wheel question
I'm looking to replace my stock 18" ls wheels, and don't really know what's up as far as the offset measurement. Can someone please help me out with this and let me know what I should be looking for?

Thanks. All I really need to know is what offset to get to replace the steel wheels if I don't want it to change

Well, your stock 18" wheels are 18 x 7.5, but I don't personally know what the offset is on them. I'm sure someone will come along that does. If you're going aftermarket, why not upgrade to something a little wider or upgrade to a 20" wheel or something??? Something like these are pretty nice....

My ASA wheels are:
Offset: 32mm, Backspacing: 5.78", Bolt Pattern: 5-120 Tire Rack gives you all this information. Just enter your year/make/model of vehicle and it will tell you what fits. John B.
