Re: Wheel specs for 850?

posted by  someone claiming to be Scott Hart on  Thu Apr 15 18:25 CST 1999 [RELATED]

HI Herman,

You should be able to run up to 8" in width, although 7.5" is preferable as the widest section width you can run is 215. Usually a 215-45-17"

Offset should be 40mm +. Make sure the wheels are hub centric or that the proper hub rings are available as these cars are quite sensitive in this area.

Good Luck,

Scott Hart c/o ipd
