99 HIGH CLASS
Hi all,
My name is Mats and I live in Sweden and I'm new to this forum. I have a 99 High Class and I'm wondering what the offset should be on a new set of wheels? 0, +15, +30 or???
Thanks
Mats
 






Welcome to the site Mats... I am not exactly sure what a High Class is. Do you know the Width and backspacing of your Rim?

Check out Wheel offset to see how offset is calculated. As you can see the offset depends on the rim width and backspacing...

Offset= (Centerline - Backspacing)
For the rims below that would be
1) 7" / 2 - 4.5" = -1.0" (-25.4mm)
2) 8" / 2 - 3.75" = 0.25" (6.4mm)
3) 10" /2 -3.75" = 1.25" (31.8mm)
