Bob Bowling Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Oddly enough I was about to ask the same question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Bowling Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Can anyone help with this?I have ?dunlop alloys and I don't think the offset is right. After a wander round a car show on Sunday with some feeling of other peoples wheel arches I don't have as much clearance between tyre and arch as people with steel wheels.Would like to set my mind at rest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they 5.5" or 6" wide? My alloys are 6" and have an ET of 13, which is just about perfect, just missing everything on 175/70 tyres (except the sometimes the bulkhead when reversing and using lots of lock). I have a roto rear end even though the cars looks like a Mk1.Sorry this doesn't answer the original question - never owned standard Vitesse wheels!Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems unlikely that 3.5" wheels would be only 0.5"?There are several websites that say the 4.5" steels are 0.5" offset but you've only got to read what's stamped on the rim to know they are wrong!
