[QUOTE="nehemiah, post: 2208869, member: 29802"] 45 offset sounds pretty normal.. you should be safe with dat. Higher offset means ur rims/tires are going in and away from the fenders. Lower offset means ur rims/tires are going out and towards the fenders. But u only should worry about this if u have done 2 things to ur car: 1) Lowering 2) Big rims and low offset. *PS: i got no exps with Putras :) Btw, i was looking around for some brake DIYs and happened to find this article; [I]Quote: "Huge wheels also increase your car's final drive.
