Found a used set of wheels I’m interested in, but the markings on the back are different than I’m used to. The company is out of business, but it looks like they had multiple offset choices, as well as different Lip sizes. Anyone seen this before?
They are klutch ML7 wheels. They are about an hour away, so I’m trying to figure this out without driving out there. They were on an S2000, but didn’t look like it fit flush, so I can’t just assume S2000. I’ll add more photos as I figure out how. Thanks
Lay a straight edge across the backside edge of the wheel. And measure from the mounting surface to the straightedge, thats your backspace. Google backspace to offset and voila. if theres a number on the wheel like +XX or -XX, thats your offset
Appreciate the response. I don’t have the wheels. I’ll have to see if the guy selling them can measure. Thanks
That’s what I was thinking, but the picture I have with it on his car, they do not tuck. They definitely stick out a little past the fenders. I have no idea how to upload that picture. Says it’s too big to upload. I don’t want to get into a situation like what I’m in now. I stopped driving the truck because the starions rub so bad. 16x8 -10 in front. 16x8 -11 in rear. 245/50/16 all four. Had the tires laying around so I replaced the 215/45/16 that were on it. It was screaming on the highway.
Starions are 16x8 all around?? Worst case scenario with the Honda wheels is you would need to space them out, depends on the look you want I guess. I really like those Klutch ml7s, and they always seem to have a lip so if they stuck out on the s they may fit flush or close on your mini. For reference, my mini has 15x8.5 with 3.75” backspace and they stick out about an inch rear, but more in the front. If he can check the backspace as described above you can at least get an idea of the fit.
