lawdogg149 · 10-15-2009, 01:23 PM

all are not 38 mm. depends of what size you are talking about. if you go up the the wiki at the top, ALL the info is there for ALL of the wheels.

Looking at a cross section of a wheel. if you have ZERO offset, the hub's mating surface of the wheel will be in the exact middle. if you have a positive offset, the wheel will be "sucked it" or a negitive offset will push the wheel out. Our wheels have a positive offset.

the picture below is a wheel that has a positive offset.

Is that the offset for the SS men or V6 men.

Sir Nuke · 10-15-2009, 10:30 PM

I guess you didn't look at my first post, go to that link and ALL of the information is right there...........it is a table. find the wheels you have and it tells you what the offset is. since you have an SS, the offset is different from front to back. IF you have a V6 and have the 20's or 21's, the offsets are the same as the SS.

What is the width you ordered?

Being for snow tires, they should be narrow, so I will say yes.

If they are 11" wide, nope.

I believe the stock 20x9 rear wheel offset is 40 mm with a center bore of 60.65 mm. The stock 275/40/20 tire is 28.9" in diameter. Hope this helps.

the new tires are 225/60/18 the new wheels are 18X8
