, but I’m almost certain this is an internet typo. The factory GX wheels(the ones I’ve looked at at least) all have a +25mm offset, not a +52mm.

This is helpful! I’m looking at wheels with similar specs. You think these would work: https://www.tirerack.com/wheels/Whe...ake=Method&wheelModel=MR320&wheelFinish=Black

Seems like a good find but wanted to confirm they’d fit! Appreciate any insight!

Looking at the spec's on the link you posted, and also going to the Method website: https://www.methodracewheels.com/products/320-matte-black?variant=40572356493373 , the only dimension that's different is the offset spacing. The back spacing on my Methods is 4.75" and the wheels you're looking the back spacing is 4.72". That's a 0.03" difference, thirty thousandths should not matter.
Pull the trigger if you like them!
